Wherever I May Roam

Off the beaten path I reign

Rover, wanderer

Nomad, vagabond

Call me what you will

M310: Genisis

In the spring of 2009 Steve and I were on a mountain biking/camping trip in Sedona, Arizona and thought how great it would be to plan an annual hardcore adventure.  We are beginning to plan our inaugural epic adventure that will take place in the fall of 2010. We have chosen M310 as the trip moniker because is represents the 3 elements that we love: Music, Mountains and Mayhem (M3) and the trip will occur in 2010, hence M310. The usual suspects are: Steve living in Atlanta, GA. Dustin living in Lake Stevens, WA. and myself (John) living in Phoenix, AZ. Standby for updates as we log or trip plans and smaller outings in preparation for the big one. This, however, is just the first of many M3s: M311, M312, M313...

Update 04 September, 2010:
It's been well over a year and a half since the "epic" trip was hatched in Sedona and even after six months of blogging about it I don't believe that either of my two M3 partners have done any training or purchased any outdoor gear required for such adventures.  So from here on out when I refer to M3 I am merely speaking to the larger group of people that take outdoor adventure and hard core training seriously and thus live M3 day in and day out!
