About Me
I'm a total sucker for all things outdoors-I've been mountain and road biking for 20 years and I'm an avid rock climber, hiker and trail runner. I'm always trying to see how far I can push myself and I'm down to try any new outdoor sport that comes my way.
About a decade ago I moved from the Silicon Valley to Northern California, smack dab between Mt. Shasta and Mt. Lassen and a stone's throw from a couple of lakes and a bevy of rivers and trails, and I spend as much time on them as I can.

We all know the old addage "cotton kills." Among outdoor folk, cotton apparrel is known for its tendency to soak up sweat, take forever to dry, and hang on you like a lead sheet. If you plan on sweating, cotton just isn't the ideal fabric to wear. Looks like that's all going to change with Polarmax's TransDRY tech shirts. It's touted as having all the softness and comfort that comes along with cotton, but none...

On my long distance runs, I often find myself on lonely, isolated stretches of widy roads. When a car cruises by on a curvy mountain roadswith no medians, a runner can be left with a renewed sense of mortality. Since the thought of lying in a ditch with no help and no way of reaching my loved ones is a pretty disconcerting one, I was very appreciative when I was given a Wrist ID Elite...
