Posted on 2016/12/012017/01/01

At the beginning of 2016, I set out to read 52 books by the end of the year. It was a slow winter for me, so nearly half those books were read in just a few months. As summer rolled in, my reading slowed down. But as we found ourselves rained-in while bike touring the…

A weekend in Arcata

Posted on 2016/04/202021/02/08

Many weeks ago, Audrey asked “Should I do this?” Next thing I know, we’re driving 7+ hours to Aracata, California so that Audrey could attend Godwit Days.

Posted on 2015/11/082016/02/03

I just started riding a Santa Cruz Chameleon hard-tail as my trail bike. Bolted out of work a bit early on a glorious Friday afternoon to enjoy the trail before the rains dampened the weekend. I recorded bits of my ride using just my iPhone6, a Bluetooth Wireless Remote Control, and a small tripod. Although…
