This striking similarity intrigued and mystified him. The implications for the presence of some of the earliest …

People think they are "insane" because they are training and racing in zero degrees, deep snow, rain, and temperatures …

Mostly slower paced hikes, walks, and bike rides in or near the Inland Empire area of Southern California with occasional longer, more challenging and more distant hikes and rides. We actually don't mind a little huffing and puffing on the trails and bike paths, or even a little boulder scrambling, but we're definitely not in a race and we don't particularly like to start hikes at the crack of dawn. We have fun and you are welcome to join our group. But it must be understood that hiking, biking, …
