Thought I'd share this

2007-08-23T21:08:04Z

Ok this happened a week ago, but I was out doing my lunch ride, and as I was pushing my bike back to my car, right in front of me was a man, bent forward (he might be stretching?). It wasn't his bending forward that bothered me, but his butt cheek...

My two favorite cyclists

2007-08-23T20:55:53Z

After watching Tour de France, I sort of developed a tiny crush on two of the riders - Tom Boonen and Alberto Contador. One is a great sprinter, and the other made history by winning the Tour. Great guys. They are definitely the new breed of young...

I didn't fall!

2007-08-17T00:35:49Z

I ventured to the Sawyer Camp Trail this afternoon. This trail is different from the on at Foster City, its more twisty, less flat, and has a pretty steep incline towards the end on the north. I was still nervous when stopping, but today was a goo...

Been a while ...

2007-08-09T18:02:36Z

Since I blogged here. Haven't been riding much in the last couple of weeks. I went riding for the first time after one and a half weeks. I'm still not 100% comfortable with my pedals, just hope it gets better.

The clipless pedal rite of passage

2007-07-09T21:32:42Z

This afternoon I experienced the low speed clipless pedal fall - TWICE! I was having trouble clipping in my right pedal, and I think I pressed in too hard, then as I started to lift my butt onto the seat, somehow it didn't quite land on my saddle,...

New pedals, new shoes, and a drop!

2007-07-02T21:08:59Z

Just got back from the LBS. I wanna say "two thumbs up" to my shop, GoRide Bicycles, at Redwood City, CA. If you ever want to buy a bike and live in the peninsula Bay Area, do check them out. Bob, the owner, was really patient with me today (not t...

100 miles

2007-06-25T20:38:54Z

I bought my bike at the end of May. Now, barely a month later, my odometer tells me that I've pedaled a total of 100 miles. Those aren't commuter miles though, just training.
