SNOWMOBALL DAY

Some of the ColoRADudes took a day off of their fast paced lives and went out into Vail pass on some snowmobiles. we dealt with some rough weather but still managed to have lots of fun. and Shred some really deep powder.


Mapping out the days adventure
Dan and I trying to find the edge of the cornice so we didnt drive our snowmobiles out over the edge and get dead

At the end of the day my face was frozen with ice but i didn't want to quit. The nice thing about the ice was that it made a great insulator from the wind so that my face did not completely fall off. The harsh conditions will only make the next time that much more fun. Thanks to my wife for the Christmas present. You are awesome.

Wall session

Last night we went out to West greeley and had a super fun wall ride session. It took time to get the speed dialed it since we were towing in with my car and we could not get the traction we needed in order to get up on that thing. The night ended with the cops showing up and believe it or not he just wanted to watch. So he watched one hit and then told us we needed to wrap it up and head hope. Thanks to him for not being a jerk.

X GAMES 09




My buddy Shane and I got the opportunity to head up to the X games on Thursday as industry Guests. It was a pretty cool deal. We got to hang out in places where only the riders and friends and family of the riders could go. Plus got Lift access.
The trip started off on Wednesday night with a visit to my friend Katies place in Eagle. We went to this pretty sick bowling ally. It was a good way to start off the our couple day adventure. Thanks again Katie for hookin it up

Thursday morning we got up at 6:00 and made the trip up to the games. In the parking lot this girl parked next to our car and Shane immediately had is eye on her. We rode the bus up and Shane was talkin to her but it was short lived since once we got off the bus we all went our separate ways. Later on in the day we went to the Taco Bell tent hunting for food and guess who happened to to be working the taco bell tent. It was none other than that chick. Shane's eyes once again lit up. While explaining the game prizes he told her that if he wins all he wants is a picture with her. Well, Shane continued to dominate the game and this is what came from that.

If you think that is creepy, well because it kinda is, but wait till you here the next part of the story. Later that night when we went back to the car shane and I thought it would be a good idea to leave this little note on her car.........ABSOLUTLEY HILARIOUS!!!!

The rest of the day was spent entertaining ourselves by people watching and watching the action. here are some of the days happenings





Our Industry Guest passes gave us lift access so we got to ride for free too.

Shane using natures toilet on Aspen Mountain......
We left aspen at about 10:30 and drove the 5 hours it took to get back and I got back into my bed at about 3:00am. Long day but super fun.

Loveland Trip

Some of my good friends came into town from my hometown in Iowa this week. I went to Loveland for the first time. We had a good day of riding, and lots of tumbling down the mountain in the deeps, As for the weather? Well our teeth were hurting because of the cold air from constantly laughing and smiling in almost knee deep pow all day long.

My boy Jon and I at the base of loveland. Good to see you homie!



Ryan Kirkpatrick and his brand new baby son Landon Bruce . This is one is awesome baby. He also is constantly making hilarious faces. He looks just like his dad, only smaller, and more baby like.
