The main motivator is without a doubt me deciding to finally attempt the Tour Divide this year. Not only am I hoping it helps keep my motivated knowing the whole internetz knows I am being lazy.
Another big motivator is in my search for info on training, gear choices, general prep for the race I have noticed it can be pretty difficult finding anything on the topic so I plan on posting up what I am doing for training, gear choices, and since my advise is based on nothing but assumptions as I have never done a ride close to this magnitude I am also planning on sharing every link I find helpful in my quest for knowledge.
Well, now that you know what I am about and what this blog is about, I hope that you find it mildly amusing, and maybe even a little helpful. Try not to take any of my advise as fact as on paper I have no business doing this ride this year as I am broke, out of shape, and have a baby due middle of August, as just a few examples, one thing I do have is youth and enthusiasm so at the very least we will see how far that can get a person. I know at the very least it gives me another thing to amuse myself with when I am not doing something bike related or bugging the hell out of my WONDERFULL girlfriend Jessica (make sure to read that last part twice babe...)
For now I leave you with the coolest x-mas gift I have gotten in a while...
