My name is Jeff and I drive a Jeep.

It has been four years, six months, and nineteen days since I last posted. In that time, I have married the love of my life, moved away from my beloved Flagstaff,  let the site's domain registration lapse, opened a 3D printing lab, felt awe in presence of the Rubicon trail, started wearing glasses, left a…Read more My name is Jeff and I drive a Jeep.

El Nino is coming!

Holy shit y'all.  It feels like two weeks since my last post.  Life has been so crazy.  Since we got back from Colorado, I've been on two wheeling trips with AZWJ, one trip with NAU4x4, driven to the Sierras, supported Nona at a Soulstice run, torn out a muffler, shredded a transmission mount, torn out…Read more El Nino is coming!

Colorado Wheelin’

Well, we did that Colorado thing last weekend, and it was super dope.  Everything I'd hoped it would be. We took the long way up, due to some traffic on the shorter route and drove West-Northwest-ish through Durango and such.  Once we got in-state, we were above 9000 feet until we dropped into Denver.  Quite…Read more Colorado Wheelin’

The Jeep, The Maxima, and the mountain

The Jeep is practically falling apart.  Not in a -things are literally falling off of the Jeep as I drive- kind of way, but there are rattles and squeaks and all the things that we retentive mechanic types dread to hear.  And having been off galavanting around the southwest the last few weeks, I haven't…Read more The Jeep, The Maxima, and the mountain

Pyeatt Draw – May 24 2015

I don't usually get to run two big trails in two consecutive months, so this is a bit of a treat.  I met up with the AZWJ group for another run before it gets too hot down off of my mountain.  Just outside Payson is a really cool trail called, you guessed it, Pyeatt Draw.…Read more Pyeatt Draw – May 24 2015

A Case for all Cases

Apologies.  That title is SO bad, but I couldn't think of anything better, and I found myself literally staring at the screen trying to think of something.  At least it's punny and clever and multi-layered. I talked a bit in my last update post about building a new transfer case for my Jeep.  I'm happy…Read more A Case for all Cases

Ajax Mine – April 18 2015

Somehow, I've become an admin for yet another online group.  It's a Facebook group focused on WJs in Arizona.  This one seems to be focused around posting up awesome pictures and going on trail runs around the state.  I know, I live a tough life. For our inaugural run, we decided on the Ajax Mine…Read more Ajax Mine – April 18 2015

While the Rest of the World Plays…

I had a really good post written up about all the things I've been up to lately.  Then my computer ate it.  This will undoubtedly be a weak facsimile of the original.  Your humble narrator forges ahead nonetheless. I built a new Transfer Case for my Jeep.  As usual, I don't have a lot of pictures…Read more While the Rest of the World Plays…

Rider’s Block

As part of my services as a paying WordPress customer, I get live updates on the amount of traffic that wanders through this site.  It's nothing detailed, just vague totals for the day, and what pages are getting the most attention.  Don't worry, I don't know what you do alone in your house.  Except you Bryan.…Read more Rider’s Block
