Hide your children
I guess I should catch up on mileage. I’ve lost track of my exact routes, so I’m guessing (probably within 1/2 mile) on some of these. I’ll be conservative (don’t tell Knarf) and round down. January 28: 1.7 January 27: … Continue reading
Mileage report
January 23rd: 5.4 January 22nd: 1.7 January 21st: 2.9 Annual Mileage: 105 (Woohoo! I broke 100 miles!) Miles to go: 4895 I weighed myself the other day. Looks like I’ve lost about 5 pounds this month. Another woohoo!
Odds and ends
Cleaning out the mental attic here. Lots of crap, cruft and other boring stuff. I’ll start with mileage. January 20th: 2.6 miles (15F, feels like 2!) January 19th: 20 miles! w00t! January 18th: 1.4 January 17th: 4 January 16th: 2.6 … Continue reading

Fixed-gear fiasco
The fixie is done. The bars are wrapped and the brake lever is where I want it. I’ve ridden nothing else the last two days and plan to ride it again tonight. Tomorrow morning I’ll have to trailer the girls … Continue reading

Saving time
Sometimes the bike isn’t so convenient, relatively speaking. In reality, it only takes a few minutes to ride to the supermarket – not much longer than driving. Last weekend’s ride to the LBS took me 35 minutes (uphill) and 25 … Continue reading

Numb
It’s numb in here. I can hear the keys clicking, but I don’t feel it. There’s no resistance. No clickety. No thwump against the paper. It is more artificial but less plastic than the real thing. There is nothing to … Continue reading
