Saturday Group Ride - July 17, 2010

We had a pretty good turnout for today’s ride with a total of 7 people showing up. The weather couldn’t be any better with everybody thoroughly enjoying the morning ride. The group included a few men from the Cloverdale Baptist Church men’s group organized by Peter. Congratulations to Peter as not only is this his first [...]

Lunchtime Walkabout

My friend and co-worker Peter, and I went for a walk today around the campus while I tested a Blackberry GPS exercise tracking application. My Garmin Edge 305 is acting kind of funky lately powering down mid ride and scrambling data so it looks like I will have to send it in for repair. As a result I [...]

Commute Home from Work - Garmin Connect

While I am not going to blog about every commute, today’s was important being my first day back on the bike in just over 2 months. My shoulder surgery recovery has been slower than I had hoped and there is still a ways to go, but things are now improving more quickly so today was very [...]

Musings and Goals for 2010

As I am now well on the road to recovery from my recent shoulder surgery, I think it is time to post my personal goals for 2010 even if a little late. It has been an interesting start to the year to say the least. Most of these goals are cycling, fitness or health related and [...]

The last few days have been pretty good and my recovery is starting to progress more quickly which means that my surgeon’s prognosis of a March 25th return to work will be very accurate. As it is a Thursday it will work very much to my benefit as it will give [...]

Year End Review

Well we have come to the end of another year and another decade. Where has the time gone? As it’s now the end of another year it is time for a year end review of the past year’s events as well as re-evaluate the goals I had set for 2009. After reviewing and assessing my 2009 [...]

Surgery Update

The surgery went without a hitch today, but I have a bit of a black eye because of all the blood vessels in the area. Now that the anesthetic is wearing of it is also becoming a bit sore so I think I will be taking it easy for a few days. This also means no [...]

Recumbent update and "Under the knife"

While my recumbent research is ongoing I have narrowed down my choices the two recumbent manufacturers, Performer Recumbents and Big Cat HPV (Human Powered Vehicles). Cambie cycles is a local Catrike dealer and Actionbent in Redmond, WA are the closest Performer dealers. Now it is time to compare and decide on the right model.

In the meantime [...]

Changes

It has come time to re-evaluate a few things related to my cycling. It’s no secret to anyone who knows me that cycling has become a very big part of my life. With the various health issues I have, cycling became an activity that I not only enjoyed but has been responsible for a return to [...]
