Carbondale Biking
Every year in the spring and fall, The League of American Bicyclists awards the distinction of bronze, silver, gold and platinum to cities and towns across the nation that have applied to be Bicycle Friendly Communities; currently there are 260 communities across the nation.

Friends of Jaywalker Lodge
As they call it in the rooms, I am a newcomer. I have been recently introduced into recovery when I went to rehabilitation center just over three months ago. Treatment was only a foundation for me; a small beginning to what I feel now is an endless journey of soul searching and taking an honest […]
“Bro”dona 2014
I moved to California about 6 months ago to be with my beautiful girlfriend and continue my career in the recovery industry. About two weeks prior to my departure from Carbondale, my father died. The support I received from my fellows in Carbondale was unparalleled. I had gone on the Sedona trip last year and […]
One Mile at a Time
Nine months ago if you had told me that I’d ride in a 50 mile mountain bike race, I’d have told you that you were crazy. Since the 4th of July, I’ve competed in two 50 mile races. My older peers from Jaywalker have told me that mountain biking saves lives, and though I’m quite sure […]

This was a great way for the Jaywalker alum’s to expand their community and meet some recovering men that did not attend Jaywalker. Thanks A New Path, for a spectacular day!

New Meaning…
Life will take on new meaning. To watch people recover, to see them help others, to watch loneliness vanish, to see a fellowship grow up about you, to have a host of friends–this is an experience you must not miss. We know you will not want to miss it. –Alcoholics Anonymous Pg. 89 As a […]
Riding to New Heights
Today men from both Jaywalker U and Solutions headed west to ride some of the amazing trails that Fruita has to offer. This was one of the first times riding for some of the guys and have the more experienced riders a chance to help each other out. Another perfect example of mountain biking saving […]
