IT'S THE CLIMB

I think it was Woody Allen who said, "If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans." Well I must have sent him into hysterics earlier this year when I planned a bike trip across the US. As we all know I was forced to return home roughly halfway through the journey and going back this year to finish was not a responsible option for me. Nuff said. 

On a scarier note, this means I may blow the carbon off the former bloviating balcony blog when the feeling strikes and thrust my verbosity at you like an angry gorilla with a handful of yesterday's meal!
The only diference now will be the lack of posting announcments when a new piece is available. Save the site to your favorites, have Google send you an alert or develop your own system, but after this announcement.....its all you!



********** This Sunday, Sept 21 I will enbark on a short(7-8 day) bike ride along the Northern California Coast. I will leave from Ashland Oregon after watching my son play football. I will not blog during this 600 mile trip; however, I have created a "Track my Tour" account just like the one you viewed during the Trans Am trip called  "Roller Coastal Tour." I'll throw out some waypoint breadcrumbs as I go in case anybody cares! The first entry will be this Saturday. I will finish the ride back here in Folsom after no later then 8 days because I have to take the garbage out.

Thanks to all who reached out during this crazy summer. I did not respond to everyone who sent their thoughts and considerations and for that I am truly sorry but know that your words were greatly appreciated.
