The Badass Gene...

Going Off Course - What is a Badass? In preparation for this post, the MTN Guys asked their staff researcher, a Hawaiian dude named Wiki Pedia, that compelling question. Why? Because St. Louis Park triathlete Sean Michael Pease told us that his grandfather was a total Badass.

Here's what Wiki found: #1 - A Badass is a guy who likes to cause or get into trouble. Examples include Steve Stiffler, Megatron and the Clown guy in the "Saw" movies. Or: #2 - A guy with formidable strength or skill, like a badass guitarist or The Hulk.

Wiki also learned that the Badass Gene skips a generation, which means that Sean may also possess Badassedness.

If you read Sean's bio below, you'll probably become as confused as we used to be. You see, Sean has just as many "Goodass" traits, i.e. non-trouble-causing or non-demonstrating formidable strength or skill, as BA ones.

On the Badass side, Sean loves motorcycles and is skilled at fixing them, plus he has many, many tattoos which make people assume that he's been in prison....
