Yesterday marked my long ride ever, coming in at approximately 139 miles as a part of the Rapha Gentlemen’s Race. We headed out to the beach (Lincoln City) on Friday evening and stayed in a suite at the Inn at Spanish Head thanks to team president Jim who served as sugar daddy for the evening. [...]
Hanging with the Cyclers
I laughed when I saw this ad on Facebook today:
Cyclers, huh? You’d do well with your spammy ads if you actually took the time to learn the terminology.
I’ve spent lots of time recently hanging out with “cyclers” who also happen to be good friends. On Sunday I went to spectate and photograph the Vancouver Courthouse Criterium, which resulted in some good photos in harsh lighting conditions.
This was also handy, since I’m working on Chris Swan’s website – I’ve got many more pictures to work with now. Oh, and it’s his birthday today. Happy birthday Chris!
Chris and Karey stayed in town a night longer, so last night we also went to Hot Lips Pizza in the Pearl. Good stuff.
If you want to see more of the photos, there’s some up on Flickr, and the full set is on Facebook.
Finally, I was sad to see Jens Voigt crash out of the tour today – but I can’t believe he’s only got a broken cheekbone and stiches after his horrific crash that came out of nowhere. The video is pretty painful to watch.
