Aaron and I went biking in lieu of hiking and took a few photos in the process…

Also had a relaxing, pyrotastic and marhmallowriffic afternoon hanging out with C.C. Chapman, Chris Penn, Chel Pixie, Cass, Kim, and of course Roxie and Abe. And others! It was marvelous, exactly what I needed. Thanks, C.C., for opening your house (and a few beers). I’ve never eaten a bacon blanket before.

I’m spending all day in my recording studio mixing the April live recording for Matthew Ebel dot net. It always gets this way at the end of the month, “crunch time”, but I will deliver what I’ve promised to my fans!

Even if it means no biking today.

Behold, the <A HREF='http://matthewebel.com/category/sponsors/myxer/' TARGET='_top'>Myxercycle</A>

Behold, the Myxercycle

The weather is at that point again where we straddle the line between ski season and bike season. Yesterday it was 60° (15c) in my town, easily warm enough to go for a bike ride. Even with all the skiing I’ve done this winter, I never really realized how much I wanted to just get OUT.

We do tend to trap ourselves, don’t we? We build walls of technology so that we can make ingenious little windows like Facebook and Twitter and look out at the world.

Yesterday I was riding through the world at 25-30mph (40-50 kph) on my electric bike, the Myxercycle. It looked a lot bigger than it has for the past 5 months. Here I am, Monday morning, typing into my little window again, but at least now I know the front door leads to a warmer world again. Forget the economy, things are looking brighter simply because I can bike again.
