Me and my old lady

Me and my old lady

This is from a trip I took with my old lady and some friends - the essence of me mountain biking is spending time with people I like. The physical challenge and nature around me are secondary to the time with friends.

2005 Yeti 575 - Large - Raw

<em>Evan</em>'s picture
By Evan on 8/3/2006

Well folks, I'm doing it. I'm selling my beloved Yeti 575! Not to worry, I'll be getting another XC bike as soon as this one sells. Out with the old, in with the new, that sort of thing. This bike is a great riding, all-mountain, do-everything sort of ride. She weighs in right around 27 lbs with hydraulic disc brakes and nearly 6" of plush suspension front and rear!

Here's a parts breakdown of her, so you know what you're getting into:

Come on, everyone can benefit from a little coaching

By walker on 7/27/2006 on walker's blog

Do you need a cycling coach? Is it time to re-focus on your skills? Are you getting rusty?

I have a friend who just switched coaches. I was shocked to learn he actually had a coach to begin with.

"What do they help you with?" I asked.

"She keeps me focus and I don't overtrain," he answered.

"Well, since when is overtraining a bad thing, I ask you? OK, it is, but I can control it. I don't think I need a coach to tell me to stop training," I said.

"I doubt that, Walker," he said.

The truth is, a coach might help me. What about you?

I looked into a couple of coaching programs to see what they are all about. The Peaks Coaching Group has specialized coaches that seem to focus on helping you push the outer boundaries of the aerobic frontier. They have a surprising number of athletes using their services: Jeremiah Bishop, Nick Waite, Matt Cooke. These are all consistent podium finishers.
