I'd love to be able to say I put more miles on my bike than car, but I have to include touring miles to do so: seems like cheating on that one. And I'm not good at record keeping :). Goals to accomplish: 1. Pass my next stress echo (blew off the doc until I return from Vietnam) 2. Ride from Pamplona to Santiago de Compestella, Spain (tour in the advanced planning stages) 3. Build a rear wheel for the Guerciotti I've been resurrecting......forever. 4. Post pics on cyclofiend's site. 5. Drag my touring buds off the pavement & into S24Os.
