No Way

I park my car in Petreo Hill because there is no permit to park there, then I just ride my bike to and from my car when I need it. I was riding my bike back to my house today with a bag filled with crap, just riding along, when some big buff dude on a mountain bike rode up next to me and gave me a dirty look. I gave a friendly biker smile and dude starts trying to race me into downtown. Are you serious I ask myself. If you know me well enough then you know I can get a little out of control and reckless when biking and there is no way I will let someone pass me, especially on a mountain bike, that just ain't going to happen. So I rode slowly for a couple blocks to amuse him and I even let him get in front of me for a block because he was putting in so much effort(he had clip-ins so he had a shot). Then I decided that was enough and passed him at Howard, then looked back at Mission an dude was pounding on his handle bars and swearing. So the moral is, if your on a mountain bike, don't try to show me up on the street, that just wont happen. I'm kind of a snob. Especially on my Bob

Triforfun

My first triathlon was awesome. It wasn't a real full triathlon but it was still pretty challenging. 400 meters swimming, 11 miles biking, 3.1 miles running and I finished in 1 hour and 4 minutes. I hope to do more in the future because it felt so damn good.

25

Happy Birthday to me. 25, who cares? alright, I do maybe a little. I'm still "hecka strong," as you can see. Its going to be a normal day for me with work and all. I'll be doing a triathlon on Saturday with my sister and then riding up Diablo on Sunday. should be fun and tiring.

shaar

Went up to Fair Oaks this weekend to hang out with Steve, Susie, and Alicia as kind of a joint birth"fun"day. It was a lot of fun. went kayaking, because they were out of canoes. Did a bunch of swimming and just hung out. Went out to dinner and drove back. Thanks for a good time everyone. Heres me and Steve enjoying each others company.

My Bad

I guess I've been a flake with my blog, but it's not really my fault. I almost got taken out by some random waves and broke my camera in the process. Who likes to read a blog that doesn't have any pictures? I got a new camera, so maybe I'll get up to speed. I've been working, I rode my bike to Santa Cruz from the city and other places, I hiked Half Dome, and went to Montana to see my bro and go to the Goat FEaST. Here's a pic of me shooting guns and drinking a Bud in "Man"tana. Good times.

guess i should pay more attention, my damn tube is popping through my tire. i was just going to go ride my bike.

dad

I deleted dads phone number from my phone tonight. It was a very hard thing to do, but I knew it was going to happen eventually. It might seem weird that I've called his phone at least twice a month since but it made me feel like I was making a effort to stay in touch. The number was always out of service until tonight when it went to someones voice mail. I feel bad doing this, but I made a spoke card from my favorite picture of him and me and now he's with me every day when i ride my bike and that makes me happy.
