End Hunger..

In Calvert County this April 24! This should be an amazing ride alongside the shore of the Chesapeake Bay.  There are five routes to choose from, from a beginners route to a Metric Century and for people who don't have a bike they even have a virtual ride using indoor cycling machines.
Calvert County also happens to be an awesome place to take a day trip to. I've been with a class and we went down to the water and found tons of shark teeth! Sounds strange right? But a couple million years ago the place used to be a hot spot for sharks and as they died and the climate and environment changed, their teeth remained buried by layers of sand and silt. Today, it is easy to find shark teeth there and going online you will easily be able to find the top spots to hit.
Tyler and I will be riding to end hunger April 24th, look for us in our brand new Oasis jerseys!

"Flat Out"

So I know what I'm doing this summer (just not in Australia).


"Flat Out" Teaser from FLAT OUT PRODUCTIONS on Vimeo.


The Australian’s call it Walkabout, a chance to escape from the routine, heading into the empty wilderness to empty the body and soul of built up trash, we call it FLAT OUT.

Using the simplest and cleanest form of transport, a Track bike. Four cyclists, meet at the Sydney Opera House in Australia, to embark on a journey into extreme terrain during dangerous summer conditions, riding a massive 1200km of road in only ten days to the city of Melbourne.
