While living in 2017 can seem super dramatic (hello politics), I’m absolutely in love with the age of technology. While I’m on a huge mission to completely detach from my phone on the weekends, during the week, my phone is pretty much attached to my hip… er, hand. I’m all for downloading any app that will
My husband Brent has this insane natural tendency to pedal harder uphill — both in life and in cycling. Let me explain.
