Driven Cycling Academy

Posted on April 7, 2021May 25, 2021 by purresadmin

Driven Cycling

We would like to recognize Driven Cycling Academy which is ran by local BMX Pro Jeff Upshaw. The Treasure Valley is very LUCKY to have a mentor/teacher of the sport.

BMX is a competitive sport that all ages can join! It is a blast to see the 60+ cruiser classes! Nothing is more satisfying than watching the strider riders as young as 1 and 2 years old riding!

Currently we have 2 tracks in the valley, Eagle park BMX and Caldwell BMX. USA BMX runs the events, and keeps track of points for every rider.

We had the opportunity to interview Coach Jeff and ask some questions.

How long have you lived in the Treasure Valley area?

I moved to the Treasure Valley September of 2017. Going on 4 years this September.

Where did you live prior to the Treasure Valley?

I have maneuvered around to find my place to excel in the sport. I moved here from sunny San Diego where I lived for 2 years prior, training for the 2016 BMX Olympic team.

How long have you been racing BMX?

November 9th will be my 27th season.

How did you get involved in BMX?

My father was a D.A.R.E officer in the military. He did some research about BMX for a project he had made out for his D.A.R.E program attendees, the goal was to come up with non traditional sports for the youth to get involved in. We went out to a BMX track prior to my 7th birthday and I have been hooked ever since.

Do you mind explaining what BMX stands for? For those who may have never heard of it?

BMX stands for Bicycle Motocross

What was the most exciting or thrilling BMX event you have been a part of?

I would have to say the 2013 USA BMX grand Nationals

What made this event the most exciting event?

In 2013 I was going through a very tough time. Things started heading in a better direction for me leading up to the Grands. However, earlier that year my father had been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. We unfortunately said our final good byes just a few weeks prior to the Grands and that race was my first race with out him being on the side lines or even just a phone call away. I never questioned going though as I know BMX is what my father always wanted for me. It was even more special to me because my mother—who normally doesn’t like to travel, attended that race weekend. We traveled there together and had a great time. I ended being on the podium on day 1 and got the over all win on day 2. I shared the stage with my mom and got to say a few words about my dad. Definitely a day to remember.

7a. Is BMX a safe sport for the Treasure Valley Youth?

Yes, There is a lot of positives that come from the sport of BMX. At the BMX track you get to put on a helmet and become your own character. It is a individual sport so it helps the rider find their identity through hard work, dedication and overcoming adversity day in and day out. No one sits the bench in BMX, you get rewarded based on how much effort you put in—such as life. Self development is built on 2 wheels and a BMX track. The kid who would get picked on at school because he may not have fit in with a specific group, fits right in at the BMX track. We all share the same passion and that’s to become better at our craft.

How could the youth start BMX racing?

If you are looking to get started In BMX I would recommend you to come on out to the local track (Eagle park BMX or Caldwell BMX) to check it out. While at the track you will find families and local track members to help you along your journey. The community is very helpful and loving.

How often could the youth race?

In certain Parts of the country you can race up to 2-5x a week. Here In Boise we have a pretty full schedule with racing being 2-3 a week (Wednesday evenings, Friday nights) and practice running Monday and Tuesday between both tracks.

Would you mind explaining what Driven Cycling Academy does for the youth?

Driven Cycling Academy is a program to help riders learn how to be prepared for competition day. We use a group style training format where riders get to compete against there team mates who are similar in skill level week in and week out. This program has been known to build bonds and friends ships as well as helping those riders gain confidence and trust into the process of becoming who they desire to be in the sport. Riders have 2-8 days a month of in person training with me and also a training app with home work to help them be ready for the test (Race day)

How many youth are currently on the team?

Driven consists of 3 programs. Development, National and Elite. The development program has youth riders from the age 6-15 currently. The national team has riders from the age 9-48. The Elite portion of the program is set up for those rider who are considered graduated expert riders, ages ranging from 13-23. Each program is based on the needs desired at the time you sign up.

Does the Driven Cycling Academy program help build confidence?

It does. As well as communication, trust and the ability to believe in yourself and to help encourage those around you

Can anyone join the team?

Not just anyone can join the Driven team. There is a few things that we look for when choosing riders to join the program such as, committed, respectful, and humble riders willing to learn. The rest of the tools can be taught once those traits are found

How would one interested find out more information?

You can email us at DrivencyclingAcademy@gmail.com for now. Website to come in the upcoming weeks… https://www.drivencyclingacademy.com/

We had the opportunity to speak with some of the riders on the Driven Cycling Academy team. The following are questions and answers for a few of the Expert riders. In order to become an expert you must first win 10 Novice wins, then 20 Intermediate wins. This shows the levels of bmx each person can attain in the USA BMX.

Common Restoration

How Does the Water Damage Restoration Process Work?

The first step is to remove standing water from flooring, wet carpet and other affected materials. Once all the water is removed, dehumidifiers, air movers and other specialized equipment are used to dry the affected area. This typically takes 2 to 5 days, depending on but not limited to saturation time, type of materials and atmospheric conditions. We use moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras to determine when your home is thoroughly dry.

How Long Should the Water Cleanup Take?

Full restoration consists of two major phases. The first, mitigation, consists of demolition, cleaning and drying the structure. This phases typically takes 2 to 5 days. The second phase, repairs can take anywhere from a couple days to 4 weeks depending on the degree of damage and lead time for materials. Certain materials like Cabinets, Custom Wood, High End Floorings can take extended time to ship. We will work with and your insurance provider to get your property back to normal as quickly as possible.

How Much Does it Cost to Fix Water Damage?

The cost of water damage cleanup depends on the size of the flooded area and amount of time needed to handle the water repair. If your insurance policy covers the water damage you are only responsible for your deductible. The average water loss is just over $7,000. When properly dried in a timely manner you can prevent secondary damages or more costly issues, like mold.

What are the Different Categories of Water?

Clean water – Category 1 – Poses no harm to people. This includes water damage caused from any fresh water supply, water heater, sink overflow, appliance malfunction.
Gray water – Category 2 – Can cause harm and illness to people. This includes water damage which has significant amounts of contamination, biological, chemical, or physical.
Black water – Category 3 – Can cause severe harm or illness to people. Black water is highly unsanitary and contains pathogenic agents. Black water typically comes from beyond the trap, sewage backups, ground water, etc.

Can Water Damage Cause Mold?

Water damage certainly has the potential to cause mold growth. Mold thrives in moist environments with any moisture, especially high humidity areas. In order to keep energy efficiency, modern homes are insulated to reduce loss of energy. This also allows for moisture to stay hidden and not dry if not inspected properly.

Can Water Damage be Hidden? If so, What are the Signs?

Water damage is most often hidden. Some common signs of water intrusion are paint peeling, MDF base swelling, particle boards swelling, condensation, musky odors, damp or wet carpet, etc.

Tony and Victoria were great to work with. They responded quickly to our call and set up an appointment to come to the house within 48 hours. They walked me through the “why” of our water damage and the “how” to fix it and prevent further damage. They were always on time , clean, friendly, and professional. When they finished their work our wall looked like nothing had ever happened. We will use them again in the event we need more restoration work done.

Tony and Victoria are just great people to deal with! I had a water issue and they handled it promptly and professionally. They give you a time that they will be there and show up exactly on time. All work is done professionally and thoroughly. They clean everything up thoroughly and take any trash away. I would highly recommend them!

If I could give this company 10 stars, I would! They came out the very next morning after I contacted them to look at some issues that cropped up on my home inspection report. When Tony & Victoria arrived, they were professional and considerate of my home being in a 'staged-to-sell' state (they were very clean!). Tony walked through the issues I requested them to look at (molding in attic, efflorescence in the basement, acoustic ceiling tiles) and assured me they could handle everything quickly! And they were right! I showed them a copy of the home inspection report and found out they were able to restore much more than I had originally thought. They rebuilt a crumbling chimney, cleaned out my gutters, re-taped some HVAC duct work and I can't even remember what else. It was like a one-stop shop and I couldn't be happier with the quality of service, timely response and respect I was treated with. Highly, highly recommend their services! I asked for a stack of cards to give away to friends :).

Out of the 3 places I called Pursuit was the first to respond, took care of business and were professional. Thank you Tony and the Pursuit Restoration team!

Home Safety Tips Against Intruders

Posted on July 27, 2020July 27, 2020 by purresadmin

How to Protect Our Assets from Intruders

The thought of a home intrusion or burglary is something that is everyone’s worst nightmare. Our homes are not built to be completely intruder-proof. The good news is you can take action to minimize the chances that your home will be attacked. Check out some home security tips below.

Look for weaknesses around your home- Inspect the outside of your home for anything that could make it vulnerable to burglars. For example, ensure that screens are secured, windows don’t easily pry open, or left open. While you’re outside, look through your windows to check if your valuables, such as electronics or jewelry can be easily spotted. By moving them out of view this could deter thieves from entering your home.
Trim shrubs and trees in your yard- Burglars can use untrimmed shrubs around your house to cover and hide. Trees and bushes can be used to gain access to the second level as well. Robbers could use long tree branches to break into your home. Thus, keep your shrubs and vegetation trimmed – under two feet in height and at least two feet away from the house.
Install a fence- Intruders rarely want to jump over fences while carrying stolen goods. If you don’t have a fence already, build one to keep unwanted visitors at bay. Choose a style like an open chain-link or ornamental metal fencing that’s secured into concrete. If solid fences are installed it may be easier to climb and may offer thieves a place to hide.
Use curtains or blinds on windows- Keeping your goods inside is a good idea, but you also need to ensure they can’t be seen from the outside. Put up curtains or blinds in your home, in your garage, and in front of basement windows for privacy and protection.
Keep windows, doors, and gates locked- Never leave your garage door open even if you’re at home!! Invest in a quality padlock for your outside entrances. On the outside fences install latches with locks on top and bottom. This will ensure the fence wont be able to pry open. To reinforce your doors, install deadbolts in addition to locks on the door handle itself. Don’t leave your home without locking the windows and doors, even if it’s a short trip.
Have large numbers for your house- Install large and reflective numbers on both your house and mailbox. This helps police easily identify your home in case of an emergency. Crooks prefer homes that are hard to identify as it can buy them time to run.
Secure valuables in a safe- A good safe not only keeps your valuables safe from theft, it also keeps them safe from flooding, fire or other disasters. If you have a small safe or lock-box, consider bolting it to the floor to prevent thieves from taking it. Also, keep your safe in an area of your home that’s hard to access.
Install a home security system- In today’s market home security systems are not only affordable but very easy to use! Home security system can be customized with tons of features. From the basic doorbell wireless camera, to the intricate full home security system with door and window sensors and 12+ camera systems. In addition to the security system, install sensor lighting outside your home. This can help deter thieves as it gives light to the area occupied.
Get a dog- A large breed such as a German Shepherd is the ultimate security system. They provide advanced warning of thieves and can be reliable during power outages. Thieves hate noisy and protective dogs. (Please train your dogs to respect your local ordinances. We Love all animals!)
Befriend your neighbors- It helps a huge deal to know that your neighbors are on the lookout for suspicious activity around your home. You should do the same for them! Get to know your neighbors so you can tip each other off in case a thief sneaks into your neighborhood.

By putting these tips into practice, you’ll hopefully discourage unwanted intruders from entering into your home. The fewer weaknesses your home has, the less likely it is to get robbed.

Tony and Victoria provided the best service you could ask for. So many people don’t even respond any more. Pursuit Restoration responded immediately throughout the remediation process (burst hot water line under our house that ruined the whole area). We were out of town and they were incredibly reliable and trustworthy. The work is top notch. The crawl space under the house looks brand new. We highly recommend Tony and his team ... we wish they did other kinds of work too!

From the first call to the end of the job the communication was out of this world! We had a toilet overflow upstairs. Tony and Victoria were able to arrive within an hour. Before we knew it the mess was cleaned up and everything was drying. After the drying was done Tony helped with the repairs to be completed. We had our home back to normal in about 3 weeks! Thank you for your services.

Exterior Water Damage

Posted on July 6, 2020April 7, 2021 by purresadmin

Tips to Prevent Water Damage to Exterior of Home

Water can enter your home in many ways and end up damaging the foundation. To fight back against water intrusion, take preventative measures both on your home’s interior and exterior.

Here are essential tips to safeguard your home’s exterior from water damage or mold occurring.

Roof

Check your roof to ensure the shingle’s, flashing’s or tile’s aren’t missing, broken, cracked, curled or damaged in any other ways.
Make sure the vents, flues, chimneys, air conditioners, and evaporative coolers are properly installed and in good shape.
Check for leaks around rooftop air-conditioning units, vents for exhaust or plumbing, or other specialized equipment.
Cut tree limbs that hang above your roof, so they don’t cling to shingles and trap moisture. Leaves or twigs can also clog your gutters.

Pursuit Restoration is continuously working with Treasure Valleys roofing contractors and can refer a company at request.

Gutters and Downspouts

Ensure these are clean, free from debris, and in good condition so that water can flow freely.
Install metal screens to prevent leaves, twigs, silt and other debris from clogging the gutters and drainage holes.
Ensure downspouts direct water at least five feet away from your home’s foundation. Install downspout extensions if needed. (Follow video link… Attaching Gutter Extensions)

Pursuit Restoration is continuously working with Treasure Valleys Gutter contractors and can refer a company at request.

Doors and Windows

Check for leaks near the corners of your doors and windows. Signs of leaks include peeling paint, paint discoloration or swollen frame.
Protect exterior doors and windows from the sun, rain, and snow by installing overhangs above them.
Close your doors and windows to check for a tight fit. Look for cracks between the sash and frame of your windows.
Repair or replace damaged flashing or weather-stripping around windows.

Pursuit Restoration is continuously working with Treasure Valleys Window contractors and can refer a company at request.

Walls

Check and repair cracked or broken siding boards, bricks, stone or other masonry, as well as structural sheathing.
Seal any openings from wiring, plumbing, phone, cable, and heating and air conditioning lines with foam or caulk. Repair any damaged or unpainted wood surrounding these openings.
Check for signs of termite activity on the walls and the wooden structures around your foundation. Termites can eat wood, plaster, and even metal siding.
Ensure that the exhaust vent doors properly open and close.
Remove any shrubs and other landscaping features from along the walls.
When irrigating the garden, avoid directing water towards the house to prevent excessive water near the foundation.
Foundation vents should be free of debris and properly working to be opened and closed throughout the temperature changes. (Follow video… Open/Close Foundation Vents.)

Pursuit Restoration is continuously working with Treasure Valleys Siding, Framing, or Any other contracting services and can refer a company at request.

Keeping your home free from water damage is critical. If your home has suffered damages Pursuit Restoration provides a Free Inspection for your comfort and knowledge.
