    Goodbye 2016, Hello 2017!

    Byfastk9dad December 31, 2016August 30, 2025

    2016 was a difficult year for me on and off the bike. My cycling didn’t go exactly as planned and much of that was due to my fiancee’s auto accident and resulting (slow) recovery which is still a work in progress. I would have like to spend more time in the…

    ’twas the night before Christmas…

    Byfastk9dad December 24, 2016March 30, 2019

    …and all through the house, not a crankset was turning, not even a 1x. Hrmm… ok so it needs a little work. It has been a little while since I last posted, but as the rest of the house is asleep on this Christmas eve, I’m a bit high on energy…

    My first DNF

    Byfastk9dad September 7, 2016September 20, 2025

    Well it was bound to happen at some point, so no point in hiding it. I arrived at the PCX course much earlier this week to get in some warm up laps and I was feeling pretty good, even though I ate it on a soft corner right in front of…

    Byfastk9dad September 1, 2016September 20, 2025

    Last night was my second CX race. Due to travel and other life circumstances I had not been on my bike, any bike, in a week. I was hoping to arrive a bit early and get some good warm up laps in but that didn’t happen either and I had…

    Tonight I became a bike racer

    Byfastk9dad August 23, 2016September 20, 2025

    Yep, thats right, tonight I actually entered my first sanctioned bike race so I need a license and all that jazz. However this was not a road race as most of you might think. No, no, if you saw my previous “Tire Teaser” post you might have an inkling. I…

    Fatigue

    Byfastk9dad August 20, 2016September 20, 2025

    This past week certainly has not been a banner week for me on the bike, actually the last 2 weeks have been pretty poor time and mileage wise. Why? It’s because I’ve been fatigued, but not what you think. By that I mean I haven’t been physically fatigued but rather…
