So, what did you do today?

[Adam Ginsberg]

Adam, thats awesome, How is your son doing with my old Kenny Brown Mustang? That car was so nice, I would love to buy it back from you.

It's actually doing well, Chris. My oldest bought it from Seth a few years ago, and has slowly been fixing it up....he just installed new seats 3 weeks ago. We now have all the parts in my garage to convert it back to a stick; we've just been waiting for a break in my schedule to reconfigure the car (I thought you'd like to hear about that ). It still needs bodywork and paint from the accident, but it's running around town.

Mike P - the "next chapter" started over a year ago.....Nick Steel got me chasing down this rabbit hole.....



IMO, it's every bit as challenging, rewarding, and difficult as sports car racing, but at a much reduced cost (although my wife sometimes thinks otherwise, until I show her some receipts). It's a fantastic sport, and very addictive. I'm now riding anywhere from 100 - 200+mi a week when not traveling. I bought that Diamondback in August 2012, and it now has just under 3500mi on it.

While in Sydney for business in January, I was fortunate to ride in the beautiful Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park. Great riding, but it thoroughly kicked my ass.



I've dropped 25lbs, my blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and resting heart rate to much more appropriate levels. It's great enjoyment to ride for miles along the ocean in such outstanding weather. I'm even considering a few cycle races, although I have much further to go before ready to try that.

Several AI and CMC racers have turned to cycling to help satiate their "need for speed" - Nick Steel, Matt Renna, Ryan Walton (he is one hell of a climbing mofo!!!), Matt King and our own Richard Pedersen to name a few. Nick, Ryan and I are planning to ride the Cool Breeze Century in mid-August.....a 100mi ride from Ventura (it starts about 5mi from my house) to Goleta and back. It will be a great ride, with much of it along the Pacific.
