To the mountains...

my bmc mountain bike

I carefully selected bits and pieces. I dreamed of putting this together one day. And then, through the wonder of EBay and the sale of stuff from my former life, I have a new bike. It’ll never be this clean again!

Glenn, Bill, Wendy and others at Piermont Bike Connection really did a great job on the build. Yeah, it took a long time because no one followed up on a missing bit or two, but other than torturing me, there’s no harm done. It’s a BMC FS01 (2006). Let me know if you want nitty gritty build details.

Crack Down on Drivers, Not iPods

Crack Down on Drivers, Not iPods: What have we done now? It’s like Menachem Begin said once, in a different context: Goyim kill goyim, and they come to hang the Jews. In this case, it’s drivers kill peds, and while Kruger wants to hang the peds, the Times wants to hang some… cyclists. Really, you can’t make this stuff up. [Yeah. What he said.]
