What's The Big Idea?


The last year was personally difficult for me after the unexpected death of my sister while visiting her over the Thanks Giving weekend. She was my business mentor. In 2012 I have ridden very little, perhaps 200 miles mostly commuting to work. This last week I struggle with recovering from a torn retina.
These annual blog postings do not develop a strong reader base. This Cycle Idaho Blog is the personal side of what I envision for Cycle Idaho.com. I have posted personal adventures and bicycle builds. I plan to devote at least one day a week to making progress and reporting on this blog about the BIG IDEA.

Eventually Cycle Idaho will be the index of all the bicycling opportunities in the great state of Idaho.

Boise State University College of Business and the Small Business Development Center are developing a business plan for Cycle Idaho, LLC For 2013 Cycle Idaho will expand to include all of the Bicycle Businesses in Idaho. I'll post the progress reports here.

The Big Idea is to follow the wise advice of business specialists and my personal passion to see Idaho become known for world class bicycling opportunities. The new CEO of Yahoo was speaking this week regarding the famous Vince Lombardi quote: For Marissa Mayer, it's God, family and Yahoo.

Me too. God first, then family then business. The Big Idea is to put my skills and passion into a business of "Bringing a variety of cycling opportunities to everyone in Idaho." For 2013 the Cycle Idaho.com web site will strive to implement the big idea.

It is only through God's will working through us that I can accomplish anything. May we all have a prosperous 2013.
Thanks for listening.
