So you may have noticed that I haven’t posted here in awhile. True. I’ve been busy. Very busy. Work keeps me occupied during the day, and the last couple of weeks, I’ve been scrambling around like mad with the bike biz, and a few other things, so the blog has kind of taken a back [...]
So busy I can barely see straight right now. Quick update: 1. Went to Matt and Jenni’s wedding and it was a blast. 2. TONS of stuff to do for Minnecycle. 3. The stitches are healing up nicely. 4. Pissed at the Vikings. P.S. A happy birthday to my wife, Kate! She is awesome!
No time for the written word this week. Too busy. Leave comments/questions and I’ll try to get to them tonight.
Going to be a busy one. I’ve got two books I’m reading — Vinge’s A Fire Upon the Deep, and Dubner/Levitt’s SuperFreakonomics. But my main focus, as you’d guess, is bikes. I need to drop Paul’s frame at Chris Kvale’s for paint. And I need to finish up the fillets on Justin’s and get his [...]

A blanchard-ground plate and a bottom bracket post. (Framebuilding tools.) Portal 2. I’ve never played Portal, but it looks like a lot of fun. A new Macbook Pro. An iPhone 5. A house. More time.
So last year, Kate and I decided that I would be building my brother a frame, and I’ve been plugging away at it. It’s a lugged Platinum OX road frame, and when it’s done, it’s going to be the best I’ve done (so far). I think it’s the one where I’ve learned the most, too [...]
• We’re a little more than halfway through March and I’ve been updating my 101 Things in 1001 Days entry for the month. Two items I’ve checked off turned out to take much longer than I anticipated (I’ve been at them both for months) — one turned out to be pretty worthwhile, and the other [...]
As I’m sure a small contingent of you may have noticed, this site (and my others) have been throwing Type 500 errors and not giving you any love lately. As it would turn out, I got PWNED, and hard, through an installation of Mediawiki, which I was using to run Bike612. It would appear that [...]
