Hike A Bike Tutorial Video!

400 miles on the commuter since school started, and I haven't driven there yet. Last weekend Fritz and I rode Camp Trail to the Colorado Trail then did a few miles on the ridge up to around 13,000 feet!
Vector Calculus is fun, but it sure is nice to get some fresh air and oxygen once in a while.

Just to prove I do occasionally ride with real live people.

Crazy, I know? Its a good brake from a whole bunch of 3D Calculus, bike commuting on the mean streets of Grand Junction with 18 pounds of books, and tutoring other people in math and physics.
Real people, real dirt, perfect weather, on a flat, Flowy trail.




And, a nice bike shot from Fritz's Dallas Divide hike/ride yesterday, while I was stuck inside sewing and doing Material Science homework.

More Bags

I just finished up another order, for two Niners.


And a customer pic of a Spot with CM frame bag.
To meet the customer's timeline on this one, I got frame dimensions directly from Spot customer service, and they were very helpful, and the guy I was corresponding with has made some frame bags so knew exactly what I was talking about!
Note: Only the frame bag is by me, the seat bag and bar bag are of other origin.


In other nerdy news, I'm playing around with Maxima, a free computer algebra system similar to Maple, and it is slick: 3D plots that can be rotated, symbolic integration, Taylor series calculators, and way way more. Despite my vocal dislike for computers, they sure can be useful.
