Weird and wacky french animation - 16:12
So I was in
Bundanoon the
other night and they were showing the movie
Les Triplettes de
Belleville, an animated movie length feature released in 2003. The movie
shows cyclists to be a somewhat obsessive compulsive sort of bunch (we really
are), and has a large number of rather strange visuals or ideas running
through it.
Definitely an entertaining and worthwhile movie to see, some hilarious
sections, some strange bits, not a lot of dialogue so you need to concentrate
on the imagery to get a lot from it also there is some good music. Tres cool.
The "car chase" at the end is really highly amusing, the seemingly endless
number of ways the broad shouldered mafia can crash cars is fantastic.

Tacos rock - 16:07
So I went over to help a friend out with some computer issues the other day,
as a thankyou they served a rather good dinner. Tacos, I have not eaten Tacos
for about 8 years, I wonder why not, they absolutely rock. Also very easy to
prepare, get some sour cream, some cheese, cut up some tomato and lettuce, get
a jar of taco sauce (spiciness to taste) and choose the base sauce, meat
base, or refried bean base or something else. And you know what, they taste
great. Mmmmmmm tacos.

My 2005 Highland Fling 100 KM mountain bike marathon. - 12:23
Well I still
have that cold, which is rather annoying, however it did give me a great
reason to slow up and take it easy yesterday. I have uploaded my
Highland Fling photos
and a few words now. The event was a lot of fun, an absolutely fantastic
course for a 100 KM race. The weather was perfect, the marshals and everyone
else out there was good. Highly recommended.
