That Boy is Jamming!

Why did I only hear about this kid yesterday?!

Should I ever happen to have a little one of my own, I doubt his name will be Nathaniel, but I hope beyond hope that he will like to dance.

In other news, Bronwyn and I did the Dim Sum and Then Sum ride yesterday and it was a deliciously awesome way to spend the day. The destination was Sea Harbour Restaurant in Rosemead (my favorite!), with a fairly direct route through downtown via Valley Blvd. out and a longer loop going through Pasadena and Eagle Rock on the way back. It began where it ended, in front of the Bicycle Kitchen, which means that when we returned there was the additional treat of Scoops. Tastiest ride ever!

The total trip was about 37 miles. To mix it up, I rode my track bike and this was probably the farthest I’ve done it thus far in one go. It was perfectly comfy, though. The only hairy part was bombing (or skidding) down that hill going west on Colorado Blvd. just before entering Eagle Rock. Mmm… burned rubber.

Since the 200km brevet is happening on the 12th of January, I think for “training” purposes I need to squeeze another long ride (maybe 80 miles) in before then. Bronwyn and I are leaving for the holidays on Saturday and won’t be back until the New Years, which leaves just the weekend of the 5th & 6th. I can’t remember if there were any other plans, but if not, maybe I can do another roundtrip ride down to Long Beach out to this brew pub on the beach I remember.
