So, the triple H. The Horribly Hilly Hundreds was good this year. I beat my previous best time handily. The last time I finished it took my 11 and a half hours. I don't know if that included breaks, but my average speed was just over 12mph. This year my ride time was 9:34 without breaks and about 10 and a half hours including breaks. My ( Read more... )

I broke one of my rules today on my ride. The rule is: ride your own ride, set you own pace and stick with it. Don't get suckered in to following the fast kids.

Am I dissapointing my hypothetical public by not sharing every little detail of my life?  Or am I a boring person that thinks he's interesting only to be proven wrong everytime I ( Read more... )

I love Metalocalypse.  But it is like rich food, I can only take so much at a time.  I have season two on DVD,  so it will be a good week with 3-4 episodes every night.   What's not to love?

mmm. snow.  I loves it.  Ski season is finally here.  It is the time of year for mental health and being able to cope with anything.  I store up angst and frustration all week and within two runs of my Saturday ski trip it is all gone, like it never even happened ( Read more... )
