We got an unsolicited email from Mr. Tom Zirbel recently regarding recent post of ours. The title alone is enough to tell you the direction it took, the author called it: Another one eats it. The tone was tough as we don’t often pull our punches.

Hey man,
I’ve been getting [...]

Subject: Storm Damage
With all the news lately about the subzero weather and snow that the midwest and east coast areas are experiencing, we shouldn’t forget that Southern California has its share of devastating weather also.
Attached is a photo illustrating the excessive damage caused to a home from a west coast storm that [...]

And we ain’t talking ’bout no Tucson Gray Wolf here, pardner. Rather, this is the Wolf.

I can read not word one of the article linked in that email. Presumably it mentions exactly what our dear Mr. Wolf won that day. I believe it was [...]

I missed actually watching this program because 1) I pretty much can’t think of any reason to watch Larry King Live, and 2) I have no life. Now that we’ve cleared that up…
Landis appeared on CNN’s Larry King Live television show on Thursday night for an interview after the French justice system [...]

Our boy Legs sent this one in from, you guessed it, California. He has a good life.

This one in from our boy 40 Hands.
Here we go, I’m gonna make my best attempt at giving you full and complete report about the entity that was SSAZ/SSUSA. Let me start off by giving a big thanks to Mr. Dejay Birtch for putting everything together. For me it all started the [...]

Just about everyone I know went out and rode bikes this weekend. Me? I rode the pine.

Deadmau5. Dead Mouse. Just spelled different. Something about running out of characters for a login. Good save. Aside from that useless tidbit, what I know about this kid would fit on one [...]

Photo is of yours truly at the 2004 24 Hours in the Old Pueblo. I raced solo-single speed that year. I got sixth. Someone handed me a glass of draft beer immediately upon crossing the finish line. It just felt right.
Seems like a lifetime ago.
That was me on form. [...]

Blowing up the spot. Our own Mr. Mason made the evening news. Advocacy. It just feels good.

I’m not sure who took this photo, or where and when they took it. Or, for that matter, why they took it. Was it to memorialize something? A place in time? A road trip with friends? A crappy little exit somewhere off some soulless interstate highway?
Could be Arizona. [...]

Not enough has been said about this day. This was the Big Time. You think you know hard? You don’t know hard.
This is the day Andy Hampsten became a hero. The only American to win the Giro d’Italia. Ever.
Andy began the day in the blue “overall points” [...]

I was digging in the crates (anything over school work, go figure) and came up with these two fine wallpaper images from days of yore. Thank you Snake Hawk. You are both a gentleman and a scholar. Click through to download large image.

What’d ya’ll think about DC wallpaper images? Funny? [...]

Nice to see a Surly putting in work.

Yes, ladies and gentleman, that would be three (3) days of riding. In a row, no less.

Again I pushed back the lonely march through case law for a chance to get outside and, well, exercise a bit. All this desk work is fucking killing me. It is absolutely brutal.

Went with some Clif drink mix today over plain water. Seems I need calories. With this ass? [...]

I said one thing to myself this morning: The books can wait.

And you know what? They did. The bastards did.
They’re like rust – they never sleep. Always out there. Getting stronger…

I posted a video yesterday of Jan Ullrich opening up a can of whoop ass in the 2004 Tour de France. Later that night at home, as I was making dinner and throwing crackers at the little ones, my wife was going through the mail box offerings.
She got a post card from our man [...]

I think this is from 2004, when Thomas Voeckler held the maillot jaune for ten days like a fucking champ. No idea what stage this is, only that it goes uphill. Ullrich is looking to claw back time on Armstrong. Don’t think he won the stage – I don’t think Ullrich [...]
