Gambrill Night Ride

Last Wednesday night a group of us got together for a night ride at Gambrill State Park in Frederick. Below I posted some pics. We had a good time riding getting in about 9 miles. Only one flat (thanks Trevor) and no other mechanicals.

After the ride we went to Brewer's Alley for $1.50 pints and some awesome pizza. All in all a great night can't wait to do it again.

Happy Mother's Day

I would like to say Happy Mother's Day to my beautiful wife Sarah. She makes my life easy and helps a great deal at the Shop. I couldn't do it without you baby.

12 Hours of Lodi Farm

Well the race didn't quite go as planned. Trevor and I picked up a third and decided to do Single Speed 3 Man team. After two mechanicals in the first four laps that put us about 40 minutes behind the leaders we settled in. Had a great time, the team got 12 laps in which was our goal. We placed 4th in our class and 24th out of 76 starting teams. The course was fast, fun and twisty. Can't wait for next year.

Lodi Farms

Packing up for the 12 hours of Lodi Farms mountain bike race. Midnight Saturday until noon Sunday. My friend Trevor and I will compete in the Duo division where we got 4th place last year. Hopefully we are prepared to represent Family Bike Shop again. I'll post an update on the race next week.

Repairs are crazy right now at the shop. And bikes are going out the door almost faster than we can build them. Anyone out there need a job. Stop by and see me.

Keep the rubber side down.
