T-Shirt comments and laptop Pizza. - 22:27
Mikal told me I should write about this
while we ate pizza tonight. The other week I saw a link on
Metafilter
about (reading the comments
is suggested) a laptop bag/box made from a
pizza box. Apparently the
link hit slashdot also, however I missed that as I have not actively read
slashdot since sometime in 1998.
Also almost amazingly I have yet to write something in my diary about a rather
cool t-shirt Andrew gave me last
week. Today I had 5 people comment on it when they saw me wearing it, maybe I
should photograph it and write something, it is almost to be expected that I
would considering the t-shirt.

Fun morning on the bike - 09:58
The last few weeks not many people have seemed interested in the Thursday
morning mtb ride, so this morning I hopped on the road bike and headed out to
ride with the southside bunch. Leaving home just before 5:30am, I picked up
Bruce (the guy who did all the run legs in my triple tri team the
last two
years, he bought himself
a new road bike recently and is keen to do a bit more riding), we rode out to
Woden along Adelaide Ave, going at a reasonable pace so Bruce sat behind me
all the way. Arrived a bit early (5:52am), sat around chatting with Morgs for a
bit and we all got rolling. Thursday morning in the Canberra Southside bunch
is a recovery/easy pace ride so it was pleasant rolling through Curtin, across
Scrivner, through O'Connor, up Ginnenderra drive into the AIS, back down
Belconnen way and over to Limestone Ave, at this point Morgs and I split away
and headed toward Dickson for the Flat Coffee ride, did another few KM with
them before breakfast, also a nice easy pace. 60KM racked up on the road bike
before breakfast, now a lunch time mtb ride to look forward to in the
heat. Wheeee bikes are fun! :)
