We're Ba-ack!

We're Ba-ack!

Every year, except for last year and all years before 2009, we set out on an epic journey where the four great elements - man and moustache, bicycle and beer - converge on a geographically random location to test physical endurance and mental fortitude over five grueling days. This year's scientifically chosen (read: throwing dart at map) route will take us through some of the most demanding terrain that we have faced…the Rocky Mountains. We have rollicked through the rolling hills of horses and bourbon distilleries in Kentucky, grinded through the flat and never-ending cornfields and wind farms of Indiana, and braved the heat of the Texas gulf coast and bayou swamps of Louisiana. This year's ride will take us to new heights, literally, as we cross the Continental Divide a few times, and reach altitudes of 12,000 feet. Though the outcome of our bodies acclimation to this physically demanding challenge is unclear, our moustaches are strong as ever, and we will derive power, as did Sampson, from our hair…of the facial variety. So, as you sit in your office, feel free to live vicariously through our pictures, words, and video, and hopefully we can give you enough interesting material that you don't have to do any real work this week. Enjoy!
