Some bike racing and some other stuff. Super good high country summer along with some time with family in the Grand Canyon. Also lots of tracklocross let’s go. Feeling very fortunate to be able to do all of these things in such a cool place while also pretending to be a rocket scientist. Considering trying some cyclocross now…

Which one’s worse, saddle sores or a broken neck? @jacob_hora has experience with both.

At 15, @jacob_hora was riding his bike to school every day. At 16, he was in Kyrgyzstan racing the 12,000-mile Silk Road Mountain Race with his mentor and ultra-endurance legend Jay Petervary. A year later, he was riding solo across Armenia with a bad case of trench foot. It’s safe to say that Jacob didn’t have a standard high school experience. Now a senior at Fort Lewis College, he juggles classes with events like the Tour Divide and the Colorado Trail Race. You can listen to his full conversation with Payson in our latest episode wherever you get podcasts.

Turns out splitting 4+ cords of woods before showing up to shoot a 125 mile race starting at 10pm and really just wanting to take a nap isn't a great photo strategy. The wood splitting was a planned necessity, and the @vaportrail125 was a last minute decision. Ah well, watching the sunrise form 12,000 feet made up for just about the rest.

So stoked to have no schedule conflict this year and be back shooting the Colorado Trail Race for @bikepackingcom this week! It was a heater out there today, and I saw 99 on my truck thermometer near Buff Creek but the alpine was very nice. @jacob_hora coming down the backside of Georgia Pass in the last juicy rays of sunset light today.

Starting my last semester of college in just a few weeks, so just trying to make the most of the rest of summer. I’ve been really stoked on riding my bike and all of the new places it has taken me. Been putting a lot of time into training as well as my job, which has been quite rewarding.

I love this place I get to call home and the places I’ve gotten to explore, as well as the friends I’ve made along the way. While I don’t yet know what’s next, one thing is clear….Durango feels like home and I’m not yet ready to leave.

Looking forward to more fun rides and times with great people!

Highlights from a few solid weeks of training. It’s been just over a year since I catapulted myself over a mountain and hit my head, so I’m feeling extra grateful for these recent adventures.

I’m really excited to test how my fitness has been coming along this weekend at the @focofondo. 118 miles of full gas racing will let me know right where the legs are at.
