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”
I drug Corvin out for his longest unicycle ride ever on the MRT (just over 8 miles). We probably walked a mile, but it was still worth it to spend time with him and get better riding. Just after the half way point, we switched with me on the 29″ and Corvin on my 36″. … Continue reading “Mississippi River Trail with Corvin – 9/7/2017”
Like any good fool, I often volunteer myself for work that I don’t have to do. In this case, my brother Hiatt was talking about his house needing to be painted. I suggested that he schedule it for Labor Day weekend so we had an extra day. He of course obliged and I was not … Continue reading “Painting Hiatt’s House – 9/2/2017”
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”

Danelle saw that we were free and offered our help. So we went out to Tyson Research Center We dug holes till around 3pm … Continue reading “Rachel’s PhD Help – 8/27/2017”
Danelle and I normally participate in Race For The Rivers each year. This year, we made a prior commitment that happened on the same day, Operation Clean Stream. We took a canoe and paddled down the Meramec River from Greentree to George Winter park, picking up trash along the way. As you can see from … Continue reading “Operation Clean Stream – 8/26/2017”
I took the kids out to Grant’s trail for a quick evening ride. Corvin got some time on the 36″ unicycle. We had a great time! Hogan Haake
With the girls at a Cardinals game, I was free to do something more interesting. I drove down to the Mississippi River Trail (MRT) and unloaded my unicycle. I love how far this trail goes, and was determined to ride a bunch of it. I went farther north than I have before on the Missouri … Continue reading “Mississippi River Trail (MRT) – 8/22/2017”
Laura, Danelle, and Sonora went to the Cardinals game. Sonora likes spending time with the girls.
