Been a great start to the year working on different projects. If you haven't checked it out yet, take a few minutes to enjoy Five Ten's own Eric Lawrenuk's full length movie "Alchemy." Its got a few 510 athletes in it and my section is near the end around the 36 minute mark. Great to work with Eric on this and the movie has a cool vibe to it. http://www.pinkbike.com/news/Alchemy-World-Online-Premiere-video-2013.html Other projects include "Chasing Nugs," a story that I'm working on with Harookz and Ross Measures. Project has been 2 years in the making...

Whitewater Kayaker by morning, Mountain Biker by afternoon. In the winter months when the rivers are frozen over or its just too cold to paddle, I find myself spending a little more time on my bike. That was the case today... thirty degrees, frosty, with a little bit of ice on the roads. Determined to get some exercise, we made it out to ride some local trails. This was my first chance to really try out my Five Ten Hellcat SPD's; My Hellcats kept me nice and warm while providing BOTH sticky rubber and SPD compatibility. Awesome....
