This email is coming to you from a warm campsite near Red Rocks in Vegas. The sun is so NICE!!!
Also, the mountain biking in Vegas is NUTS!! So much loose rock and exposed cliffs. These locals are brave!
I’m all for doing crazy things on my bike, but not if there’s also a chance of falling off a cliff if I mess up. No thank you!
Here’s what I found fun, interesting, or noteworthy this week…
Coolest thing that happened this week –
With all of the rain and wet this Fall in the PNW we corroded the StarLink plug that runs through the roof of our van. Oops! :-/
So, I chopped off the corroded plug of the StarLink cable and spliced in a fresh plug via a kit I found on Amazon, AND added a new (more waterproof) plug storage box to the van, AND IT’S ALL WORKING!!!
It’s taken me quite a while to learn this, but when things on our van break (and they are going to break), you just need to take a deep breath (or 50), and figure out how to fix it. Because there is almost always a fix.
Big shout out to Brian at Momentum Vans for always being there to talk me off the cliff and remind me of this!
Why I’m feeling AWESOME –
We just finished the Prolon 5 day Fasting Program (for like the 8th or 9th time).
The results are always amazing (fat loss, mental clarity, aches and pains go away, and more!), and each time we do it… it gets easier!
The 5 days always feel like they are going to be a long time, but those 5 days are going to go by if we want them to or not.
At this point I don’t really even get very hungry. I think this is because I’ve trained my body to go into ketosis easily.
Anyway, I highly recommend doing this if you feel like you could use a boost, and it’s one of those things where the timing is never right, so just dive in. Anything that you have on your calendar that you don’t want to be fasting for will be fine (and likely better than if you were eating). We don’t skip hard workouts or anything at this point.
PS they might still be running their Black Friday deals if you want to get a kit. I’m not sure. But you can try clicking here and using the code “allaroundjoe” for 25% off.
Our NEWEST YouTube video –
BIGGEST Drop that I’ve Ever done!!! Chuckanut Mountain Bellingham
This is the FULL ride video, but I can still feel how my stomach dropped when I hit that big drop on my bike. Wowza!! I felt like I just kept falling, and then hit my butt on the rear tire when I absorbed the impact.
If you ever go to Bellingham to ride bikes… this is a ride you should definitely do, and you can absolutely avoid the big drop.

Have a great weekend, and send someone on the internet that you follow a nice message this weekend. It means a lot to them!
Cheers!
