Babbitt by Sinclair Lewis Mentor New York Sinclair Lewis’ George F. Babbitt is a complicated and conflicted character. When you think you have his next move figured out he surprises you. As you begin to like him, he does something to evoke the “what a rat” response. Male menopause wasn’t a pre Great Depression term, but I would say George has all the symptoms. At a pudgy balding forty six he looks at his life, wife, family and business. He sees himself as a pretty successful business man, but when Tanis, the lonely widow, has a leaky roof, he sees an opportunity for perhaps a more fulfilling relationship then he has at home. Add to Tanis a foray into radical politics, and we are about to whiteness an emotional and financial train wreck with Babbitt at the throttle. This is a long story, but well worth listening to. Human nature hasn’t changed much in the last ninety years.

However, for anyone who throws roost, the factory KTM offroad racer is a household name. Now, why would a bicycle guy like myself be so stoked to meet with such a motorcycle legend? Well, it turns out Russell is quite the mountain biker! At the Windrock, TN, EWS qualifier a few weeks ago, Russell finished 4th. That’s pretty dang impressive for anyone, let alone a guy who isn’t known (yet!) for his mountain bike skills.I had a great chat with Russel, and it turns out he has a long history riding mountain bikes, and totally loves to shred the pedals. Check out Russell’s new project, and join him for a ride in an epic destination! https://www.gnarlyroutes.com/
