Racing in the 06 Pacific Cup to Hawaii last July. Every couple of days I would get on the radio or satphone and see if anyone knew what was happening in the TdF.

I think your hands were a little fast and you didn't have enough hip rotation on this shot. :)
Thanks Jim Nantz.

Low side heel kick.

Nice yup chagi

Low?

Usually too slow to be an effective scoring blow. Too easy to step in and counter. :)
you're just an expert in everything arent ya? :)

one of my hobbies, standing still and jumping into the air on my snowboard while making ridiculously stupid faces...

Low side heel kick.

Deduct 10 points for working out in non-Bruce-Lee-approved-Converse-All-Stars. The preferred martial arts shoe is Asics/Onitsuka Tigers.

If she was trying to hurt me, I definitely could have been knocked down by that kick. She's got some crazy speed man, you have to see it to understand..

Maybe I'll get a pic of me with a guitar up soon...

OH MY GAWSH!!! :eek:

Hobbies I enjoy most:

1. Eating
2. Sleeping
3. Pooping

Not necessarily always in that order.

P.s.- I didn't think pics were necessary.

Siu, nothing wrong with that kick, sistuh. I see the good heel placement. :D

Taerom, now I want to go snowboarding. I was a skateboarder waaaay back in the day (um, over 30 years ago). Think I could pick it up this late? <hopeful but chicken Vega look>

gbcb, beautiful family. Brought me to tears. Is your grandma still living? She must have been so proud of you that day. That is such a beautiful pic. Thanks for sharing. My paternal gm (last gp living) turns 96 in June. :)

Here is Vega, pursuing her other passion: tennis. Granted it's circa late summer/early fall 2001, I still pretty much look the same. I remember distinctly when this photo was made. I was preparing for my second serve, and had already jacked up my right sleeve à la Agassi, when I stopped to smile for my beloved photographer. And, no, I did not footfault. :rolleyes:

How beautiful, Sabre. The first photo is clever, too.

I was preparing for my second serve, and had already jacked up my right sleeve à la Agassi, when I stopped to smile for my beloved photographer. And, no, I did not footfault. :rolleyes: Wow, that's quite an angle you have there, especially for a second serve. Might you be planning to force your opponent to play wide? ;)

Thanks, VV. Yes, my grandma's still around, but it's been very hard to talk to her on the phone for some time now. Of course, there are good days and bad days, but it can be tough sometimes -- she's always been such a wonderful, strong person, and to see her having real difficulty remembering people close to her is very sad.

When I graduated from university in 2004, I stopped by her home for a few days -- even then (at 98!) she was still living in the same house my dad and his older sister had been born in! It was a wonderful visit -- she was in a great mood and told me all about her trips to the UK, India, Hong Kong, and Japan in the 50s, and about working in a mobile clinic in Northern Alberta in the 30s. I'm so glad I made that visit, but wish I had done more like it while in university.

Glad you liked the photos -- that was the first time in perhaps 15 years or more that we managed to get the whole family together for a picture. I always like visiting my dad's hometown, but this trip was particularly great.

Edit: How do you know Agassi wasn't jacking up his sleeve à la VV? :D

Hadn't set up yet. The photographer had an amazing way of completely distracting me from whatever I was about to do, and gettin' me to smile about it. ;) :)

Thanks for sharing that, gbcb. My gm can hardly speak over the phone anymore, and it's difficult to understand her in person, too. <sigh> Nice that you had the chance to hear her stories. You must pass them down, you know....

Re Agassi. Where do you think he learned that? <serious Vega look>

my other hobby is sittin and starin...tonight I am starin at my new socks....

Ummm. Sleeping would be ok, as long as you're, um, covered. You know. For those who have to look at the photos while actually working. :eek:

How come there's no <rolling eyes while biting half the lower lip emoticon>? Day-um. <serious Vega look>

OH MY GAWSH!!! :eek:
+1

1) which won? the pen or the sword?
2) ever considered including a flaming hula-hoop in your show?
3) friend, you are hawt, even without the long hair! :)

someone must create a serious vega look emoticon....

Not into this as much anymore since I met my bike.....

http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o286/Flycrow/fooster.jpg

Nice, Siu -- I like the plate :D. I'll order a two-four (i.e. a case) of beer for the first Fooster to actually go out and get that as their official plate. ;)

liv rong, I used to smoke, too. And I loved it.

Looks like you are having way too much fun in your life to have to cut it short by age 50. Stop that smokin' shiat, bro'. I used to love it, too, but realized one morning when I awoke with lungs feeling that they were full of water that I should quit. And I was already 25! :eek:

Hope I didn't wait too long, as I'd already smoked probably 20+ pack-years.... Jes' saying, 'cuz I loves me my Foo'ers. :) I does. Don't think otherwise! Dammit. :mad:

Just check it, if that's all ya do, mmkay? http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=257440&highlight=smoker . Please? <most charming Vega look>

Ha ha. I like the plate too. ;)

mmkay. I have to transfer the car title to my name, and my license plate is up for renov this year. Maybe I'll just pull the trigger on a vanity plate. So, can I choose the beer? <serious Vega look>

I have a feeling that I know where this is going... :D

I luv to fish. I also really enjoy being out on the water:
As do my friends who tend to drink more than catch when we
take the boat out

One of my noncycling hobbies, not a pic, but a video and I know some of you have seen them before!

I can't post pictures as my hobbies are grotesque and illegal. Among other things they include, narcoleptic chess, puppy bowling, and crossword puzzles.

bah, Im sure you have a few great pics during activities or hobbies with your cute kids:)

shhhhhhh BDG, I have an image to keep up for my peers, namely SaabFan and Explody Pup. If they knew I enjoyed playing with my kids at the park, they would laugh me out of the cemetary at the next swap meet.
