Living the dream , by hard work

Been on the road a lot lately.
Booking shows has been going better than I could expect. 2011 will be busy.

2010 is not over yet. I will be doing shows in Colorado in december and Texas in January !

Luck is not just a result of someone getting a good fortune when he least expects it, but good luck will always be a result of diligence and hard work. People who persevere and strive in life, and overcome the hardships will always find themselves in a better position in the end.

An online blurb about a show I did on Saturday in North central MN.

Bicycle stuntman to return to Starbuck Bike Rodeo on SaturdayBy Chad KoenenWith over 3,000 shows in more than 20 years, Rich Wieber is a seasoned bicycle stunt man. After holding performances at a variety of school's throughout the country, as well as a number of professional sporting events, Wieber will be bringing his bicycle stunt show to the Starbuck Bike Rodeo for the second consecutive year. Set for Saturday morning, the annual bike rodeo will kick off at 10 a.m. at Minnewaska West (former Starbuck Elementary). Registration begins at 9:30 a.m. While Wieber will be headlining the event, children in grades K-6 will once again have an opportunity to maneuver their way through the obstacle course set up at Minnewaska West and get some tips on how to be safe on a bike. Once every child completed the obstacle course, bike rodeo participants will ride their bikes through town to the Starbuck VFW for the remainder of the days events. In addition to hosting a free lunch with a variety of door prizes, including a grand prize of two new bicycles, the Starbuck VFW will host the bicycle stunt show. The stunt show, which also features a message about the importance of remaining drug free, will be held at the Starbuck VFW parking lot.

Success

While others are filling their time with entertainment and escapism, superachievers are studying and improving their craft. Having more knowledge, data, background and intelligence will always give you the upper hand in any situation.

2nd parade of the year and its only Jan. 30 !!!

Yesterday was a good day with a couple of school shows in SW Wisconsin.

Today was the St. Paul Winter carnival Torch-lite parade.

it was abought 5 degrees and my front brake cable actually froze up 3/4 of the way threw!

A new client I am working with paid me well to do these last two parades. They have one more lined up for June. This is all a build up to the week long tour of shows I will be doing with my team in mid june .

PARADES

I hate parades ! Always have , always will . Yet I still do them , for the money. Call me a sellout , I dont care.
I like school shows because of the kids and the influence I may have on them in a positive way.
I like the shows I do with the ramps and my team. It is just rad to rip it up in front of crowds with my team !

But parades , they are lame !

I call parades the "blue collar " work. It is a constant show every 20 feet. People always yell things , like = Do a trick , Do a flip , I can do that or like yesterday , "aint you to old to be on that little bike ?"
I like to give a lot when I do trix for people , but in a parade I need a minute to catch my breath .
People just dont care.
I will continue to do parades ( I have 3 more booked this year) But ,
I DON'T HAVE TO LIKE THEM.

oh and by the way , it did rain on my parade yesterday ... still did it and got paid .

Wisconsin death trip

That may be a name for an album by the rock band Static X but to me and my friends it has been a term we hae used since 1998' .

It is what we call the road from Minniapolis MN. heading east all the way to illinois = HWY. 94 , if you will.

This run is always so long and boring. I have done it at least 100 times.

Last night I left Racine WI. and headed on the death trip to home after three shows.
It should of took about 6 and a half hours.

Once I hit The Dells , it was raining/sleeting, Not good when it is below 32 degrees. I seen 4 cars in the ditch upside down or on their sides , a jackknifed semi and numerous cars in the ditch. One car came up on my rear and hit the breaks and did a 180 behind me into the ditch. I was lucky.

All the semi trucks ( the ruler of the roads) were doing less than 40 miles per hour from the Dells to Eau Claire !! it was glare Ice and I was lucky to make it threw safely
it took me hours longer than expected .
I got home safely at 3:35 AM.

Wisconsin Death Trip !
