Usually Hogan is the one who takes epic voyages on the Missouri River. This time, on September 23-27, 2017, I got to take our Kruger Cruiser on Paddle Mo – a 5 day, 100 mile journey from Hermann, Missouri, to the confluence of the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. I am on the board of the … Continue reading “Paddle Mo 2017”
August – 2017
Another good unicycling month even including the family. I also caught the awards ceremony for the MR340, cheering on my friends! It wouldn’t be a little adventure with some adversity. On my ride home, the throttle cable on the motorcycle broke on the highway. It was a bit of a close call coasting to a … Continue reading “August – 2017”
August Sunset Race – 8.10.2017

Family Vacation to BWCA – 7/28/2017

First Waterfall Paddle – 6/24/2017
We finally had our first paddle at Waterfall. We went from Morris Mill back to our property. After we got settled, there is a bit of rapid to get through very close to the start.

Holly Week – 6/10/2017
This was a week that started off bad and only got better! Danelle was going out of town for a girls 40th birthday party week and that left the kids and I to hang out. After thinking of lots of ideas of what to do with the kids, I decided to visit my sister Holly … Continue reading “Holly Week – 6/10/2017”
June Sunset Race #103 – 6/8/2017
The June Sunset race was planned to go downstream from our normal starting place and paddle to a marina where we would get beer and then paddle back. Apparently paddlers like beer, because this was our largest turnout ever! I’m super happy people came out to paddle with us. Remember that we paddle year round … Continue reading “June Sunset Race #103 – 6/8/2017”
South Dakota Kayak Challenge – 5/25/2017
The South Dakota Kayak Challenge is a 72 mile paddling race down the Missouri river. Danelle and I had previously completed this race and though it would be fun to do it again with friends. I borrowed a 4 person aluminum boat and talked Andy and T into joining us for the trip. We only … Continue reading “South Dakota Kayak Challenge – 5/25/2017”
