    Hi Silver! I obviously haven't been around long enough to get to know you, but I remember you offering to hem jerseys for someone. (Was it Selkie? Funny, the things you remember...) Welcome back!
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    welcome back!

    Lessee .... I moved to Edmonton for a couple of years and now am trying to move back to Seattle. Having trouble making it stick but here's hoping.

    Did 2 metric centuries for a weekend fundraiser last year but otherwise I found Edmonton to be terrifying for road bikes, so I am now trying to shed some weight!

    These telegraphic updates are a hoot, you guys. Keep 'em coming!

    m'kay ...

    I did half of the Death Ride last summer (I quit while it was still sort of fun).

    I won second place in the Aquaphor Map My Ride Le Tour challenge last year, so last fall DH and I went on a dee-luxe Trek Travel wine country tour. It was awesome.

    A few weeks before that wine country tour, I lost my job, which at the time was pretty traumatic. I was ready to dump my profession in the trash barrel and find something else to do (heh, I was brushing up on my "would you like fries with that?"), but right before Christmas I had lunch with a couple of co-workers from a job many moons ago, and they both offered me contract work at their new workplaces. So now I'm an independent contractor, and I enjoy it immensely. Living well really is the best revenge.

    I haven't been riding very much this year, but I'm starting to get back into it.
