see ya in Lima !

i'll be heading on over to Lima this coming weekend with the whole fam-damily for the 2nd annual Backcountry Bicycle Festival, which has rides planned within the Italian and Lima Peak areas of the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest. Both of the planned rides contain miles and miles of the infamous Continental Divide Trail. Those in the know-know that the trails down in this region are remarkably good and the scenery, breath taking. Also, in between rides there will also be live music, good food, and locally brewed beer. I'm expecting a fantastic weekend of bike riding and hanging out with good pals and we hope to see some of you over there. I'll be the guy in the over stuffed VW van full of kiddos, firewood, and 5 gallons of Bitterroot Brewery's IPA !

also this weekend is the Bitterroot Classic Triathalon and we will have our very own Red Barn Riley in attendence to provide mechanical support for the racers. We wish all of you racers good luck in the Valley's premier triathalon race.
