Airport Cycling
I'm sitting in the Sea-Tac airport dreading flying to SFO for a work seminar that I couldn't care less about. It's not the flight that concerns me, or even the junk-groping peeping tom TSA agents. It's the fact that sitting here in the airport waiting for my flight is the only down time I'll have all week.
This is supposed to be the slow season at work, but it seems to be just the opposite.
My only saving grace is the new issue of Mountain Bike Action resting on the all so comfortable airport seat next to me. In just a couple of hours I will be in a cab with my 400lb (no joke!) chain smoking boss discussing work things...mostly how everything that goes wrong is my fault.
While he's huffing and puffing about some bullshit I don't care about, I'll be dreaming of cycling. Road cycling. Mountain cycling.
All things pedal powered and quiet.

Work Too Much Ride Too Little
Due to my ridiculous work schedule as of late, I've been driving to the office more and more and riding less and less, which makes me fat, tired and sad.
The fixie calls to me every morning when I wake up and the Raleigh Clubman glares at me each time I open the shed.
The only saving grace is that we've had great mountain biking weather on the weekends.

Cycling Turkey Enthusiast
Not only am I a commuter, but I'm an enthusiast in general. I go for a ride pretty much every major holiday just for grins. This Thanksgiving was mountain biking with the rigid Redline Monocog SS.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

New Helmet Camera Setup
Recieved a GoPro Hero camera for an early Christmas present. Here's some poorly edited footage of a quick winter cruise in the country. I'm currently using Open Shot for editing, but I've been having some issues with it as of late. Any suggestions?
