I’m a strong advocate of “right to repair” (a consumer’s right to repair things they purchase themselves). I do quite a bit of that at work and companies like @icombat and @thebattlecompany (both excellent domestic manufacturers of laser tag equipment) are great to work with and work with us on parts to keep our rental gear in the hands of our customers. #righttorepair #workflow #lasertag #lasertagsource #rentshiprepeat #work #repair #icombat #workflow

Ready for those cooler temps! My last few rides have felt like I was underwater! Still... summer heat means you can hit them trails pretty much every day! #cycling #mtb #mountainbiking #iamspecialized #summer #virginia #getoutside #woods #humid #stumpjumper

Heavy traffic near the house today causing minor delays to my work commute. #turkeys #wildlife #urbanwildlife #commutelife #virginia #roanoke #roanokeva

Spent a little time this morning pooting around Pulaski. Rolled down to the Hoover Mountain Bike Area where they’ve tucked a few trails in around a former pigment mining operation. Here they mined pigments for sepia and umbers (among others) until a technique was developed to pull the same pigments from mining waste making the operations obsolete. I also forgot how pleasantly not busy the New River Trail is. Most greenways are crowded with folks looking to get outdoors, here you can travel miles before you see another human! #pulaski #cycling #virginia #newrivertrail #newrivertrailstatepark #iamspecialized #mining #pigment #gopro

Pretty good breakfast today! Rolling on the “big squish” (Stumpjumper). #mountainbiking #mtb #iamspecialized #carvinscove #virginia #roanoke #stumpjumper #getoutside #gopro

Few things do the body and mind as much good as some time in the woods! While my pink Epic is my all-time favorite bike my Stumpy is basically a carnival on 2 wheels! #mtb #mountainbiking #iamspecialized #singletrack #getoutside #stumpjumper #lynchburgva #virginia #woods

Quest to See America!

Years back i was on a plane returning home from Europe. A Gentleman from Germany was heading to the states for holiday and started quizzing me about places in the States. Most of the places i had not seen myself. Eventually he asked me in frustration, “Why would you go to another country when you haven’t seen your own?”

On that flight was born my Quest to See America!
