Idea, and actually doing something about it.

Well, The computer buisiness is up and running. but we will see how that goes. It has potential but I think will take awhile to build up the market.

Alteratively, My friend Jarrod and I have come up with another idea, one that I think has vastly more potential that Larakin Systems. We have been working on a buisness plan for nearly a week, and I spent most of yesterday writing up a market alaysis for it.

Here it is: Full service Mountain Bike Guiding, Lessons, Rental, Shuttles to one way trails in the area. Durango is a largly tourism based economy and the only area left is not overwheled with 6 or 7 guiding compainies (like Rafting, Hunting, Fishing, Snowmobiling, Jeep tours, and so on) is Mountain biking. I spent 5 Summers as a guide in Park City, Jarrod has a degree in Resort Managment, and both of us are very active Mountain bikers in the area and know most is not all of the reported "2000 Miles of pristine singletrack" in the area.

I dont want to say much more untill we get more of the details worked out, but it looks pretty good at the moment.

Ill keep you updated.

Can't imagine a better way to make money and stay in shape at the same time.

THings are moving on this front Im getting a little worrkied about it just because it is a huge risk. BUt it is a risk that could pay off in the end.

I agree with both of you, it would be super fun, and I cant imagine how fast Ill run the Silverton marathon this year with all of this training!
