  • Don’t mind the snow!

    I just saw this new feature on wordpress so I thought it would be fun to enable it — especially since there is a chance of snow here today! It looks like it will be an indoor ride for me with heavy rain expected the rest of the day … massive storm system … check…

  • I didn’t know the off-season could be this busy!

    So it is definitely the off-season. One way I know that is because of the number of projects that have managed to make it to the queue for processing. I am working on the development of two different websites in addition to creating a toolkit for monitoring Ajax performance as part of my academic research.…

  • 2008 – End of the year review

    Personally, this was definitely my best season ever. Also, as a team we had our strongest year yet and things are looking absolutely amazing for next year. I am in the middle of a Windows Vista installation so I thought I would take a minute or two to report my 2008 statistics. I’ll report from…

While I was at Clemson, I had a 200 mile loop from Clemson with an insane amount of climbing including…

  • Ivan Basso, Doping, and Redemption

    Ivan Basso will be racing again very soon at the Japan Cup on October 26. I personally am glad that he is racing again, and I hope that he really has put the temptation to dope behind him. I like his plan of publishing all of his workouts, power data, etc… online so that people…

  • Flat tires

    With two flat tires in two consecutive days, I thought it was worth posting about my bad luck. Yesterday on the way into work, I had not made it a mile from my house and my rear tire was flat. I didn’t hear a popping or deflating noise, it just went flat so I thought…
