Cottonwood Valley Trails ~ Red Rock Canyon ~ Five old friends ventured out of the bright lights and big city of Las Vegas to enjoy some trail riding for the afternoon. Bike Blast Las Vegas took care of all our cycling needs right from pick up at the hotel to drop off at the end…

Signs of a good time in Sin City. Execess upon excesses. They’ll take your money; they always do in the end. The signs are there but we never learn.

With this bicycle, you don’t need to pack food in your pockets for long rides. Just eat the bike and run home. Hmm, maybe a new form of triathlon?

Rae Bakes Em. I Eat Em. ~ A good long run around town works up a great appetite! Rachel’s Montreal style bagels fill the bottomless pit. What a talented daughter. It was serendipitous running into my little sister, Sylvia, at Heritage Park! Good company for half an hour as I ran her home. I explored…

A sudden blast of winter last night left in its wake a blustery deep freeze and some sunny winter vistas on my walk to work this morning. It feels like winter is no longer just around the corner, even though it is.

humansofnewyork: “It was a tsunami. In April of ’82 there was an article in the New York Times about a new gay cancer, and everyone thought ‘oh well.’ I was in my twenties. I wasn’t worried about a thing. But then every week you started to hear about somebody becoming ill. My boss was one…

Junetoberfest! Global Warming at its best. A fabulous ride to Orillia for coffee and a dip in the Bay at Centennial Beach after the ride. Feeling very fortunate to live where we do! However, they removed my private dock from South Shore 😦

Florida Snowmobile or Italian Stallion? Both of these were parked near the office and caught my eye but it’s no contest, really.

The Allandale GO train station tunnel offers me a short four minute route from home to the Kempenfelt lakefront park. Interesting dusk looking west down Lakeshore Drive. The bike path provides an easy passage around the Bay to downtown as I enjoy the reflections on the placid waters.

Likely the last Rip ‘n’ Dip of the season. Thankful for having good weather and plenty of fuel on this weekend of Thanksgiving. And good health to enjoy it fully and completely. Wishing you all the same!

It’s tought saying goodbye to little companions like Bella. She became part of the family after eight years. It’s remarkable the connection that develops when we spend each day together for years on end. We add a lot to each other’s lives just by simply being together and caring for each other. Man’s best friend.…

The most efficient and environmentally sound wat to eat ice cream is directly from the original packaging that is promptly recycled upon completion. True fact. Yummy fact.

Too bad. Such a great creative artist. So many good songs it’s hard to pick a favourite. I pick this one because not only do I love the music but the video is really good, too. Sixty-six ain’t that old. RIP Tom. You won’t come around here no more.. 😦

A few bonus shots of the whole gang and some pretty surroundings courtesy of Tina, Tom’s partner who cheered us on for the last stretch. Thanks for sharing, Tina!

Algonquin Gate to Gate to Gate. Blue skies, little wind and strong riders as good company. A nice way to see the Park. What an incredible resource. Our tax dollar hard at work. Only thing that could’ve made it better was if we’d have done it on a week day with much less traffic. Almost…

*** Putting our Money where our Mouth is *** It’s staggering to think there are over 730 million undernourished people in the world while at the same time there are more than double that number of people overweight. Balanced food distribution in the issue, not food shortage. I wonder if the $600M spent *just today*…

Some Like it Hot! What a way to end September! A fast rip up the North Shore to Carthew Bay and back with a speedy group. A dip in Kempenfelt Bay at South Shore dock was the crowning glory to a perfect Sunday morning! I’ll take this heat ANYTIME…

A good ending to a work week of exceptionally long stretches of ass-sitting as we chose to drive to a meeting in Pittsburgh instead of flying. The drive offered good company, spectacular views in sunny and dry conditions with some good laughs along the way. However, I have trouble sitting still for so long… A…

The view West just after sunset at the corner of Tiffin and Lakeshore while biking home from Johnson’s Beach. A serendipitous snap with a sweat-fogged phone camera produced an unusually interesting photograph. Completely unrelated… look at the size of this intersection; no wonder so many pedestrians nearly get hit by cars while crossing here. Some…

Robbie probably did a variety of magical mind altering drugs back in the 60s and 70s that maybe left him a little messed up, not sure. I’ll know better when I actually read the book. The headphones are exactly where I dropped them on my night table at 3am, in the dark. I’m not shitting…

Nick is twenty-three today. I don’t feel old enough to have a 23 year old son, however… We enjoyed a paddle on Willow Creek in the beautiful September sunshine. A very nice change of pace from endlessly two-wheeling around the countryside in circles. We saw a painted turtle, three majestic blue herons and several fish.…

This makes me feel like a powerful dude more than riding through the countryside wearing a Lycra suit. But I still prefer riding… that said, this wood splitting session was a really serious workout! Makes me appreciate how the early settlers had to do it before steam powered machines lightened the load. Somehow, the tired…
