Get Well Soon, Kiel!

Well, good news and bad news. The good news is that the Little Monster was riding awesome in Bisbee... totally crushing it. The bad news is that he got tangled up in a crash yesterday and had to take a ride in the ambulance. From the way it sounds, he's doing okay — no broken bones at least — but he definitely took a pretty nasty spill. Let's all hope he recovers quickly. He should be home sometime this afternoon so give him a call if you can to check in and wish him well.

Wildlife at the CAF

Many of you know about Pitchfork, our imaginary cat, who lives at the CAF, but he's not the only furry beast who likes to stop by the Fort from time to time. This morning, I woke up around 7 or so, a bit hung over from an amazing night of karaoke, and was very surprised by what I saw out the window. No, I wasn't surprised by the several inches of snow we got overnight... that seems to be normal for this spring. I saw that there were three deer bedded down in our yard! On one hand, I find the deer to be completely out of control here in Boulder — they traipse around peoples' yards like they're in the National Park, and are generally a hazard. However, I was kind of amused by these three hanging out in our yard, in the snow.
I'll be escaping this crazy weather on the weekend to go to Fruita with the lady for a mountain bike race. Should be fun. I'll watch out for the deer too.
Oh, P.S., the Little Monster ended up 25th at Redlands... sweet!

Killin' it at Redlands

Well, it's been quite some time since we updated the ol' CAF blog. Sorry about that. Anyways, very exciting news: the Little Monster has got the Redlands Classic race by the balls and is absolutely sawing people's legs off out there in Cali. The race just started yesterday, and he threw down an impressive 27th place in the uphill TT. Badass! He didn't even get beat by Mara Abbott either!! Stay tuned for more info on his exploits. Collegiate nationals are at Fort Collins this May, so make sure to come out and cheer him on. Let's bring a stars-and-bars jersey home to the Fort this spring! Meeeow.


He beat this chatch.
