Aligning Strategy and Sales: The Choices, Systems, and Behaviors That Drive Effective Selling
By Frank V Cespedes
That gap between your company s sales efforts and strategy? It s realand a huge vulnerability. Addressing that gap, actionably and with attention to relevant research, is the focus of this book.
In "Aligning Strategy and Sales," Harvard Business School professor Frank Cespedes equips you to link your go-to-market initiatives with strategic goals. Cespedes offers a road map to articulate strategy in ways that people in the field can understand and that will fuel the behaviors required for profitable growth. Without that alignment, leaders will press for better execution when they need a better strategy, or change strategic direction with great cost and turmoil when they should focus on the basics of sales execution.
With thoughtful, clear, and engaging examples, "Aligning Strategy and Sales" provides a framework for diagnosing and managing the core levers available for effective selling in any organization. It will give you the know-how and tools to move from ideas to action and build a sales effort linked to your firm s unique goals, not a generic selling formula.
Cespedes shows how sales efforts affect all elements of value creation in a business, whether you re a start-up seeking to scale or an established firm looking to jump-start new growth. The book provides key insights to optimize your firm s customer management activities and so improve selling "and" strategy.
"With so many books focused on the elevator pitch, closing the sale, or other minute sales techniques, "Aligning Strategy and Sales" is a refreshing change of pace." -- 800 CEO READ
ADVANCE PRAISE for "Aligning Strategy and Sales"
Lou D'Ambrosio, Chairman, Sensus; former CEO, Sears Holdings and Avaya Inc.--
"Finally . . . a business book with real, pragmatic insight about the crucially important, but often ignored, discipline of sales and why it's vital to any plausible strategy. Written in an effective and sometimes edgy tone, "Aligning Strategy and Sales" is a compelling playbook for companies looking to accelerate their growth."
Jeffrey Bussgang, General Partner, Flybridge Capital Partners--
"You spend a lot on sales. A LOT. Read Cespedes' wise words to get a better handle on how to make your sales investments pay off through smart, strategic alignment."
Charles Wilson, CEO, Booker Group--
"It often feels like salespeople are from Mars and strategists from Venus. Little wonder so many strategies fail when tested by real-world customer contact. Whether you are in sales, strategy, or a CEO, you should read this book. It addresses thorny issues like culture and compensation, and it will help you get results."
Mardia van der Walt, Senior Vice President, Middle East and Africa, T-Systems International--
"The execution of strategy within an organization is dependent on two critical elements: the creation of a culture that enables strategy execution, and the ability of the sales force to execute on the sales tasks aligned to the strategy. And this is what Frank Cespedes manages to do with "Aligning Strategy and Sales.""
Jeanne O'Kelley, cofounder and CEO, Blueprint Technologies--
"Frank Cespedes has brilliantly captured why aligning strategy and sales is so darn difficult. He walks you through the alignment process in a methodical yet witty manner, reminding you of the nitty-gritty intricacies that will provide the wind in the sails of your strategy. This book should be required reading for all senior executives and sales managers."

My twenties have been amazing so far, but I think that I'm finally ready to settle into something more permanent. I love my job, and I enjoy spending time with my incredible family and friends. I suppose that the "relationship piece" is the piece that's missing in my puzzle right now. I'm not a dependent person by any means, but it definitely is nice to have someone by your side to enjoy the good times with and with whom you can find consolation during the rough times. So to tell you a little about me...I like to keep an open mind when it comes to what life has to offer. I'm happy to dress up and accompany you to the theater. I'm equally as happy to throw on my jeans and sports jersey of whichever Detroit sports team is playing (I've got them all) and hit up the closest Buffalo Wild Wings with you. I'm not afraid to play in the dirt, but I also clean up nicely (or so I'm told) and enjoy having intellectual conversations on just about any topic. I make an effort to educate myself on whatever I can so that I'm not the girl who is sitting in the midst of a group of people, blankly staring at everyone and wondering what's going on. If your interests are something that I have not yet tried or don't know much about, don't let that deter you; it just means that I haven't met the right teacher yet. It doesn't mean that I'm not eager to learn and try the things you enjoy. I am huge into traveling and volunteering. I spent four months living in Spain in 2010 and I really loved being in Europe. I can't wait to go back to visit! So far, I've traveled to Canada, Honduras, Ireland, England, Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, and the Vatican City, but a personal goal of mine is to hit all seven continents and as many countries as I possibly can. If you think you can keep up, you're welcome to come along for the ride. Right now, I am in my seventh year of volunteering with a non-profit that promotes leadership and service among high schoolers here in Michigan and I absolutely love it! If I could, I would spend my time traveling around the world and volunteering in humanitarian efforts to help people in need. My biggest "must haves" in a significant other would be: loyalty, great communication skills, ambition to succeed, awesome sense of humor, and humility (I swear, despite all of the talking that I just did about myself, I do try to maintain a sense of humility). Cockiness is probably my biggest pet-peeve with people, so someone who is willing to acknowledge his weaknesses as well as his strengths is someone who seems the most compatible with me. After all, no one's perfect, right? Also, he's gotta love animals. I'm a huge animal lover and I plan to adopt all of my future pets (though I promise, I won't turn out to be the crazy cat lady on the block). There are too many awesome pets in shelters waiting to be adopted. I grew up with labs and would love to have a lab one day, but I'll love anything with four paws and a kind heart. As you can tell...I can be rather verbal (as my eight-year-old students like to point out from time to time), but I'm a good listener as well and would love to hear from you! Even if we're not compatible, I wish you well in what you choose to pursue in life. Take care!

I like Dogs
Though I'm really more of a dog person, I do have a rescue cat, 9.5 years old. He's pretty great.
I don't really have a favorite. For me, it's more a matter of who I'm with than where I am. Even in the craziest of places overseas, I had an amazing time because of my friends and the people I met along the way.
Oakland University, Rochester, MI
I have many different interests. Give me a topic, and I'd be happy to let you know what my favorite thing is about it...and hopefully you'd be cool with sharing your favorite thing, too?
I love to write, read, kickbox, watch movies, visit with friends, travel, volunteer, teach, and engage in great conversations with others.
When I'm not reading required texts for grad school, I'm usually reading children's books to build up my classroom library. If an eight-year-old girl would like it, odds are I've read it. I'm willing to read just about anything with a good plot.

Apple Cider Vinegar 61 4
Approval Ratings
[YEA] I tested the ACV for conjunctivitis on our 6 year old cat Marmite who had chronic conjunctivitis relating to cat flu. It worked amazingly fast and well, it took about 4 days applying it twice sometimes 3 times a day. I didn't do anything else other than the ACV and sometimes washing out her eyes with a saline mix.
Then our 11 year old cat Molly developed acute conjunctivitis last week - emergency vet visit last weekend - her eye looked like it had a ping pong ball under it so I didn't want to take any chances. The vet gave her 2 antibiotic injections and an anti-inflammatory injection and ointment. That brought the heavy swelling down - but her eyes were still watery the past week and she was waking up with them shut and sticky but I thought, the antibiotics must still be working and it would take time. 2 nights ago I noticed the other eye starting to really swell up large - and not wanting it to get to the size of the other one, I quickly swabbed her neck and back with ACV and overnight her eye came right down in size - the same speed as all the vet medication. I've been swabbing her about 6 times a day and it's nearly back to its normal size today after about 3 days.
Another cat Tilly always has one runny eye so last night I swabbed her too and this morning her eye looked clear for the first time in ages. I think this is an excellent remedy if the condition is mild, but I do think vet help and a second opinion is needed if the condition looked as serious as Molly's - it'd be terrible to risk an animal losing an eye. I don't know how this remedy works but definitely absolutely worth a try! I didn't use organic ACV but I will get some today in case it works even better than the ordinary kind.

Thank you all for your advice, I have a Cocker Spaniel who has had pink eye / discharge 2 times in the last 2 months. Like the rest of you I can't afford the vet bills so I have decided to try this. Luckily for me my son had bought some at a Chinese market so have mixed equal parts with water and soaked the back of her neck. Will let you know how it works.Replied by Shouston303

06/24/2011how did it work?Posted by Ladykalaveras Loves Bruno (Pacoima, California) on 11/30/2010
[YEA] I'm ever so grateful for this site and all the people who take time into contributing their remedies. Thank u so much!!! A couple of days ago my dog Bruno and I went hiking and although it wasn't his first time there and was familiar with the environment something went wrong because once we got home I noticed he kept rubbing his eye it was red swollen and kept tearing with some whitish funky stuff in the corner of his eye. I didn't make a fuss at first and thought it was a simple scratch but later his eye would'nt fully open and that's when I started to panic. My parent put regular eye drops for redness relief but it didn't seem to make a difference.
Make the long story short I was freaking out because nothing like that has ever happened to any of my dogs and the vet was closed so remembering that this site has a pet section I right away researched and found a lot of helpful things many were suggesting ACV mixed with water and rubbing it in the back of their necks do when they bathe themselves the ACV will do its magic. I have faith in ACV in use for many things so I right away went to grab my bottle but since the vinegar has a strong smell my dog didn't like it so my mom suggested to put a chamomile tea bag over his eye not rubbing it but sort of patting it softly over his eye. Not only did I save myself a nice vet bill but if your dogs or cats don't like the smell of vinegar I suggest placing the tea bag over his eye every other hour and with the water from the tea soak a warm cloth into the tea and use that to kinda clean all the eye buggers that they produce. And plus they seem to love the smell of chamomile.Posted by Kelly (Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin) on 10/07/2010
[YEA] I didn't think apple cider vinegar would do it, but I had a bottle in the pantry and figured it was worth a try. It's just the regular stuff, I won't pay extra for organic anything. My cat's eye had been runny for a few days and yesterday it looked somewhat swollen and crusty. I soaked a cotton ball with the vinegar and dabbed it on the scruff of his neck while he was sleeping and then I was off to work. When I woke up this morning I was being pestered by said cat, which he hadn't been doing for several days. His eye was wide open and looked so much better. He seems like he feels better too. If his eye flares up again (it usually happens a couple times a year)the first thing I'll do is dab him with the vinegar again.Replied by Silvia

12/25/2010Emmanuel is my therapeutic animal, he is mainecoon, approx. 5 yrs. All of his shots are up to date and he is neutered as required for rescue adoption. He is nationally certified. Long story short, we were surprisingly snowed in with my wheelchair last week. I kept him as dry and warm as possible in his carrier. A week later Christmas day, he has what appears to be conjunctivitis in his right eye. He is a Whiskas cat... He won't eat anything else. I keep Temptations treats and Whiskas fish foil dinners for traveling and convalescence. He normally eats 1 c. Dry at 12 lbs weight daily
After reading all of your helpful comments I decided to use the following:
I use hypoallergenic baby wipes with approx 1 tsp of apple cider vinegar. I wipe them on the back of his neck and his paws. I plan to repeat this twice daily. I also gave him 1 tsp of cider in his foil dinners twice daily. I use a small amount of triple antibiotic cream and swab it under his eye with my finger daily, being careful not get it in his eye. I will report how he is taking to his treatment plan. Thanks for all of the helpful information.Replied by Marina

08/10/2011Kelly I have a Corgi and she has really bad skin irritation and has scratched so much that her eye is swollen. My question to you is you just rub the ACV on the eyelid or where. I wonder because doesnt it burn?Posted by Kit (Salem, Va, Usa) on 09/20/2010
Some people ask why put apple cider vinegar on the neck. My guess in putting ACV is too strong directly in the eye, so when cats clean themselves, you notice they rub their front leg/foot starting at the back of the neck and over their head, face, and eyes. This dried ACV flaking onto their eye and face must be enough to cure, but not too strong for their eye.Posted by Namooni1974 (Portland , Oregon, Usa) on 08/31/2010
[YEA] YEA for Apple Cider Vinegar and feline conjunctivitis. My neighbors cat came down with a nasty case of conjunctivitis in both eyes while I was watching him. I checked with this site and found this remedy. I applied a solution of 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar/1 tbsp water to the back of his neck, saturating his fur, then washed his face with a washcloth and warm water. By morning his eyes were clear. I applied it again that morning just to be on the safe side and now a week later his eyes are doing just fine. Thank you everyone who posted here from me and my neighbor!Replied by Lorene

[YEA] Kitten with Conjunctivitis
My 8 week old kitten was suffering from very severe conjunctivitis and it had gotten so bad I thought he wasnt going to make it. I brought him to 2 different vets who were giving me the runaround and I needed to help my baby boy feel better before it was too late. My husband was doing some research and we came across this site, he flew out of the room telling me I needed to get some ACV with mother in it immedietly. I honestly thought he was nuts. We rubbed some on the back of his neck, added a capful in his food, dipped his paws in a concentration of 50 percent water and 50 percent ACV and put one part ACV and 3 parts water in his water bowl. By the next morning my kitten was starting to open his eye and eat again. today was his second day with this treatment and he is running around like he never got sick and we are able to see part of his eye again. We are going to be doing this treatment for about another week or so and hopefully he will return back to normal. We also used a saline solution 1 cup of water and 1/4 teaspoon of salt on his eye 3 times a day and he loves it. I feel like this site has been a true blessing to me and my kitty.Replied by Lisa

06/01/2010You can also use antibiotic ointment for the eyes. Not in the eyes! You just rub some in the fur just under the eyes 3 times a day until the eyes clear up. I did this for a recue kitty 3 years ago(I still have him). I was using a warm wet cloth several times a day and it helped but not cured. Someone who worked in a no kill shelter told me about the ointment. It worked. In a week, the little eyes were clear and beautiful blue!!Replied by Mickey

03/01/2011Ok so this is my first time here and I ran across it looking for a cure for eye infection in my yorkie. I just tried 1 tbsp of water to 1tbsp of ACV. I am hoping to see a difference in his eyes tomorrow. I had brought him to the vet and she said his sister probably bit him because it looked like a bite. I explained it started as a little pimple loking bump then it got a tiny hole in the top but she wrote it off as a bite. The next day after doing the twice daily hotpacking and anitbiotic on his eye followed by oral antibiotics I noticed his other eye looked goopy too. Now if it was a bite it wouldn't spread and it looks like my nephews eye when he got eye infection but I have decided to keep using the antibiotics and eye packs and tonight just tried the ACV. Hopefully my bright eyed bushy tailed little man comes back to normal soon. I hate seeing him like this.

06/26/2011Mickey; As it was stated in previous messages it isn't all too good to use antibiotics on animals too often, but if so you should use a probiotic which is non-fat-plain yogurt, it's some-thing all animals love especially on hot summer days, but also helps to support the immune system.

08/29/2011[YEA] One of my dogs came down with conj. as well, believing it started as a reaction to pesticides sprayed by a professional company to eradicate a flea infestation that came into my residence courtesy the neighbor's pets who are not flea-treated (note: yes, my dogs are flea-treated via vet Rx, and I will be speaking to said vet about it as that shouldn't have happened, right?).
In any event, I've 3 dogs, 2 JRTs which are fine but were sneezing for a bit after the pesticide treatment, with my Chow being even more sensitive--not only sneezing but also developing red eye, which has since developed into Conj. (irritated red eyes which he pawed at (itch), followed by tearing and soon a mucous discharge in both eyes). As this occurred over the weekend, I irrigated the eyes by flushing thoroughly with water, wiping the area clean with cotton pads soaked in a warm saline solution which seemed to bring my guy some relief. I continued this regimen overnight (about 12 hours), contacting the emergency vet by phone to explain what happened, and to check whether it was safe to use an antibiotic eye wash. They said "no" and suggested I bring him in immediately, saying it was likely a corneal ulceration and if so that antibiotic drops or creams would worsen the condition. This theory/diagnosis did not make sense to me, but I held off from using the wash/ointments just in case.
However, so far as both eyes (not just one) are affected and seem to be improving with simple irrigation and saline washes (which I was told can't hurt in any event), I also held off from rushing to emerg, believing it to be conj. (irritation/allergies and/or bacterial); obviously, to be confirmed by his regular vet on opening which I thought we could wait for, with emerg always being an option if needed.
That said, I've continued with the saline solution every couple of hours or so, it now being almost 48 hours since I first started the saline, and his eyes have continued to show improvement. Namely, they're no longer seriously bloodshot, nor seemingly itchy as he's no longer pawing at them (that said, I put an inflatable collar around his neck on starting his at-home treatment as a precautionary measure to prevent him from pawing/scratching at his eyes, which could just as easily explain that). He is otherwise in great health, acting normally and his eyes do not appear to be light sensitive either, such that I believe it's resolving on its own, with help from the irrigation and saline wash, and will continue to monitor him.
As such, I don't see any reason at this moment to take him to the vet, at least not at this time, thanks to this simple regimen (thanks). Should his condition change, I. E. , if I fail to see continued improvement or, should his condition take a turn and worsen, then off to the vet he shall go and I will report back. Otherwise, so far so good, and thanks also for giving me comfort. Cheers.Posted by Health Nut (Los Angeles, California) on 05/27/2010
[YEA] ACV for Doggy Conjunctivitis
Unbelievable! If I didn't see it for myself I wouldn't have believed it. My little Yorkie got an eye infection which caused a whitish discharge and created these big boogers in his eyes for about 3 days. It wasn't 'til the 4th day when he woke up almost unable to open one of his eyes, I decided to get on my favorite website for natural cures (Earth Clinic) for a solution. Everyone raved about ACV and so I decided to try it. I followed most peoples instructions and since my Yorkie is so small I just mixed 1 Tbl. water with 1 Tbl. AVC and rubbed in on the back of his neck. The very same day it seemed it have been disappearing and by the morning it was completely gone. He woke up bright eyed and bushy tailed and I was amazed at how well it worked. This sure beats going to the vet for some eye drops which would cost me a nice little penny. Thanks to all for the input and thank goodness for this website.Replied by Jeanette

01/06/2011[YEA] Thank You so much! My cocker spaniel eye was swollen at the corner & very red & tear dropping. I took him 3 times to the Vet(2)this past year a good vet I might add & spent hundreds upon hundreds of dollars. Yet they couldn't diagnose it & none of the medications worked, which were $35 ea. I went on line to see what it might be & came up with Conjunctivitis. A home remedy was to mix Organic Apple Cider Vinegar with equal parts of water and put on the neck? At this time I would try anything because I couldn't afford to keep going to the vet & didn't want to see my dog suffer any longer it's been a year. I can't BELIEVE how it's working. I been putting it on 3 to 4 times a day on his neck & around his eye for the last 4 days. The swelling in the corner of his eye is down the redness has lightened dramatically. I am going to continue to use it till it is completely gone. I am just so greatful to this website. I had been praying to God for a cure that wouldn't break me & he sent me to earth clinic.

06/01/2011[YEA] Just wanted to thank everyone for their posts. ACV really seems to hav worked for my lil girl Sheba. The first day I tried honey and tea bags for her infected eye with no luck. After finding this site and reading about ACV I'm a true believer. First I cleaned out her eye with a lil warm water to remove all the gunk. Also so she could open the eye. Then I used a tbsp of ACV in about a half cup of water. I applied it all around her neck and the paw she would use to clean the eye about every 2-3 hrs except at night and within a few applications I noticed the difference. By the 2nd morning I no longer needed to clean her eye out as much as the gunk build up went away and I was able to see her pretty eyes again. Now the swelling has gone down drastically. I'm gonna keep doing this for a 3rd day and hopefully by the end of that she will be back to normal. Thanks again for all the great advice!!!Posted by Tatiana (Long Island, Ny) on 05/23/2010

Biju is a black bombay/burmese stunning mix at just turned 15yrs old. Shiny,clear yellow-green moon eyes & acts truly like a dog..dog behaviors too uncanny.
His undereye lining inflamed, and thought, his tear duct was blocked. SO I did the application of ACV to scruff of neck, and diluted with water w ACV under eye..well, the inflamed eyelining GONE! However he still continues to tear with one eye when eating & going to litter box to "push out." I also tried Saline Solution & warm compress.. but he still tears a clear lining dwn to nose. Realizing, internally is the way to go, he ONLY drinks water from the Bathroom tub fawcett. How long does the tear last..and how long with the ACV & Saline Sol... ANYone?!?Posted by Sara (Mpls, Mn, Us) on 04/24/2010

[YEA] Organic Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) cured my dog's conjunctivitis. I have a four year old dougue de bordeaux who developed conjunctivitis in one eye. Like most others a vet bill looked likely to overwhelm us. I looked at your site, considered the ACV and thought it's six australian dollars what the heck. Now with my dog being almost 65 kilograms I thought the capful recommmended for a little maltese and the like would not suffice. So I administered about half a cup to the back of my dogs neck and rubbed it well in. OK so he smelt like someone had urinated in a pair of old sports shoes, but sure enough with 24 hours, I kid you not, not a sign of conjunctivitis, no discharge, no swelling or redness. Even now two weeks later, no reccurence.Posted by Laura (Atlanta, Georgia) on 03/10/2010
[YEA] Dog: Boxer/lab mix (1 year)
Aliment: Pink Eye/conjunctivitis
Cure: 1/2 apple cider vinegar 1/2 water placed at the back of my dog's neck. (Same location where flea preventative is placed).
It works! I must confess that I was still doubtful, even after reading all of the "yea's". I filled a ear syringe with half ACV and half water and proceeded to squirt past his sleek fur along the back of his neck and rubbed it in. Thirty minutes later, it looked a lot better. So, I decided to wait a few hours before using the rest of the mixture.
I woke up this morning and it was gone!

[YEA] Organic apple cider vinager for cat's conjuctivitis
I have to tell you I'm absolutely flabbergasted. I got this information about ACV on friday from a friend.
I immediately went the the health food store after work and purchased organic ACV, Went home and got out a couple of Q-tips, dunked them directly into the ACV and rubbed them on the back of my cat's neck. Within a few hours he looked about 70% better, and by the next day, it was completely gone.Replied by Hope

[YEA] My cat's eye started weeping a bit and then quickly went to eye boogers and her holding it shut. I called for a vet appointment but the next available was Monday, 2 days away so until the appointment, I googled cat eye infection and read about ACV treatment. I happened to have some Organic ACV in the house so decided to try it, just a bit on the nape of her neck and a capfull in her water bowl. The next morning her eye was much better. By the time I got back from work, her eye was almost perfect! No weeping at all, nice and clear, and she was no longer holding it shut. She still was blinking it a bit so I reapplied the ACV to her neck this evening but I am amazed at the results. Her eye improved 90% in one night after a single application!Posted by Kamilee (Brooklyn, Ny) on 12/16/2009
[YEA] ACV for Dog Conjunctivitis
OMG - It really works. My Bichon suffered with eye issues for YEARS. Each vet vist cost nearly $200 for the service plus anitbiotic cream...but the infection would return.
Last night after seeing more of those green eye-boogies with the black crust, I decided to search for a more holistic solution -> EarthClinic lead me to rub a capful of organic ACV to the back of his neck and rub extra virgin coconut oil around his eyes. This morning I was gerated by a bright-eye dog instead of the usual raccoon-masked dog. Thank you EC

Single Mom Seeks Single Dad
I am a single, professional mom looking to meet a nice guy. (no really...a nice, honest guy). I am a down to earth, hippie at heart, honest and sincere person. I do not like hanging out at bars and prefer going out for dinner and drinks or gatherings with friends. I am looking to meet someone who wants to enjoy what life has to offer ...I love the.Keys, the beach, and boating and fishing are a favorite. I love to cook (it's my own form of therapy). Dinner out or rent a movie and stay in...either is ok by me. Sunday afternoon cocktails by the tiki bar and listening to a live classic rock band is always a nice way to end the weekend. And I still love going to concerts. Ok, so I've given you a glimpse of what I'm all about and I am sure there is someone out there that share my interests. I work hard at my job, and am looking to meet someone to share and enjoy life with. I am not interested in speed dating or players. I am interested in meeting someone who is not afraid of a relationship. Friends first and then we can see where is goes from there. I would love to find the "happily ever after" because all my friends tell me that it exists....I know that there is someone out there that can help me prove them right! . P.S. if you respond to my profile, please have a photo posted. I am not a shallow person, but let's be honest, there has to be a mutual physical attraction.
Alumni connections , Camping , Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Gardening/Landscaping , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Dancing, Other types of exercise, Swimming, Walking / Hiking
I have Dogs, Exotic Pets
I like Birds, Horses
I am allergic to cats...but I guess there is always Benadryl for the right guy :)
Anywhere tropical...White beaches, turquoise water, laid back atmosphere, no cell phones, no TVs, no schedules. The mountains of NC and the Keys are among my favorite places...low key, no stress!
I love classic rock, Aerosmith, Eric Clapton, Heart, Journey, Bruce, Fleetwood Mac, Stones are among some of my favorites. Watching House or Grey's on TV & I am a CNN junkie. Also love a great suspense film that keeps you on the edge of your seat!
I love to cook...If you like good food, good wine and good company, we could be a match! I love outdoor concerts and spending time with family and friends ranks very high on my list!

Questor and MotoAdventureGal ride the Continental Divide Trail
Hello All.
This summer, MotoAdventureGal and myself took the time to ride the Trans-America Trail in its entirety.
We had a great trip.
We left Connecticut on June 24th and finished on August 2nd, 2009. :clap
If you want to get caught up, our Ride Report of the TAT can be found here. :deal
After completing the Trans-America Trail, we decided to ride the Continental Divide Trail.
I mean why not? We've got the time. We've got the bikes, and gear. And we are on the West Coast so why not! :thumb
I had read BigDog's CDT report a few years ago. Mr. BigDog writes great Ride Reports, and he was nice enough to include a GPS file in his Report.
So I re-read the report, downloaded the GPS files, and stuffed the data into the GPS.
All total our TAT and CDT ride, and back home along the Gulf Coast took three months, and consisted of 14,766 miles.
In the end, the route we took looked something like this.
I'll do my best to share everything we saw and did on this trip, but that will take some time. I took over 5,600 Hi-Resolution pictures, and so did Motoadventuregal. :eek1
So settle in for a long Ride Report, and enjoy.
P.S. Here are some interesting stats about the CDT.
- The CDT passes though five states. Montana, Idaho, Wyomimg, Colorado, New Mexico.
- Following the CDT, I rode 3430 miles from Canada to Mexico.
- The CDT crossed the Continental Divide 28 times.
- Total elevation gain is 200,000 vertical feet. (That's the quivelent of climbing Mt. Everest seven times - from Sea Level.)
:lurk .............
Let the show begin ! :clap
Day 1: Wednesday August 12th, 2009
I awoke by the side if the Flathead River south of Kalispell MT.
It was cold, and as I lay there in the tent, all warm and snuggly in my sleeping bag, the travels of the past 6 weeks played through my head...
A week ago, MotoAdventureGal and myself had finished the Trans-America Trail. :thumb
We had agreed that after the TAT we wanted to ride the CDT.
Unfortunately, MotoAdventureGal had a schedule conflict.
She had to be back in the Denver area in five days for work.
So from Port Orford, we rode the little dirt bikes for 2 days and traveled 800 miles to Biose Idaho. There we split up. MotoAdventureGal would go to Colorado for work, and I would ride up to Canada and start the CDT. We would meet up agian in two weeks, and complete the second half of the CDT together.
So here I was, 60 miles from the Canadian border, ready to start the CDT.
I broke down camp around 6:00am, packed up the bike, and headed North to Kalispell to get some breakfast.
It was a cold morning. I remember my fingers were numb as I rode.
I'm riding a DRZ-400 so I don't have any luxuries such as heated grips, electric clothing, or windscreen.
So the first breakfast spot I find, I stop and get some food, and wait a bit for things to warm up.
Gotta eat if you want to play...
After breakfast I rode through the town of Whitefish MT.
North on Rt 93, another 50 miles...
I get the the town of Eureka, last town in the US before the Canada line.
Yeup, were near Canada.
Nothing but Igloo's and Polar Bears. :lol3
A few miles later, I'm on the CDT headed south.
For a little while the trail follows small dirt roads.
Then it heads East toward the edge of Glacier National Park, and into remote areas.
The trails / dirt roads up here in fantastic condition. High Speed and smooth.
The CDT takes us down scenic valleys. Thousands of acres of unspoiled wilderness.
I saw a few bicycles towing trailers along the CDT. Apparently this CDT is a very popular bike touring route. Mid August is a little late to be riding the CDT on a bicycle, but a few were still out there.
The trail takes us though a forest fire area.
Great views. No cars, no powerlines, no signs.
Mile after mile of scenic beauty and fast forest roads. :thumb
Beautiful lakes. If it were not so cold I would have gone for a swim.
(As I travel more and more, I'm beginning top realise how important it is to "stop and smell the flowers". If you come to a special spot, stop and enjoy it, and make it a special memory. After the ride is over, you probably won't remember everything, but you will remember the places where you stopped to take a swim, or a place you camped and watched the sunset.)
A section of pavement near Swan Lake and a chance to get gas.
Then back into the woods.
More scenic wonder. Nice weather helps a lot too.
A few miles later the trail passes though the town of Lincoln, where I got supplies for dinner, and two beers.
Headed out of town,I find that the road the the CDT follows is closed due to bridge construction. No biggie, a quick re-route gets me back on the CDT.
High speed cruising and drifting... :clap
We follow the CDT into the Rocky Mountains and cross the Continental Divide for the first of 27 times.
Some sections of the trail were high speed dirt roads, other sections were rough double track, but all of it could be done in a Subaru with decent tires.
(In fact I found most of the CDT to be very easy. Only a few sections in New Mexico got a bit tricky, but we will get to that later...)
Later we come to this old structure. I believe it was a mine at one time.
Must have been impressive in it's day...
An hour or so down the trail, it's starting to get late so I find a quiet spot off the road, and set up camp for the night. A subway sandwich and two beers for dinner.
First day of the CDT has been a treat.
Stats for the Day:
404 miles.
Moving Average 42.5 Moving time 9:31
Stopped 2:08 Total 11:39.
TIA Questor! Always good to see one of your RR's.
Yea another great report in the making.:clap
Oh and Q,
I want a very detailed report around the AC-Pinedale-Rawlins section. :lol3
Hehehe, you're right there; they're luxuries, not necessities. Unless of course you live and ride around in Antartica I guess. Of course they can be quite nice from what I've heard.
Really looking forward to seeing your comparison of TAT and the CDT; especially with regards to difficulty level. Since doing the TAT this year, my dad's been talking about getting into DS riding, and I'm already trying to come up with a trip for us to take together next summer. I'll be looking and listening to what you have to say. Keep up the good work! :thumb
I'll jump way ahead and ask if you feel this is GS friendly? I'm assuming if it's Suburu friendly it's okay for a GS.
Big miles on a DRZ!
Looking good!
I like your idea of dinner.
Looks like a nice trip so far.
:clap Subscribed! :lurk
I'm in. :thumb
To me that was one of the best sections.
The Red Sand area was so remote...:eek1
And wait till you see some of the folks I met along that section of trail... :eek1
In general the CDT is easy and scenic.
It would be very big bike friendly.
A KTM 950 with the right tires would eat it up. :wink:
A BMW GSA might be a handful in two sections:
- Right after Pinedale WY, there is a section that has a tricky ledge you need to blast up. (Easily skipped)
- The section of trail right as you enter New Mexico. (Not so easy to skip)
If my Dad ever expressed an interest in riding with me, this is probably the ride I would take him on.
Logistically this ride was easy.
The only places that you will need extra range would be the sections from Pinedale WY to Rawlins WY, (you migt be able to get a couple of gallons in Atlantic City if you ask nicely) and Grants NM, to Silver City NM. (We rode 235 miles on a tank full, and just barely made it.)
Thanks for the praise.

Free Equine Rescue Seminar

What would you do if your horse got stuck in the mud around the pond or at a river crossing? What if he were trapped in an overturned trailer? Those are just two of the scenarios that will be addressed in free equine rescue seminars sponsored by Hagyard-Davidson-McGee Associates at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Ky., on Oct. 23 and 26.

Applied dry, it was a little dusty but very finely milled, and applied dry, it was more metallic but easier to work with and smoother against the skin. It wore well for nine and a half hours without fading. LORAC Mocha (P) is darker, less metallic. Tom Ford Beauty Orchid Haze #2 (P) is less metallic. Sleek MakeUP Python (P, $9.99) is darker.

Hit a rapper with consignment, let him know it's at stake
from Jay Z – Rap Game Crack Game Lyrics on Genius
Consignment refers to giving someone drugs to sell without paying for it upfront. If you get drugs on consignment you then have to sell the drugs and payback. This is very risky and not recommended. Peep Notorious B.I.G.'s "10 Crack Commandments.
Jay uses the concept of consignment to compare what rappers have at stake when they don't produce a quality album/product. Record companies invest millions of dollars into artists and not producing could ultimately end up in that money being lost. This is similar to losing a shipment when on consignment.
We all know rap is a risky business.
