Holiday Look-alike?
Well, my friendly (I think) coworkers have spoken up and sent me my Holiday Look-alike. For those familiar with the older animated Christmas TV specials… you should recognize the father from the show ”Twas The Night Before Christmas”. Well, at least I have comfy pajamas and a night cap.
So… what do you think?
Is The Euro Mullet Still In Style?
Not to pick on my cycling pal but I have to ask this question.
Is the Euro Mullet still in style?
And if so… is there any difference between the Euro Mullet and the good old American Mullet? I know a couple of years back Tom Boonen was sporting the special style. He may still have a similar cut… [...]
Egg-topia…
In my last post, you saw my first attempt at the:
“Across The Pond, Chicken vs. Duck Egg, Cyclosportive Challenge.”
I look at it as an unsuccesful attempt rather than a failed attempt because the eggs I was supposed to pick up and get home uncracked were sold out. As you may remember, Tom, my challenger and cycling friend in [...]
Shell Shocked!
A few posts back, I mentioned “Fresh Organic Eggs” being sold on one of the routes I ride often. Well, I had mentioned it would be a good challenge for me to sometime try to make it home with a dozen… UNCRACKED!
It just so happens that a new cycling blogger buddy in England, “Easy Tom” rides past a farm that offers up eggs [...]
Whew… What A Climb!
I thought The Cycling Challenge would get a chuckle from this. Let’s call it… Col de Bonsal:
For a little history from my part of the world… the RR tracks you see are part of the old New Hope Valley Railway.
P.S. — The update on the “Across The Pond, Chicken vs. Duck Egg, Cyclosportive Challenge” will come [...]
Preparing for the “Across The Pond, Chicken vs. Duck Egg, Cyclosportive Challenge”
You may have read my posts at the beginning of the week about the “Fresh Organic Eggs” Stand I pass on one of my routes. Well, I had mentioned it would be a good challenge for me to sometime try to make it home with a dozen… UNCRACKED!
ENTER: The worldwide web, another cycling enthusiast and the fact that there are [...]
Another View From My Egg-cellent Ride…
In my last post, I showed you a sign I pass on one of my routes. It reads… ‘Fresh Organic Eggs.’ A friend was asking me where were the eggs? What do you mean in a house/hut? Well, I realized you can see it (the little house) in this other picture I took.
It’s the county line… I’m standing [...]
An Egg-cellent Ride…
I know… with all that cheese… I should make an omelette. I just couldn’t resist. It was a beautiful weekend here in Central North Carolina. I got out for rides on Saturday and Sunday afternoon. Both days were sunny and the temp in the 60’s. I pedal past this sign frequently on one of my favorite routes. [...]
What’s In Your Cycling DVD Library?
As cyclists, we’ve seen a lot of them but how many do we own? I’m talking about cycling movies. In my last post, I was talking about ‘Breaking Away’ and its great soundtrack. Most of you have seen it but a couple have not. A few months back, I watched ’The Flying Scotsman’ with some cycling buddies… it was [...]
Breaking Away In Detail…
I’m sure most of you have seen the great cycling movie “Breaking Away” … Here’s the trailer:
So, a couple of days ago, I was searching for the soundtrack and after clicking a couple of links on Google… I found an 8 year old blog post that detailed all things “Breaking Away.” I not only found some of the music I [...]
