yesterday and today
the city was especially magical on friday morning. the fog sat at the exactly correct spot. it was epic.
grabbed lunch with will and miranda and enjoyed a nice lunch at pier 14. pretty much my favorite pier.
came back and only had time to get ready for the mountain, did a midnight wax and caught some sleep.
super early today got picked up by sarah jon and bri to head to up to tahoe.
got there at 10ish and boarded until near park closing. kirkwood isnt bad, maybe a few more inches could help. and a warmer temperature later.
so sore afterwards, stopped by sac on the way back to grab dinner
great day today! not too many n's =>
hope i'm not too sore to do my ride tomorrow

wet as hell afterwards:

these 2 are always praying. jk:

omnomnomnom:

2012-01-26T21:53:00.001-08:00

grabbed sushi for lunch with jackie and jonathan cuz jonathan is leaving his muni stuff and moving on to bart. good luck man.
nama sushi is the worse sushi spot i've ever had. i'm convinced now that korean owned sushi resturants should not exist. sushi house, this, all have terrible niches.
but oh well, got my uni fix.
gonna miss working in soma when this project finally gets to end. it's still pretty fun though.
came home and just did another training ride.
finally made it to the first page of KOB over the pedestrian bay farm bridge LOL. did a few personal bests tonight. feels good!

bonked a few times lol, 2500ft elev climbed~ not bad at all~ plus the descend was epic! first time hitting 35mph+ speeds. too bad the roads were wet, the turns were slippery and we couldnt descend faster against traffic
got back to jon's place bonked more than i ever have. feels great. what a great ride
met up with maria, alvin and their bunch and grabbed lunch at boil boil crab, watched the niner game start
grabbed dessert at donut world and cramped up like all over the place lol
