Those are the Buffalo Soldiers you see up there, at Yellowstone. This Infantry was established to see if bikes could work for military purposes in mountainous terrain. Seeing as bikes were getting popular and the Europeans had already been using them for both recreation and military use, we decided to give it a look.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>General Nelson A. Miles started all this. He’d seen a six-day race in Madison Square Garden and got the bug. He thought that, unlike a horse, a bike didn’t need to be watered, rested and fed (although most of us have babied ours more than any horse). There’s also the stealth qualities of a bike, compared to a snorting, neighing horse – an asset in battle. So the Bike Corps was formed.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>Spalding bikes loaned the soldiers some single speed bikes and they set out on their first jaunt – a four-day, 126 mile trip. Each bike plus gear weighed over a hundred pounds. Not bad considering their rations:</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span> “…1 jar Armour’s extract of beef, 7 cans beans, 2 lbs. salt, 5 lbs. prunes, 6 lbs. sugar, 5 lbs. rice, 2 lbs. baking powder, 1 can condensed milk, 20 lbs. bacon, 3 cans deviled ham, 2 ounces pepper, 2 lbs. coffee, 35 lbs. flour, 3 cans corn, 1 can syrup, 3 lbs. lard.”</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>The roads were muddy and steep, creek crossings meant tires had to be re-cemented to the wooden rims, but despite this, longer and tougher journeys were planned to test the men’s mettle. <span> </span>Journeys of 790 miles in 16 days and, the biggie, a 1,900 mile, 34 day journey from Missoula to St. Louis.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>In the end, they realized that an Army Bicycle Corps could travel twice as fast as a typical cavalry or infantry and at one-third the cost and effort.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>A large part of those tremendous stats and conclusions can be attributed to the spirit and toughness of those Buffalo Soldiers.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>Thanks, guys. And thanks to everyone who’s made the ultimate sacrifice.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>(Thanks to <a href="http://tubulocity.com">Tubulocity</a> for the image and info)</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span><br/></span></p></blockquote>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23915189951http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23915189951Sun, 27 May 2012 22:53:28 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4m33dg4kA1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Wrapped day 5/5 on Hitchcock still shoot.</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23777152131http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23777152131Fri, 25 May 2012 20:59:37 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4g0snCBJz1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>OldFi</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23564109093http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23564109093Tue, 22 May 2012 14:24:23 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4g0rxkpct1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Audio</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23564080265http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23564080265Tue, 22 May 2012 14:23:57 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4br8m7KYx1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Roger Waters - The Wall</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23412827928http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23412827928Sun, 20 May 2012 07:07:34 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m46kw7tpgH1qc7sujo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>The Kit</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23239721443http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23239721443Thu, 17 May 2012 12:02:31 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4138tHK0A1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>In the saddle…</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23052342738http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/23052342738Mon, 14 May 2012 12:53:17 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3qdr8OVMu1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Red Studios #lotlife</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/22687522138http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/22687522138Tue, 08 May 2012 18:06:43 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3qd4kUsy91qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Electric</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/22686420581http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/22686420581Tue, 08 May 2012 17:53:08 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3qd37LsSx1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Back in the lab…</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/22686356436http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/22686356436Tue, 08 May 2012 17:52:19 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3j1oq2TCu1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Gooseberry Mesa</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/22419337442http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/22419337442Fri, 04 May 2012 19:02:50 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2t8exrlG71qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Fox Lot #lotlife</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21475550925http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21475550925Fri, 20 Apr 2012 20:30:33 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2t8dkd6cd1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Fox Lot #lotlife</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21475500176http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21475500176Fri, 20 Apr 2012 20:29:44 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2rbaisdzr1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Black Plates</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21416962286http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21416962286Thu, 19 Apr 2012 19:37:30 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2pqjdfMDZ1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Red Studios, Hollywood, CA</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21370895675http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21370895675Wed, 18 Apr 2012 23:11:37 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2pqi1jCII1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Liberace Penthouse, Los Angeles, CA</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21370875650http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21370875650Wed, 18 Apr 2012 23:10:49 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2pqgjXysA1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Venice, CA</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21370852880http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21370852880Wed, 18 Apr 2012 23:09:55 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2pqf7dp9N1qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Sine Wave</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21370832948http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21370832948Wed, 18 Apr 2012 23:09:07 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2ktvyfx101qc7sujo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>The Charlie Lamp - Aviara Resort, Carlsbad, CA</p>http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21210992682http://blog.sinuhexavier.com/post/21210992682Mon, 16 Apr 2012 07:35:58 -0700
