Yep, Saturday 25th October for the next climb:

Hahaha, well played :)

It's pretty easy, first time I did it was without a map. You just want to follow all the signs that say "lower don recreational trail" or "don recreational trail". I believe it's also marked as bike route 45. I regularly take it from Broadview park up to Lawrence and Leslie

www.shapelike.com ... site's up now. If anyone has a lead on a place looking for a junior web designer or some freelance work, please get in touch.

Edit: feedback is of course appreciated. I'm starting to send this around to people now so feel free to tell me any comments/criticism that you might have (PM away). Today's mission is to get live sites up and running for everything in my portfolio, for example. Then there's always making IE play nice with everything and on and on ... ;)

Clean, simple, interesting design with the #a's cool scrolling effect. Lots of j-query effects!
What are you using for editing, your source is tab-crazy! :)

*tap tap tap* ... happy now? ;)

Textmate on the Mac. I like it a lot for text editing (eg. it took all of 10 seconds to change the formatting on my tabs and upload a new version to the server).

And as for jQuery/javascript in general, I did my homework and decided to put my eggs in that particular basket as opposed to Flash.

****, my mistake. It's Hamilton this Sunday, ya. Could you PM me your # so I can confirm the ride with you and where/when you want me to meet up Sunday morning? Sara's still down to come along and cheer/heckle if there's room in the van. Thanks for hooking me up with a ride!

Much better :)

I use Gedit for Linux which is very similar to Textmate.

tips for healing a pulled groin?



it hurts like a mother****er and makes riding with 2 feet very sore

Don't use it. Pulled groins are a b!tch to heal. Usually I ignore dr.s orders, but groin pulls take forever to heal. Be carefull.

I finally learned how to do a proper 'cross remount tonight. Booya. :)

Reading the Karma Sutra are you.

You know it. Wanna party?

is that legal?

I was just sitting in my study in a semi-drunken fog, playing 'Wish You Were Here' on my guitar, in honour of Rick Wright, when my wife walked in and dropped $20 in my guitar case. I'll be outside the liquor store on Sat.

wow thats good money, im gonna come busk outside your house!

Not really. My wife is a student, so technically it was my money to begin with...

I'm married, with a small child. You know I want to party.

did i not just say thats illegal?


i want in

hahahaha.. I hear you buddy! :P

I really need to figure out why my rear wheel is sticking in the dropouts of my Bianchi. Last night after CX I pushed it forward in the dropouts to change to my other gear (2x2 dinglespeed), then I couldn't get it to slide back again. I couldn't get it to move.. I kept trying different positions (kama sutra?), but couldn't get enough leverage. FINALLY it let go.

Unfortunately when it did so the disc brake rotor went straight into my shin. Whoops. A trip to the hospital later I'm glued (Dermabond) back together. Funny thing is that I didn't realize I had a 1cm deep, 5cm long gash in my leg until someone else pointed it out. It was heinous looking (like an open mouth), but surprisingly didn't bleed much.

Things that are good:

My wife commuting by bike everyday so far.
Not putting gas in the car since the last week of August.

Bad:

Shredding the sidewall of a week old tire.
The 'new' 90210. I admit to watching the first episode, and my brain is still angry with me.

You didn't .... *smack*

To Wes Oddjob'n himself on his disk... eeeew heal up well. Cover that up nice when out crossn' lest .... "Does this look infected?" I can't remember are disks legal for pro level cross racing? This slice and dice just might be why, in the rare instance of a pile up.
