Skypark was originally a winter wonderland theme park. It reopened in 2016 featuring shopping, food, a Santa Clause chalet, wedding and catering accommodations, and hiking and biking trails.

The start of the year is usually a pretty cold time. It may not be as chilly as Chicago or Vermont, but we reach below freezing temperatures fairly often and it chills our Summer-acclimated bones. That's why it was a real treat to have a weekend of 68ºf clear skies to get out and enjoy the bike with the family.

As many are painfully aware, I have been off the bike (and off the computer) for a bit more than a month due to an injury sustained on the bike. This much relaxation and healing is definitely a challenge. How have I filled the days?

It’s been an interesting holiday season to say the least! We had a great time during the holidays, but one ride in particular between Christmas and New Year’s Eve was rough. Watch the video to learn more!

As a video nerd, I’m always curious about the latest hardware. When a new camera hits the stores, it takes a much stronger man than I to just watch other people use it. So I created an excuse to purchase the new GoPro Hero 8 Black.

To celebrate my history as a super nerd, and to celebrate the opening of the very last film in the “Skywalker Saga”, I thought I would post a little bit of history regarding my adventures in line for the Star Wars prequels over 20 years ago.

As a person who grew up loving my bike(s), I have a desire to share with the younger generation all of the wonder and fun that riding has to offer. To that end, I try to donate one bike every year to a kid around the holidays. It’s easy, it’s not too expensive, and it is an great way to expose any community not just to bike building but also local charitable organizations.

Since I still have almost all of the original production files, I have decided to quickly replace the audio tracks with stock music from Youtube Audio Library. I’m also fixing some of the issues that made those old videos hard to watch.
