  • new bike!

    I bought a bike today! I’d been thinking of buying a new bike since last summer, because my road bike (Giant Peloton 8200) and Candice‘s hybrid (Trek 7100) weren’t really so great for riding together — I couldn’t go on gravel paths and found it uncomfortable to keep my speed down, and Look pedals don’t […]

  • Evil turtle

    According to this CNN article this turtle has the image of Satan on his shell: but I think someone’s a bit confused, because it’s clear to me what’s on that turtle shell: Yoshi! Of course, there’s the possibility that we’re both right…
