Tucson Arizona - NNR

This is amazing how I am about to post this article from someone I consider a Friend. A friend from all the other side of the states - Tucson Arizona. I had to just google map this and he is 2 Thousand 500 miles away. That is equivalent to 40 hours by car and about 235 hours by bike lol. 

(I apologize in advance if you don't enjoy my style of "freeblogging" meaning I say what's on my mind, for those who don't mind it. Thank you and hope you stay with me on this NNR journey)

Justin from Instagram @jweeeks reach out to me regarding the NNR Decals and I was please enough to throw a stamp on it. Big ups to Justin for taking the time and effort to take these lovely photos and sharing this with us, I appreciate it a lot and would love to keep all of our readers informed from Tucson Arizona !!

Never Not Riding in Tucson

I have to ride everyday or I feel like something’s missing, Tucson is a great place to ride. There are so many different trails, routes, and variations of rides. Cycling is a year round thing in Tucson, the sun is out majority of the year and rarely ever rains.  Tucson is a great place to ride because if I’m able to take it here and not want to bike in another city, then it must be. I wouldn’t wake up for a morning ride at 6am everyday to ride, because it wouldn’t be worth it to go.  I ride on sick days. I ride on rest days. I ride everyday.

I love climbing on track bikes because it’s more challenging. I like to ride big ratios, because it makes me stronger. Tucson has a full range of climbs from Cat 5 all the way to HC climbs. Tucson feeds my urge to Never Not Ride because of the beautiful landscape, perfect weather, and the vast amounts of routes.

originally we wanted to hit up the Palisades interstate Park along the 9w but someone name ...... doesn't have a lid. (not to name any names in specific, lol) but you know who you are. lol But since we all wanted to put some miles in. There is nothing better than our favorite and somewhat Local Bike Trail

Putnam - Croton on Hudson

Begins at Van Cortland park and goes all the way North to "croton on hudson"

Never Not Riding

Not for the typical,
Not for the commons,
Not for the regulars,

especially... Not for you if you don't put in 40 miles (minimum) weekly

thoughtfully made are these limited "NNR" vinyl decals

it might just be a decal/sticker to some (yeah.... this is not for you but thanks for reading on) but for us, this is our time, our time to Ride to live...... not live to Ride.

get on that saddle and represent!!

Tour de Hills (BX) 2012

I apologize if I am not updating enough, I know I said this before but I try my best to update as much as possible, at least once a week.


If you couldn't make it out to the Tour De Bronx this past Sunday 10.14.2012. You really missed out on a good ride and time.

Get out there and ride your bike!!!
workkkkkkkkkkkkk!!!!

This is my 2nd Tour de Hills (BX) in a row and only good memories and stories to tell. To me, this is becoming an annual gathering,  get together and talk shieeeeeeet lol.

40 miles of Hills!!! Yes, it might not seem that serious from the way I am stressing it but let the hills talk and keep the cog turning!! no walking!!! punk!!!  There was a moment or two that I thought I had to get off the bike and walk up the rest of the hill but when your riding a fine bike and rolling with some cool motivating bike buddies, you just keep pushing it till you barf..... literally !!


Lot's of fun with!!
Hope to see more people attending this next year around.
Start training now!!!


Enjoy the photos...
