A week of bicycle touring the Moselle and Rhine Rivers. Two of Europe’s most popular cycling routes. Pedaling down the Moselle River from Luxembourg City to Koblenz and then up the Rhine.
I decided to enjoy this creamy honey-colored IPA while breaking down my Surly Troll. So I put the green long-haul tank up on the work stand and started the chore of pulling it apart to purge its nooks and crannies of gunk and corrosion (and repurpose my Rohloff to a new build).
With the start of the Tour De France, the pinnacle of bicycle racing, the media world is ablaze with stories related to the sport and it’s rich history. Listening to All Things Considered over the weekend, my ears perked when they did a short segment on the peculiar second cousin to the Tour—the randonée.
Last week VA and I pet/house-sitted in Raleigh, NC and checked out some Triangle Area singletrack while we were there (I’d recommend the New Light Trails). While in Rome we also imbibed some tasty local brews.

During my reintegration into American society, I thought I’d spend a few days hopping around North Carolina to visit family and friends… and while at it, take in five of my favorite mountain bike loops…
As I was patting myself on the back for making it across the canal and to my destination, I wasn’t really expecting much from Panama City itself. But while rolling through and catching a glimpse, I knew that it required further exploring… plus trip stats.
After our Nicoya bike adventure we tore through the remainder of Costa Rica and most of Panama in 13 days with merely 2 rest days in between…
A 208 mile (335 km) off-pavement adventure over some of the most challenging and rewarding terrain of our trip…
