Art Show at Orchard

Tim Kerr had some paintings and was at the opening of the Supply and Demand art show at Orchard. Tim is a huge inspiration to me and has been for a long time. Here are a couple photos from the event.

Hell Week Part One

So the more pious among us call it Holy week, but the amount of sleep I've missed and the amount of things I've broken, make me think Hell Week is more appropriate.
Kind of running out of words so here is the first half of the week based on the photos from my phone....


Gloucester. When I think of Gloucester, I think of this. I love this race, but it kicks my ass every year. This year they went out of their way not to add fuel to the "grass crit" fire. Tweets about "hope you've been running", turned out to be warranted.
Had to have space for the double wide

We arrived to drizzle and wet mud.

We raced in setting, thick mud.

Then I balled out.

Despite an extra beach run and stone stairway to heaven run up, Day 2 felt a little easier to me. Despite the results, I was happy with how I raced.
Mike got married. That is rad



Next up was the Night Weasel, but before that, why not a party? Off to the RSC for a number pick up party. Free beer, a raffle, and a chance to see Mo's new bike? I am in.

It's pretty much hard times all the time. Jobs, Weather, Health. There are always issues and it is easy to lose perspective on how hard you have it. It is easy to forget how good you do have it. These 2 articles really made me stop for a second and reflect on how I would handle what had been thrown at these 2 men.

Tommy Guerroro Apprecitation

This remains one of my favorite video parts. 1985? Seems like just yesterday. I even remember walking by the curb he hits at 2:00 in and bugging out when I realized why it was so familiar.


Here is a clip of TG. Still at it. Still an inspirational dude.

And never mind how TG paved the way for dudes like Chris Senn who is reponsible for another of my favorite SF parts

Steve Marriott was pretty fucking cool

this is what happens when you switch up from speed to weed....
