Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

I smoke/edible no more than like 4-5 times a year now. But I drink myself to oblivion on a semi-regular basis. Hooray for being in college, I guess.

Today I woke up at 3:00 am again. This has been happening like clockwork every night and it's destroying my mood during the day because I can't get a full night's sleep.

I enjoy unwinding at the end of a long day, just a little to calm my nerves and some alcohol to go with dinner. I was crazier in college, now the objective isn't to get obliterated, just to relax.

Today I...woke up somewhat earlier and am about to run out the door for an early ride.

One spring I was about to shave and went after it with the clippers, then just called that good.

Better than wasting money on gas though.

Today it's a beautiful spring day in the 60s and I can't ride far because i'm hangin w/ my 3-year-old. But we did go ride bikes (no training wheels!) with his buddy and his buddy's mom, and that was pretty sweet considering. Love watching little kids spin out their legs on their tiny geared, tiny bikes going fast, swerving around on purpose, looking at the sky, learning to ride in circles or figure 8s...they have so much fun. Reminds me, riding a bike should ALWAYS be fun.

Just got back from running some errands. It was around 50 and cloudy when I left. On the way back, it got windy, the sun was out, it started sprinkling, and I was getting pelted in the face by hail. Eff U Michigan

Don't feel bad. Here in NC this week, i rode to work and it was 50 and sunny. 2 hrs later i took a personal call outside and it was sunny, but 37, and it was sleeting while the sun was shining.
