Sterling

Sterling has always been a super race. Well supported, a good value, and race I’ve had decent results at. I’ve found myself in DA BREAK at this race several times, usually getting popped at some point. BUT THIS YEAR WILL BE DIFFERENT (will it?).

Marblehead, AKA OH HEY BIKES.

I haven’t raced my bike since Mayor’s Cup. Since 2005 I’ve raced cross, but then 2012 was a busy year and I had to choose between “racing bikes” and “being a functional human being”. So it was a long time between bike races, and though one would expect me to be SUPER ABSURDLY EXCITED about ...

Lotus Notes OSX Alert 3

Lotus Notes OSX Alert (mp3) You may have heard that I use Lotus Notes at work as an “email” “client” (both are in quotes because Lotus Notes is so fucking terrible I refuse to put it in the same category as Gmail, Postbox or Pine). You may also have heard me bitching on Twitter about how ...

Food times 3

This weekend I planned on a bunch o’ bike riding, which included one day with Alex Cox and probably the Exeter ride on Sunday. GENERALLY, all of my bike riding energy comes from pre-ride french toast (or pancakes) and mid-ride Snickers bars (unless I’m racing then it’s…still Snickers bars, but sometimes Clif bars). But both cost ...

SO! 9767 miles 524 hours 5696 miles of bicycle commuting Those are really the only stats I have. So um yes. Bicycles. I like ...

Some Things About Heckling in a Cross Race 8

I was talking to Steve and Cosmo today (in different instances of the Google chat), and we were talking about heckling. And then JD Bilodeau tweeted some things that make sense!

The Boring iPhone 5

iPhone 5. Super, whatever, I’ll probably get one when my contract is up. However, John Moltz is a funny man. Eventually Apple will just make phones out of unicorn horn and the dewy moisture that collects between Scarlett Johansson’s breasts when she does hot yoga. (Technically, any yoga done by Scarlett Johansson is “hot yoga” ...

Talkin’ Bout Bicycle Racing – Portsmouth Criterium 3

Whaaaaaat?!? A bicycle race report? Yep. They have been few and far between this year, because I got hit with a dumptruck full of adulthood and a Honda Civic full of Lyme Disease but hey, whatchu gonna do.
