The Bicycle Story

now boarding: san diego

Posted on September 18th, 2008 by Robert

Nuclear Cooling TowerI ran across this on the hard drive today. It was from an early logo sketch that I was working on that never really panned out. It still makes me smile. Maybe I’ll develop it out a bit and make a t-shirt or something.

Jane managed to snag some last minute tickets on the cheap to San Diego for Willy’s wake this weekend. I’ve been wanting go back down there. Not like this of course, but we will try to get around anyways.

I’ve got a soft spot in (and on) my belly for some good mexican food. It has been too long…

There is a little chain fast food joint in Santee that sells a breakfast burrito that is built just to ruin any fitness I might have gained. It has hash browns, sausage, bacon, eggs, cheese and sour cream in a massive tortilla. Top it off with some of the best hot sauce around and you have one case of me getting fat again.

Like I said, I’ll take the little pleasures when I can get them.

We are hoping to regroup with some old friends while we are down there. There are some many people that have touched my life at one point or another, it will be nice to reconnect.

 

Chris and I have been on a quest for our R-12′s and we keep hitting these damn road blocks along the way.

The last two months have been pretty well filled for each of us, forcing us to get our ride in on the last possible weekend of the month. This is coupled with the fact that we only share one day off on any given week (Saturday). I am not about to choke now though, even though it might mean missing the annual SIR meeting on the 27th to achieve it. I’ve always been told that the months after the season is over are the hardest to maintain.

Obligations that don’t involve bike riding are kind of silly, yes?

Start Friday night, ride the permanent all night, come to the road cleanup, and then join us for annual meeting. Beer will taste fabulous after that.
