Let the fun begin.

Re-cycling


So I got to thinking the other day.

Is buying a plastic composter bin re-cycling?

How about Bio fuel? They are usually blowin smoke out that exhaust and I think you gotta plan your route for the long road trip accordingly.

If I put paper in the shreader, then I use it to get the fire started in the fireplace is that re-cycling?

If I use all the hair from my legs and made a rug for you know...is that re-cycling?

If I sneak a piece of wood in the re-cycle bin every now and then, is that re-cycling?

If I save wine box shippers from being thrown in the trash, and shipping vino to my parents for the holidays is that re-cycling?

If I use a Velo Promo t-shirt to wipe my chain lube off the garage floor, is that re-cycling?

If I find a full gu on the side of the road and save it for a later date, is that re-cycling???

If I use a dead turkey neck for making stock for risotto and feeding it to non meat eaters, Is that re-cycling?

If I use the left over oak hardwood flooring to start a fire in the fireplace so when my girl comes home its warm and cozy like and I might get some, is that re-cycling?

If I open the oven and let the heat warm up the room after making lasagna, is that re-cycling?


I'm trying, really I am.

Eureka is open to bikes..




Sat Ride-8:30 am Cafe Sienna. We hooked into a few of the locals (Los Gatos Cycling Team), last week so there were about 8 that went the distance. There was one wearing a yellow jersey, he liked going fast. He will figure the group thing out.

oh yhea.

If you run out of gas in Corrolitos, stop and get one of those andouille sausages. That thing has been following me around all week. I wish I could blame it on Mr Fish.

T Day starts with a Mtn bike ride.


Tracey and I are heading up to the top of Kennedy from our house at 9am. Heard there is a gathering on the top, keg and all.

I'll steer clear of the beering and descending. After all, I gotta big bird to cook.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Toto, follow the yellow brick road


Man its sooo good to be home! After being in Tucson, Phx, Sedona, Grand Canyon, Denver, Vail, & Aspen I'm offically cooked, stick a fork in me I'm done! I did get a chance to ride the Break Away in Aspen into thin air.


I've got a couple of weeks to ride, send emails, go to the gym, etc.

Looking forward to Thanksgiving in our kitchen, Tracey did an awesome job picking out everything from the cabinets, floor, paint, countertops, faucet, etc.. glad its almost done and the writing of check$$$$ is over.

I'm going to miss my family and my little niece who calls Thanksgiving "the Feast"

We're going to have some two wheeled friends over for a Feast to remember. Can't wait!
