Watching Tour of California 2nd consecutive night (thanks ITV4!) and am happy to report that I share atleast one piece of equipment with the riders who ride at the very top levels. It’s the Garmin Edge 500 – I bought it because it’s cheap and full of features, they use it because it is light and full of features :)

A mature cycling culture
Been thinking of some ideas/features on cycling forums / websites that I think are lacking. At some time the thought turned to Cyclists.in and from there to how the cycling culture in India still isn’t mature.
See, in my book, for a place to have a thriving cycling culture it should have had vicious debates on forums and in comments on these topics:
1. Are helmets good or bad for cycling / cyclists?
2. Shimano vs Campagnolo vs SRAM components.
3. Lycra clad speedsters vs. Fixie sporting hipsters vs. Regular pannier & mudguard sporting urban cyclists.
4. Aluminium vs Steel vs Carbon vs Titanium frames.
Since I don’t see any of these debates in place on cyclists.in, I doubt that the cycling culture has matured yet. Wonder how long will the culture take to develop to that level, if ever.

90 more minutes on the Jigsaw
Hope I can finish it tonight and get on with rest of life.
Jigsaws are addictive
… another 3.5 hours gone.
Progress on the jigsaw
Another 90 minutes spent today while watching Spurs vs City.
P.S.: Is City’s case an example of how throwing more & more money can eventually buy one success? No offense meant to the players, staff or supporters.
New Jigsaw
Got this as a gift from friends back from a vacation in Italy. Here’s how little over an hour’s work looks like.
The debate on AV
It is interesting how the No campaign has focussed the limelight on one much disliked personality to defeat the referendum. (Voting is still on but most agree there is no chance of referendum passing).
Thinking of giving up smoking for a while…
Thinking of giving up smoking for a while after I come back from India. Let’s see how this goes.
To be young again To make those mistakes…
To be young again. To make those mistakes again. To fall in love again. To learn to walk again. To be cared for again. To be carefree again. Ahh… to live this life again, what will I not give. Death is too small a cost.
