This little guy posed for several photos at a range of about a foot. I don’t think he was quite up to flying yet, and while I’m not sure, I think this was an immature, only-sorta-flying robin, of the type common around here (except they always have a solid red breast without the black marks […]

Behold the BMX LX, an experimental project which was sorta-completed at today’s bike party. Warning: bigger version is quite big, allowing you to see several amusing details: 7-speed Deore LX rear gears mated to a late-80s Factory Kuwahara frame. The seat is my usual Selle Italia Nitrox, but in black because this bike is supposed […]

Warning, Boring Ride Report Ahead No, not really. In fact, this is a fascinating, EPIC ride report! Monday night, after amusingly destroying Proximate Drea’s tire while demonstrating the operation of a Presta valve, I made the plans for the perfect ride. The problem: doing some work at the Coquitlam campus in the morning, then going […]

Too much lamb. Some fun pictures of the weekend’s bacchanal at the in-laws. A quick captioning of the photos in the link: lamb, kokouretsi and Tony, lamb; lamb, The Lovely One, Teo’s daughter and Mike. I feel pretty good considering how much food I ate. One highlight of the party was watching a cook take […]

Day of the Zinger I made my co-workers laugh, full-on and uncontrollably, for about 5 minutes today after pulling an unintentional pratfall as I tried to sit down. But The Lovely One got the best lines of today: “Good movies don’t need to be re-made, because they were already made!” “The British have Shakespeare, the […]

Volunteerism So I went and did my first stint of corner-work for the Tuesday Nighters. I wasn’t bitter (well maybe a little), but I haven’t ridden in the first two WTNC races now, and I haven’t ridden a race since the minor fiasco that was my Harris-Roubaix experience about a month ago. I want to […]

Weekend Update Did anything happen on Saturday? I can’t remember. Must have been a quiet day. No, wait, it was quite the opposite. First, I sold the motorcycle.
