Once again, it’s that time of year … time to sit back and reflect on all that I am thankful for. I continue to rediscover my love for the bicycle, even though my lungs continue to rebel … and I’m looking forward to my “training camp” in Arizona. I still have a good job, which [...] You know something isn’t right when you start to dread something you’ve been looking forward to for 9 months. I’m beginning think I may need different meds, because I haven’t been this down since I got divorced. Lost in the Troy Davis news debacle tonight was the fact that another man was executed in Texas tonight. Lawrence Russell Brewer, one of three men convicted for the brutal murder of James Byrd, Jr., by dragging him for about 3 miles, including a mile or so after Byrd was decapitated when hit a culvert.

I think that if there is a Supreme Being, it’s going to protect people against things beyond their control, but is not going to reward stupidity? God (in whatever form) [...] How many of my readers were aware that cyclists like coffee? This is certainly news to me! Plenty of us need it as a pick-me-up in the morning, but would you have had Britain’s finest track cyclists down as coffee addicts? It turns out the GB team are every bit as keen on the bean [...] It’s a gorgeous spring afternoon … and what am I doing?
