A doctor on his morning walk noticed an old lady sitting on her front step smoking a cigar so he walked up to her and said, “I couldn’t help but notice how happy you look! What [...]

I want to be this man.

FOTP

Yes, dear piggies, the Flight Of The Pigs is well underway. Looks like a damn good time out there on two wheels.

That would be, from left to right, the gnome, the sauce, and Dr. Jon. Good on ya boys, give ‘em hell. Me? I’ll be putting my girls down for their [...]

Class move on Thanksgiving at a bar

Seems not everyone out there spent Thanksgiving at home with the family last night. Some folks went out and went big.

A friend snapped this photo in the ladies room last night and I thought you might find it funny. Apparently this girl was well hydrated.

Good times.

Good time, indeed.
And here [...]

Today I am thankful for…

Family, friends, big platters of food, twenty nine inch wheels and clean chamois. What are you thankful for?

If I can just get over this pre-turkey day hump…

Oh hell.
The Douchebag Anthem

Now that I’ve seen that video, one think is clear: I’ve gotta get some new clothes. Look at what I’m bringing to the table. Shit, am I old or what? And who in the hell takes a photo of his fucking shoe on the dashboard of his car? [...]

Biker Down

Keep it safe out there.

Happy Monday

Jonny,
I’m running a contest on my blog that I would love to open up to DC’s erudite clan.
The prize is the latest Doonesbury book, “Tee Time in Berzerkistan.”
Here’s the link; deadline is Friday. The pic is me kissing Sarah Palin.

Well boys, have at it.

Don’t save us from the flames…

There are times I feel like dressing up as a ghost and riding my bike through the cool night air where I am free from the bonds of this life and I can be with the one I love the most. Ok, that really isn’t true. But it is, without doubt, a great [...]

One I like

I’ve been hammering myself over the head with outlines for days on end. Nothing quite like the brutal efficiency of class ranking to get boots on the ground. I spend so much time in this library that I feel as though I own the place. At least a square foot of it. [...]

Pop a round at a cyclist, get four months.

Erick R. dropped me an email about this one this morning. He’s got a post up over at Tuscon Bike Lawyer. Just makes you glad to be alive, don’t it?
A former Asheville firefighter will spend 120 days in jail for shooting at a bicyclist, narrowly missing his head with a bullet that pierced [...]

Why so serious?

I walked by my daughter this morning as she was drawing away at her table, and I looked down. Wow. This is what she had came up with. I thought she might start writing socialism across the big white space at the bottom of the page. But then I remembered she [...]

Masters. Now with more Dope. Part two.

To my friends, clients, competitors and USA Cycling officials,
My name is Kenny Williams and I’ve been racing my bike for 20 years. In June 2009 I broke and had surgery on my left collarbone. In my haste to return to the top of my game I purchased DHEA at the local Drug Store, [...]

11:15 pm the night before a bike race . . .

. . . shotgunning beers just seemed like the right thing to do.

Back at the pub.

Sitting in a pub in Manchester, England and here a few of the sights.

Here is the pub mascot, Rocky.

Happy Friday.

I have at times had dreams of football.

Another one in from our man Senna. He writes, I post, you read. We all win.

I’m watching out of my window. I’ve never noticed before the ravens and their behavior, but today I’m seeing what they are doing. There is a gang of about 6 of them flying about the tops [...]

It is always the cyclist’s fault.

Chris Woodyard is not getting a Christmas card from my family this year.
[A] driver on the way to work struck a St. Mary’s County, Md., bicyclist earlier this month and killed him. . . The driver, a 20-year-old in her Honda Accord, told police she never saw the biker. But the accident might have been [...]

Cue up the Link Dump and break out the Good Whiskey

Another Sunday in the library. With a cold. And a bad attitude. Hopefully someone out there is riding a bicycle today. For I certainly am not.
When I go home, It’ll be tea and whiskey on the couch. Yes, I have caught the dreaded cold. It is, after all, the [...]

A blue bike and a thumbtack

The thumb tack was pushed into her front tire, the tire and bike were both blue, it was a lady’s frame. Her tire was flat. We were in the fourth grade. I never knew who pushed in that thumbtack, only that it had not been me. For reasons I didn’t understand [...]
