The lemming's only illness is being lazy.  Ever since the lemming went on a self-proclaimed hibernation and then just kind of abandoned his blog, things have been quiet over here. Every once in awhile though things will get the lemming riled up and thoughts of writing a new blog will cross his mind ... Take, for instance, the other day when the lemming rode in to work, went to use the shower, and a whistle eminated from the locker room toilet stall. Apparently there is an unwritten closet

As I finish up in the Chi-town office and ready for a trip back north I cant help thinking how much I dislike it here ... Maybe its just this particular trip cuz its been pretty hot out. Too hot to ride. Not that I had the time. These quick two day overnite stays just do not leave enough time to plan a ride. I'll try it  a few more times before I decide to pull the plug on these trips ... So the cross bike did not move out of the car ... The traffic around the office here is unbearable for a

It probably goes without saying that the best environment to view these bicycles is their natural state. The state that finds them on open roads or muddy cyclocross courses. That finds the Jones bikes ripping through the Oregon forests doing endo’s for only the trees to see. Cruising along a boulevard with a bottle of wine strapped into the basket up front, these are the places that bicycles should be viewed ...

Heroic escape by the Jailer ... Christian Seznec goes solo for 200kms ... Twenty-three year old Bernard Hinault had his mojo going. He was already a classics star winning the 1977 Liege-Bastogne-Liege & Ghent Wevelgem. He proved to be a top time triallist by winning the Grand Prix des Nations. The Criterium du Dauphine Libere was a mountainous one where he crashed on a descent and climbed out from the roadside back on his bike for the victory. Tough as nails. Two months before the 1978 Tour he
