Start practice officially started for me today on the 100th day to Vancouver. Sacramento's News Channel 3 Deirdre Fitzpatrick took over a starters roll and dropped the gate.  (For some reason I'm not able to load the video here so take a look: http://twitter.com/drahlves )

Congress is bailing out everyone. So let's give some tribute to people bailing. Got a good wipeout, yard sale, crash, wreck, endo, digger or whatever else you call it? Then post it!

Maybe I'll pick you to win some of my gear.

 Stoked I got through a ride without any failures.  Day 1 on my fresh new Santa Cruz Nomad was cut short by my chain breaking.  Day 2 I snapped off my rear derailer.  Bike sat for a few days then I got back on it and hit up a sick trail Grant Barta took me to.  I've heard lots about Dirty Harry, but never got out there.  From the top there is an incredible view of Lake Tahoe on one side and on the other Glenshire/Truckee and Prosser, Boca and Stampeed Lakes.  We even found some snow up high.  Dirty Harry is a fun ride with smooth banks, jumps and rock drops.  Heard there is a ton more up there and that wasn't even scratching the surface.  This is the best time of the year to mtn bike.  Dirt is tacky.  Or maybe it's my new ride.
