11 days of Virginia

Here I am in Ashburn, Virginia. I’ve been here for eleven days now, since May 17, for work. If all goes to plan, I should be flying back in eight more days. It’s been a hard week, with some very long exhausting hours. I finally caught up on my sleep over the past couple of […]

I hate iTerm

iTerm sucks. I’ve had it with it, I’ve switched back to Terminal.app. I think the whole reason I switched to begin with was because iTerm did transparency support. I spend all my time with my head buried in terminal windows and it’s handy to see what’s behind the window. Terminal.app has since added that feature. […]

Today was the Armadillo Hill Country classic. This was by far the hardest ride I’ve ever done. Being in Hill Country, it was 107 miles of rolling hills. The wind kept shifting all day, essentially we were in a headwind on every leg of the route which took a lot out of me. While I […]

Horribly Hilly Hundreds

I snagged this off of Chris’ site, Horribly Hilly Hundreds. 200 kilometers (124 miles) of hellish hills, totalling around 10,000 feet of ascension. Totally sick, I love it. I might just have to box up my bike and travel up north for this sucker. I suspect this would be way worse than doing the Mansfield […]
