  1. There is a chance I over did it with the ban hammer.  If you are a real human and want to use the site let me know via the contact feature at the bottom of the site.  Tell some basic info that proves you are not a spammer and what the user ID you registered with.

  2. As one motivation to get back on my bike, but also to support a local and amazing cause, I'm riding in the Fred Hutch Obliteride this August doing the 100 mile ride.  Consider supporting my ride if you can and want to:



    I want to share some good news with you. At Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, more than 5,700 clinicians, researchers, and staff are working together to improve cancer prevention, detection, and treatment that improves and saves lives. Thanks to research like this, there are already cures for some cancers — but Fred Hutch will continue this work until there are treatments and cures for EVERYONE who needs them. That’s where you come in! Please take action by donating to my Fred Hutch Obliteride fundraiser right now. Every dollar you give will go right to work at Fred Hutch.

    Fred Hutch helped my neighbor and a close friend become cancer survivors, it is amazing how far some treatments have come.  But there is still a lot to be done.  
    Thank you.

  3. I know a number of you are having trouble with this, and I'm here to help.

    1. Login using your user name is no longer supported.  The forum maker is removing this and the reasoning is because its published all over the forum so then the "bad guys" just need to guess your password.  So you have to logon with you email you used to register.

    2. Which brings me to the biggest problem:  many of you no longer use the email you used to register with.  Switched from hotmail to gmail for example.

    So if this is you, I can help.  Reach out to me via the contact form at the bottom of the page.

  4. easiest way to get one right now is come get one from me in West Seattle.  otherwise come to the next pubclub, or if up North @JasonG should have a few right now.

     

    sorry, as mentioned elsewhere I'm out of commission with a broken clavicle and ribs...so I'm not doing much for a little bit.

    Well, glad you are able to get into surgery this week.  I had to wait 11 days with my very angry and displaced thumb (there's a shortage of good hand surgeons locally).   I sometimes wonder if that is why it still isn't right. 

    I'm sure it will be a lot better after surgery!  For me it was a night and day difference once it was back in the right spot.

    Damn that would suck!  Yes I think being pinned up will be much better, right now feels like I have unsupported live meat hanging on my right shoulder with shards of broken bone.

    @olyclimber HEY we were both bikin' around Goldendale on Sunday! I was just looking through the pics and I was like HEY that guy looks familiar and looked you up on the time score list. DNF! What happened? :(

    It was my first ever timed bike "race" (we did it non-competitively), had a really fun time. #68 out of 87 finishers on an 89-mile course with no training, no long rides in the couple months beforehand, and having fun the whole way -- success!

  7. I have some hardware in my right leg very similar to the image above.  I thought my dancing days were over, and there was some soreness even a couple years later.  but now its just who I am and I don't notice it.  admittedly I'm not rock climbing much these days, but I get out plenty doing alpine scrambles and of course riding my bike 200 miles a week.   I tend not to run as much as I used to, but that is mainly because I don't want to be constantly pounding my knees.  I did go for a run and did a test 12K off the couch last week and because of my bike fitness I was able to run the whole thing at ~10:30 a mile pace, pretty good for off the couch for me with no walking.  

    So good days ahead for all of ya!

  8. Unfortunately can't make it down to PDX this month...so a Seattle Pubclub it is.   Any objections to the above Beer Garden next Wednesday?  Or if you have a better place in mind speak up.    I have stickers to hand out, lets get these on some bumpers and laptops and other places to let people know:
