How Effective is Training if you Don't Know Where You Are, or Where You're Headed?
We've all been there; determined that this is the time to push through
to that next level of fitness. Sometimes we change our diets, sometimes
we change our fitness routine, sometimes we try new products, new
coaches, or new cycling routes. We pour our energy into it, giving
ourselves a hundred percent believing if we just stick to it, it'll
come. But often it simply does not. How are we to figure out why?

"Cycling is about two things: pain and revenge. It's about going through so much pain that you want revenge." Bob Roll
By
now, most of you know who Bob Roll is, but in case you haven't seen his
(in)famous color commentary on the Tour de France coverage (or Tour
"Day Frants", as Bob would say), a little background is in order. He
made a name for himself as one of the original members of the 7-Eleven
Cycling Team, raced with Lance Armstrong, was on Greg LeMond's Z Team
and finally became a cycling commentator for the Versus sports
network's coverage of the Tour de France. But Bob was different than
most cyclists. Bob was a character, through and through.

First of a Three Part Series
Only
have time for a short Moab break but want to feel like a vacation? Try
a Moab brea-cation! There are endless ways to spend those few extra
hours that will leave you with breath-taking memories. In this first
part of a three part series, we offer activities that will stimulate
your sense and sooth your soul. From a kid-friendly walk in ancient
dinosaur tracks, cool river running to experiencing the famous
Slickrock mountain bike trail as it was originally created, on a dirt
bike; the options will ensure your next visit to Moab will be unlike
any other.
Rivers (summertime cool-down):
August
in Moab brings the heat, so we'll start with a few hours cooling down
with a Colorado River trip, known locally as "The Daily". The red rock buttes provide a quintessential backdrop to an unexpected oasis of water, wildlife and rapids. In fact, the exhilarating rapids will be the only distraction from the spectacular canyon carved by this might river.
