Greyhamer's innuendo skills are not to be trifled with.

Tomorrow starts fencing and we have a personal link to many coaches and fencers. Our friend and Lance's former coach is there with the Hong Kong team and another friend is the Italian team coach. We know a few Olympians from Italy, France Hungary and Hong Kong and will be cheering them on. In the olden days, the coaches had been over for BBQs and to polish off a few cases of our wine while the fencers seemed to enjoy the tri tip and 11-hour braised short rib tacos. Great memories...

Yeah, me too, even when I was training for triathlons. Impressive stats!

Nothing more disturbing than sitting in one's back yard sipping a nice Grand Cru, enjoying the scenery then having an intruder slither uncomfortably close by. It kind of ruins the vibe... I hope this does the trick tomorrow.

Happy Birthday, Jose!

I did a couple of mountain bike rides north of Phoenix in July back in the day. It was so hot even the coyotes just watched and laughed at our hubris.

Toast them I will...
