zen and synchronously finding a shiny new wrench on the road while contemplating this book:)

okay so i've been thinking of the idea of a bike barometer, well whatever. just saying to anyone who knows what i mean. there is riding with the wind, there is reading against the wind, but then there is those magical low(no?) pressure rides, where basically, you just effin' fly going up, down, or around!

....ah yes and then there is some of the not so little things...
did you know that often the pack and the planning takes a lot more time then the ride does? Don't forget; when you put the pedal to the metal bikes really do fly...however packing the right necessities to be transported when attempting to travel feather light is no small matter! so take heart! the biggest legitimate fear of cycling really is getting out of the house! this brings me to rule number one: whatever you pack on a bike will also fly. That's right, if there is any remote chance of slippage, rattleage, or otherwise dangerous situations waiting to happen; just try securing something to your bicycle improperly. Let me save you some time, money, or pain right now, with the old adage caps locked  here> in bold...MOVE IT OR LOSE IT.
holey font change batman!

shoulder checking

here is a great thing i've learned: shoulder checking to the right...its really simple, but if you ride like a maniac where things happen really quickly on the streets, or even if you don't ride like a maniac, things happen really quickly on the streets so listen up! the right side shoulder check. you've probably heard it said before that your body follows your head. i've noticed every time i do a shoulder check for traffic, as i don't have room, or time, for mirrors, my body naturally floats a bit to the left. Way too many times this has resulted in a horrendous whoosh that just about sends you reeling into the abyss, with  a resonating "YES" a car WAS coming. so basically, perhaps still a dangerous maneuver notwithstanding, the right side shoulder check might seem like a pain in the neck ( haha-ha heehee-hoo!!!!!!!!!!!) but it works just as well, and i don't know about you but i'd rather pick sand , muskrats, or road crew signs out of my teeth than bumpers out of my buttcheeks...(how's my score anyway, should I quit the day job yet?)

time to stretch (your head) as i don't know what this has to do with cycling

people seem to think with technology these days we are so smart. I don't think the ancients were stupid though; in fact, I think that spiritually they were perhaps far more advanced

other than sheer immensity, did you know that Stonhenge is not entirely unique? There are numerous stone circles to be found throughout the country. Imagine the old testament wilderness; there must have been a lot of piled stone scattered throughout the land

and a few great temples

And one lamb out of the flock, out of two hundred, out of the fat pastures of Israel; for a meat offering, and for a burnt offering, and for peace offerings, to make reconciliation for them, saith the Lord GOD.

Aside from the symbolic significance or holiness of making an offering to the Lord, the physical act of building an altar seems unparalleled in anything we do today

it would probably be better if you just used that 9 -letter 'C-word'. Then they could love you or hate you

1Then Moses answered, “But behold, they will not believe me or listen 

to my voice, for they will say, ‘The LORD did not appear to you.’” 2The 

LORD said to him, “What is that in your hand?” He said, “A staff.” 3And 

he said, “Throw it on the ground.” So he threw it on the ground, and it 

became a serpent, and Moses ran from it. 4But the LORD said to Moses, 

“Put out your hand and catch it by the tail”—so he put out his hand and 

caught it, and it became a staff in his hand—

And Moses lifted up his hand and struck the rock with his staff twice, 

and water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their 

livestock.

But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and 

divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through 

the midst of the sea.
