Birds, bikes, and beer. Strong opinions about small matters. Monday, December 15, 2014. Woke up. Rear tire was flat. Changed it quickly but the good floor pump was in the car. Arrived on the verge of late. Snap decisions –Reflectorized vest and ankle straps, purple vest… Don’t need the other jacket, it’s not going to rain. Pumped tire, checked food stash. Rode to the Safeway meeting spot. Five minutes to spare! Made a pit stop, grabbed a banana and got my start receipt. Phew! Oing to be c-. The ladies br...

Birds, bikes, and beer. Strong opinions about small matters. Saturday, September 21, 2013. 11% Can Seem Flat. After I broke my elbow in April, I was determined to come back and complete the Death Ride. I began training again as soon as I got clearance from my doctor. Not letting a small brain injury (was relieved that the cat scan revealed that there actually is. We have SAG support so water isn't an issue. But the heat. Finally, after more downs and ups, we reach the SAG in the shade near the road to An...

Birds, bikes, and beer. Strong opinions about small matters. Tuesday, April 15, 2014. 8220;What time are we rolling? 8220;8AM,” I reply. 8220;No, it was 7:30.”. 8220;No, it's 8. Jim and I are in the Park and Ride parking lot and rolling at 8.”. 8220;Balls. I'm going to be a few minutes late.”. But of course he would have been on time if we were rolling a half hour earlier?

birds, bikes, and beer: August 2015

http://birdsbikesandbeer.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html

Birds, bikes, and beer. Strong opinions about small matters. Sunday, August 9, 2015. Bee Stings and Broken Spokes. Jason set the tone at the meet up: I need caffeination. Where? Old La Honda winds through wooded slopes and horse property on the way to Skyline. It's a “pleasant” climb on a hot day because of all the shade. The shade was a key factor in deciding this route. It was gonna be hot and riding coastal was the way to stay cool. He doesn't even have hair on his legs yet! When is this going to end?

http://birdsbikesandbeer.blogspot.com/2014/11/right-church-wrong-pew.html

Birds, bikes, and beer. Strong opinions about small matters. Sunday, November 16, 2014. Right Church, Wrong Pew. A Series of Unfortunate Events (apologies to Mr. Snicket).

From there, our filed route was up to St. Helena and then over the ridge at Lake Berryessa to drop to Winters and then on to Davis for the convergence on Sudwerks. After a wicked...

birds, bikes, and beer: I got nuthin'

http://birdsbikesandbeer.blogspot.com/2015/07/i-got-nuthin.html

Birds, bikes, and beer. Strong opinions about small matters. Friday, July 3, 2015. I've lost my cycling mojo. My little Bianchini leans against the armoire in the living room and mocks me. Bike number two has become a dog gate to the bedroom and bike number three has flat tires and no seat. It's a sad state of affairs and I find myself inertial. Waistline expands, climbing muscles atrophy. What's to be done? Posted by B.B.B. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). But enough about you. A Random List of Blogs.
