G, it's only eight kilometers each way. In the mornings I don't go quite so hard cuz I'm usually half asleep, but on the way home I hammer it pretty hard. That's where working the frustration out really helps.

It's not everyday I'm working frustration out. I quite like my job and the people with whom I work. There are other, outside forces that I find frustrating (like in-laws ).

The good thing about my inlaws is that they live 1/2 way around the world. I find them far less frustrating that way.

BTW Earl.... if you got it, flaunt it.

Well, here goes.
As a newbie, I kind of feel obliged to post a pic.
There's that, and the fact that I can't miss an opportunity to poke fun at myself, I make such an easy target!
It does deserve at least a half-assed attempt at an explanation.
a) I'm usually behind the camera
b) I hate being in photos (yeah like you can tell)
c) It was a theme party...honest......




oh dear.

Thanks, it was team issue that year. Of course in racing trim there are matching shorts and for crit racing, a skinsuit.

Racing for the guy who imports 'Pirandello' into Canada certainly has/had its advantages. Retail on bike stuff??? What's that?

Hehe, I hadn't even thought of that! except that whenever i kick something it's usually me that breaks....

gforce: i'm 22 at the moment. Guess i'd be on of the younger ones here!
Had a bit of a look at your website, as much as i could manage at work. Very nice & clean (not in that sense) work! I'm guessing you use photoshop a bit? How long on average does it take you to complete, say....one of your pinups?

Thanx, Well the actuall Art is done by my buddie Omega, he can do a Pin-Up in a day, Full color and all, but the comic pages he takes about 2-3 days doing just one. Yea we both use Photoshop alot, prob. the best graphics program there is out there IMO.

Riverside Park, near the 79 Street Boat Basin (which, by the way, is the lowest rental along Manhattan's very expensive West Side).
