Tour Tracker w/video:  http://usapro.thetourtracker.com/

As of this posting (4 PM on May 26) the Men's Road Race was in-progress.  Alison Powers (UnitedHealthcare Pro Women's Team) has made US cycling history this past Memorial Day holiday-weekend by winning both the women's individual time-trial on Saturday and, earlier today, the women's road race - add that to the criterium race she won in August of 2013, Powers becomes the first woman to hold national-titles concurrently in all 3 road-disciplines governed by USA Cycling - she will defend that criterium-title in a few months.

ODE TO COURTNEY

5/25/2014

 
Goodbye, Courtney.  Wherever you are...

Well, that cat of mine disappeared again over a week ago, and this time I'm pretty sure it's for good.  No sign of her (or her remains, though), so I can't confirm one way or the other.

ChongMing ISLAND - HIGHLIGHTS

5/24/2014

 
Round 5 of the UCI Women's Road World Cup took place on May 18 on Chongming Island, near the mouth of the Yangtze River just outside of Shanghai in China.  Other than a suspension-bridge the course was pan-flat, which made this the "sprinters' round", and, given her success with bunch-sprint victories so far this year it was won by Kirsten Wild (Liv-Shimano).

DHARMA FOR ONE

5/22/2014

 
PictureJethro Tull Mk 1, 1968
One of the all-time greatest folk- & progressive-rock bands, and a true "fusion" band in every sense of the word was - and still is - Jethro Tull. 

The outfit that was (& still is) led by Ian Anderson (foreground, at left) since its inception in 1967 went through rather numerous personnel-changes over the years, and despite all those changes the band has only had two electric lead guitarists (Anderson is quite proficient on acoustic guitar & harmonica as well as vocals & flute) in its entire history:  of course there's Martin Barre (who joined Tull in '69 right at the cusp of their ascent to prog-rock success, and remains with Tull to this day) - but before Barre, there was a more blues- & jazz-centric guitar-manster - his name is Mick Abrahams.
