Here's my Big Dogs!


Those stumps I call thighs are what make me able to pedal for 8 - 10 hours straight. I don't know how much bigger they've gotten since I started this little trip but suffice it to say that the when the body is put under progressive stress (850 miles of pedaling a mountain bike with 60 lbs of gear on it up and down hills) and given proper nutrition and rest, it will respond..... by getting bigger and stronger.

Even at 47!

So now when I say - I'm about to cut the Big Dogs loose! - you'll know what I'm talking about!

Tomorrow me and the Big Dogs will be making a 31 mile run to Clovis NM and when we start it'll be 11 degF..... ain't no Hill for a Stepper!
