Just like running a marathon, writing a novel takes discipline. I can speak from experience on both. I do both in a mediocre fashion. The question is, are you fit enough to do it? Can you write 1666 words per day to total 50,000 words? I think I can do it! I [...] My first foray into bicycle racing left me on my knees begging for mercy.

Rob Chamberlain, Jason Roon and I are tentatively discussing the Oct 22, or the Nov 2nd cross race up in GR. With that in mind I pedalled out to Kleinstock to [...] Rarely in life do you get what you pay for. I got a super deal on a brooks tuiliq. Went out yesterday on Lake Michigan. Beautiful calm day.
