Been riding in the rain lately? It seems like every year at least a couple of times I end up riding either at an endurance ride or a conditioning ride in wet weather. Over time our rain gear becomes less waterproof, and it’s never fun to find out during the middle of a ride that [...]
We thought we had the problem solved. Bo likes playing with the stall matts in the barn. Before that he thought pulling the fence apart was fun, but hooking the hot-wire back up solved that problem. These photos show what I found this morning. Most mornings the stall matts might be moved a little bit, [...]
Today was a busy day. It started with an appointment to the chiropractor. I should have gone sooner – turns out that I had a rib out of place and that is what was causing the severe pain in my upper back. What a relief! Obviously that happened when I had my unscheduled not so [...]
These are great for endurance rides (or camping) when it’s cold and/or you don’t want to have to cook!

There is a new security threat that Microsoft considers serious enough to do an update for in between the regular monthly updates.
Excerpt:
With little warning, Microsoft released yesterday an unscheduled or “out-of-cycle” patch for a highly critical vulnerability that affects all versions of Windows. Security bulletin MS08-067 (patch 958644) was posted to warn of a remote-code [...]
I wrote this article for Endurance News a few years ago. It may be a little dated but still has some useful information in it. It was copied out of a word document, so some of the formatting may display oddly depending upon what browser and OS you are using. There are a couple of [...]
Or maybe it is funny, this look of deer in the headlights look that I have after riding 50 miles last Sunday. Eeeeeeek—just WHO is that person staring back at me in the mirror???? I feel kind of like a snail that got ran over by the bus. So much for bouncing back – I [...]
