one of the regular CM'ers I saw the whole thing and got a picture of the plate but what pissed me off is the cop refused to do anything about it but they got his badge number

Bikes: Menonite black urbanite, probably enough spare parts to make anther one.
a note to you west enders: there is a great cycling friendly coffee shop on roncesvalles called "cherry bomb". sort of a jet fuel vibe, cycling literature for sale and a custom Alcyon 'cross bike hanging on the wall. i think it belongs to the owner. decent espresso, latte, etc. anyway, nice place to hang out.

Kim didn't make you put plastic down for the biking bretheren? Sounds like a keeper. There seems to be some "special needs" when dating a rider. Like now for example my family knows I control all forms of electronic communication during the Tour.
Dang looks like a fun stage today, hot though. The dreams of a young messenger being played out once again. *sigh* quickly goes over my 'what-if' list. Seems to be a bunch waering bandages though.... I missed that crash, oh well maybe tonight I'll catch it.
