Today is my first day back at work after a week’s vacation. I just needed some time to myself. We will be moving offices in a month or so and I know I won’t get any time off soon after that. I spent the the week just concentrating on working out, eating healthy and catching [...]
Well, I’ve decided to get back into track cycling. L.A. has the country’s only indoor velodrome and although I’ve been there to watch racing many times, I’ve never ridden on the track ever. I can’t let this opportunity go to waste while I’m here. I still want to to a triathlon in the [...]
Sunday I met up with about 30 people from Bikeforums.net for our Slacker Century bike ride. It was 53 miles from Huntington Beach to Oceanside and back so 106 miles total. Here is the actual route online if you want to see it. It was supposed to be a sloooow fun ride but this [...]

I’m getting a physical soon for life insurance purposes so I’m going to spend the next month really cracking down on the diet and being more consistent with workouts. I needed some event to get me back to that point where I feel guilty [...]

I’m still trying to finalize my travel arrangements. I’ve already [...]
