So, Christmas has come and gone in a rather uneventful manner. I suppose that’s a good thing though. Got to talk to the parents, brother and sis on the phone yesterday. They’re all doing the traditional thing. Matt and me? We decided to escape the white Christmas in Albuquerque and become beach bums in Santa [...]

13 months after my periactetabular osteotomy (that’s a hip rebuild in layman’s terms), the screws holding everything together were removed. This is the last stage in that journey, and a new beginning for the way my body works. Essentially, I can do everything I used to do activity-wise, except running. I’m relieved that I had [...]

I rode 125 miles on the road bike at the Grand Tour in Malibu, CA! How about them apples?!? Matt’s shocked that I’m not more excited, but I guess I’m still in a state of shock. My longest ride since the surgery was 40 miles in Durango. I got the ride done in 11 hours, [...]

Kim and I did the Chica ride this evening, and decided to take an alternative from the route we normally take…one that Kim and Randy ride, but that I haven’t ridden in a very long time. We headed down to Spain on the paved Tramway Trail and then rode the dirt up to the Spain [...]

So I made another riding milestone today! It’s the most climbing than I’ve done in a concentrated period of time since the surgery. I took the Giant down to the Casino and climbed back up Tramway, then headed up the 2nd climb to the Tram and around that and headed back to Tramway. My 3rd [...]

Went back to the Foothills again for a ride. Not much around here I can ride right now. Still, had a good time. I decided to attempt the North Foothills again. Last time I did this I walked most of the North side. This time, I took off from the house, starting out on Dan’s [...]

It rained today! Unfortunately not enough to get us the moisture we really need, but I guess every bit counts. I had planned an after work road ride, so despite the wind, I decided to get out and do it. I attempted to head down Tramway Blvd. toward the Casino, but a side wind kept [...]

I took Florida (don’t pronounce it like the state, or you’ll get funny looks from the locals) Road all the way out toward the reservoir, but decided to keep on chugging along toward Bayfield. I wanted to set a new goal–40 miles. I got in 43! I’m paying for it now though. My entire body [...]

As expected, Matt beat the train today. He took off at 8:15 AM from Durango, along with all the other riders in the Iron Horse Bicycle Classic Citizen’s Tour, with the challenge of beating the infamous train into Silverton. 2:56 I believe was his time; the train generally takes 3:30 to get to Silverton, so [...]

Ouch! I can’t believe I’ve done it again. My strength and cardio far outweigh the ability of my hip. Today, after a day’s rest, I was feeling very strong and ready for a hard ride. I was planning on a short one, since I got home late from work, and generally, short rides are fast [...]

Matt’s doing his SFBFL ride today with some friends as I sit down to type this blog. I got us a hotel in Santa Fe near the plaza, the Old Santa Fe Inn. It’s just a couple blocks from where Matt and crew met at the Zele Cafe bright and early this morning at 7:30AM.
I [...]

Well, I managed to take the 3 consecutive rest days in a row. The human body is a strange organism. Before the rest days, I was working out every day and craving more exercise. I did it until the hip couldn’t handle it. After 3 days of rest, my body is tired and I’m lethargic [...]

“I’m coloring the text, just like a karaoke screeen,” says Frank, with a big grin as he edits a script we are going through for an upcoming Asian Pacific American Annual Celebration. I wouldn’t have had a freaking clue what he was talking about had I not heard this ridiculous display of misfits (none Asian, [...]

I guess I should have said something like, Mmmmmmmm Wiiiiiiiiine for my title, since I can’t drink the beer at Il Vicino, my favorite watering hole, but the Homer quote sounds better. I’m allergic to the stuff! Guess it’s some Asian thing. Dr. David (Matt’s double century riding partner from CA) said it’s an Asian [...]
