The socializin’ over the weekend exposed me to some type or types of nasty microbes. I am fighting them off, but that puts a crimp in my riding, playing, working, snuggling, … all sorts of things. Sometimes I see value in being a recluse.
As I sit here avoiding social contact due to the nascent cold I have moved my blogroll off to blogrolling.com. A bit of tweaking CSS, PHP, and other stuff to get it right. My apologies if it looks a bit funky as I try to massage it into submission.
I am about to convert my commuter bike to a fixie, or fixie/SS. The Wife is apparently not thrilled with this decision. Me thinks her mental picture of fixie rider is the messenger types she dealt with when she lived in San Francisco. I will convert, to get away from all the maintenance hassles, chain suck, etc. of the derailleured version of the bike, but need to be sensitive to her fears and assure/convince her that fixie != messenger and, more importantly, fixie != death.
Thursday is usually either city commission meeting night or yoga-then-taqueria-with-the-ladies night. Think tonight will be yoga-at-home-then-under-a-warm-blanket night. Time to crack into the extensive collection of yoga DVD’s.

The ladies will miss their yoga buddy tonight
But, I’m sure we’ll catch up on love life gossip and all sorts of stuff you aren’t interested in anyway. So, it will be fine to have a girls’ only yoga night. I hope you’re feeling much better before our weekend adventures!

I’d like to see you on this ‘fixie’ when it’s all said and done. Sounds pretty hard core to me!!

Kim - you can see me ride a fixie at the track
Or you could see me as I cruise through San Mateo in a week or so when the conversion is done.
