I don’t know what it is about being on a team that is so damn enticing. Maybe it’s an instant sense of belonging? All of the sudden you have a title, teammates, inside jokes.. Sarcastic or not it’s a hell of a lot of fun. The latest team we find ourselves on is the #americankreamteam (slogan pending) although I am pushing for “We’re the kream of the crop and we rise to the top”.
Adam ready to rock.
Starting the journey at Great Divide Brewing Company. I was surprised by these beers, much better than I remembered from a brief sampling last year.

River North Brewing Co. Yum. Matt, Adam and myself enjoying some samplers.
Our team was founded one fateful balmy Denver afternoon as we pedaled from brewery to brewery hitting 5 in all. As far as I can tell our team is some sort of costume/climbing/beer nerding/thrift shopping team. Members include Sara, Matt, Adam, Robyn and myself. We met Matt and Adam climbing in Clear Creek one afternoon and hit it off right a way.
Adam climbing at Shelf Road last year.
On the road.
Stoked.
Chillin in Epic.
Who knew? Never seen one of these before.
Black Shirt was bustling on this balmy Sunday.
Black Shirt Brewing Co. only brews red ales. The most interesting of course were the red porter and stout.

Hops & Pie
Night cap at Hops & Pie. I think our mascot should be Maynerd the Pig.
Adam’s special pizza wrap with a bow request was granted.
Our next trip? Each of us will purchase 3 items to outfit another team member from a thrift store: pant, shirt and accessory. Then we will have a thrift store outfit climbing weekend at shelf. After that? A trip to the Everglades. Then Idaho. Gonna be busy.
Keep this up and we might need to invest in a bicycle built for two… DD up front 🙂 http://www.mydenverduilawyer.com/2012/07/01/ride-your-bicyclebut-dont-get-a-dui/
Not sure if I want a drunk dad (DD) steering my bike!
