For a year now I have been working on a new version ThePlanCollection.com. Last night at 2 am it finally went live. The new site is faster and easier to maintain. There are a few bugs still – I’ll have those fixed shortly. Look for new features and better ways to find house plans in…
Cache Valley Century
I rode the Cache Valley Century today. It was 100 miles of pure fun. My legs didn’t cramp up at the end this time and I met new people and I had a chance to ride with a couple of people from the Space Dynamics Lab. They are always fun to ride with and are…
Lunch Provided by the Farmer’s Market
Every Saturday in Logan and I am sure in towns all across the country there is a small market where locals can sell their wares. We are slow an Saturdays so we rarely make it before the market closes at noon. Today however, we finally made it (11:30). Smaller markets filled with locals are a…
Daily Commute
I rode my mountain bike into work today again. Since riding a mountain bike on the road is like only your SUV to pick up the kids and buy groceries (welcome to America), I needed some time off road with my sexy Blur XC. We went up the River Trail. I love that ride. The…
Returning to my Mistress
I am back. When I say that I mean I am back to my old ways and returning to my mistress of over a year. Cycling punished me with zeal last night, but like a naughty senator I am back an ready for another spanking. As I sit here contemplating the cost of maintaining this…
Fashion can be Funny
I have noticed a lot of women in camouflage pants lately. I think this is the latest fashion or maybe they wear it because they are trying to hide something. My bet is that there is a group of fashion designers somewhere in New York. They get together and have coffee and laugh, A LOT….
Rode Blacksmith Fork Canyon Tonight
I’ve never considered myself an athlete. Athletes have to work hard and suffer and compete and stuff. Although, I will likely never compete, cycling has been the closest I have ever come to being athletic. Its a great sport. If by great you mean that it kills you slowly. Tonight’s ride was to be an…
Sarah Sample
Mendon is a very small town on the west side of Cache Valley, but for three weeks in the summer it is a very cool place to be. This tiny town runs concerts in the park. Sadly I totally forgot about it until I got home last night and my lovely wife reminded me that…
iPhone App
I have an iPhone. It is an awesome little toy. I couldn’t just own one. I need a reason to play with it so I wrote an application. igag.us It lets you gather your favorite news sources – rss/atom under one aggregation. Thus it is easy for me to gather up a number of cycling…
Bored at Church
Yesterday, my daughter, out of the blue, told her sunday school teacher, “I’m so bored I could fall asleep.” We told her that she shouldn’t say things like that to her teachers – she is going to kindergarten in the fall so we need to teach her stuff like that. The irony is she didn’t…
