Like a Boomerang 1 Apr 2013 | 02:22 pm

Georgia Peach Fuzz: The Cal Giant U23 Squad Goes to Nationals (As Do I). 22 Jun 2012 | 12:45 pm

Cal Aggie Crit: Not Even Max Jenkins Pro Bike Racer Could Make a Break Stick 2 Feb 2012 | 12:55 am
Lately, I’ve been doing a lot of writing about science. This is an excellent thing for my real, scientific career, of course. However, readers who have been with me for the duration of this blog’s exi...
Get At Me, Racing Season! 17 Jan 2012 | 09:46 pm
With the 2012 road racing season just around the tight, technical, hairpin corner, I’m striving to be more well connected to y’all readers this year; to that end, I encourage you to introduce yourself...
An Off-season Update (AKA, Chris Stastny Wins 2012 Mt. San Bruno Hillclimb) 31 Dec 2011 | 10:33 am
What does a guy like me — a guy who trains idiotically and infrequently, who thinks criteriums are “real bike races,” and who drinks beer and eats cheese for a pre-race meal during the racing season —...
Merry Christmas! 26 Dec 2011 | 02:40 pm
For anyone who reads this blog and understands why it’s here, this photograph needs no explanation. True happiness oughtn’t need explanation, of course. Merry Christmas everyone! Here’s to hoping you...
