2011_CORESAVER

Last year ( 2010 ) on Moab's Sovereign Trail I managed the "Mother of all Endo's"  off a 4 foot ledge, face planting myself in luckily the only bit of sand in miles.  The end result was a cracked sternum and 3 cracked ribs. The cause of all these cracked bones, was .... my camera!.

I have big plans for 2011, and have decided to focus a bit more on … [Read more...]

How many of you know someone with Diabetes?.. Here's my story: When I started riding at the age of 16 … [Read more...]
