As mountain and road riding start to float in off the horizon, I thought I'd share this.
Priorities, priorities
CONCERNED ROADIE
Dear Abby,
I've never written to you before, but I really need your advice. I
have suspected for some time now that my wife has been cheating on me.
I've witnessed the usual signals; the phone rings, but if I answer,
the caller hangs up. My wife has been going out with 'the girls' a lot
recently, although when I ask their names she always says, "Just some
friends from work, you don't know them."
I always try to stay awake to look out for her coming home, but I
usually fall asleep.
I think deep down I just didn't want to know the truth, but last
night she went out again and I decided to really check on her.
Around midnight, I decided to hide in the garage behind my road &
mountain bikes so I could get a good view of the whole street when
she arrived home from a night out with 'the girls'.
When she got out of the car she was buttoning up her blouse, which
was open, and she took her panties out of her purse and slipped them on.
It was at that very moment, crouching behind my bike, I noticed a slight
crack in the downtube, two inches behind the headset.
Is this something I can fix myself, or should I take it back to the
bike shop?

This is a couple of years old. And we're looking a little dorky. But it gives you a good idea of what we're all about.

I'm posting some press releases for the upcoming Kootenay Coldsmoke Festival here in Nelson at the end of February. This is really turned into one of the highlight events of the winter season, and we're honoured to be title sponsors along with Mountain Gear and our good friends at Arc'teryx. Make the trip, the event (and the Kootenays) are due for a walloping dump.

Well, we took our popular (in Nelson) Backyard Booty show to Revelstoke this past weekend (Jan. 10). We had the cards stacked against us a bit. No one knew where the Knights of Pythias Lodge was (that's where we booked). There were other events happening including the CAA's annual fund raising auction. But no matter, where there's a will there's a way. We wanted to introduce the show in a non-pretentious way and managed to attract 60 or so Revelstokians. Young and old, boarders and skiers, hairy people and not so hairy. It turned out to be a beauty. Heather Lea from Revy told a great story, the shows had the audience on the edge of their seats, and we shredded big snow on a MASSIVE mountain all weekend (www.revelstokemountainresort.com).
Revelstoke's coming of age. Look for the Backyard Booty to return to Revy bigger and better next year.

La Ticla, Mexico, Dec. 8, 2008
Under a long roof of tinder dry, sun baked palm fronds, sitting on a white plastic table beside a giant bottle of tequila was KMC's winter issue. I had biked to MEC on Main St. in Vancouver three times in hopes of getting a copy before leaving for Mexico but it wasn't out yet. After two weeks, a gun point robbery, a shaman in the trees, and some nice fucking waves I found it in a small town on the Pacific Coast. Nelsonites - they're everywhere. Andale.
