My pride and joy of my bicycle collection, and the only bike of mine that truly fits. Built by the legendary Dale Saso in San Jose, California, and properly equipped by WIllow Glen Bikes. It rides like a dream. Dale picked a selection of tubing and meticulously brazed them into Lewellyn lugs, to fit my riding style and the local mountain roads, something that no other bike can come close to. It rides fast, smooth and is actually comfortable, unlike most plastic racers.

Friends and I come here almost weekly for a good 5-6 mile hike. Here we are at the top of a hill. I wanted a 360 panorama, but everyone took off, so I had to catch up. I intend on spending a day here with a camera soon.

I've always wanted to learn how to paint. With paint. I've been a Photoshop 'painter' for a while, but that fine-art aesthetic element tends to disappear when transferring to print. No texture, unless it's simulated, and a monitor just isn't the same as a canvas. By coincidence, one of my favorite painters, Masako Miki, is teaching an Oil Painting class at the local community college, and I jumped on it.
