Swobo is here
Originally uploaded by leetchang. It finally arrived. The Swobo Sanchez that I ordered was delivered by UPS today. YEAH! I have more pictures but for some reason they turned out a little strange. There's a blue tinge throughout the pictures. I'm going to have to retake the pictures or figure some way to fix them in Photoshop. Anyways, assembly was pretty easy. I had it together in about thirty minutes. I tooled around my neighborhood after the rain went away. It was a blast to ride but I do need a front brake especially since I'm going to be commuting to work on it once or twice a week. Well, more pictures will be posted once I get my photos fixed.

Originally uploaded by leetchang. My wife and I did the 2006 Mt Saint Helens Tour de Blast ride. It was a blast. We're thinking about doing this ride again this year. It was a perfectly clear day with great views of Mt Saint Helens. It was a little warm for my tastes, upper 90's if I remember correctly. The climbing was more then I bargained for. The website said that there was only 6200 feet of total climbing but it turned out to be closer to 8600 feet of climbing based on my GPS. It was fun though and we'd like to do it again this year. Here's hoping we get they same clear weather like we did last year. Click on the photo if you'd like to see more pictures from our ride.

I've had to replace my repaired Tufo tires with a new spare because the repair failed. The hole in the tire kept on leaking air. From the looks of it, the super glue doesn't doesn't bond well to the rubber. I might try a different glue like Gorilla glue or the new Elmers Ultimate glue.

This was the first time I’ve had to change a tubular tire on the side of the road. I didn’t have much problems getting the tire off and putting the spare on but removing the valve extender from the flatted tire to the spare was a pain.

I was at the intersection of 6th and Stewart in downtown Seattle trying to beat a light when my chain broke. I was peddling hard out of the saddle at the time so I came crashing down onto the pavement when the chain snapped.

My E-Motion rollers had arrived. After getting my bike into the garage I brought the box inside and rushed upstairs to take a quick shower.

I'm not too entirely sure if my power gains can be attributed to the PowerCranks since I just started cycling a few months before I got the PowerCranks and I had very little power to begin with.

This is the first road bike I've had in over 15 years.
I recieved my Powercrank xLite yesterday and installed them on my road bike. The installation process wasn't too hard as long as you follow the instructions.

This ride was held on Whidbey Island which is an island locaed in the Puget Sound just northwest of Seattle. There were three different routes to choose from, a century, a half century and a 25 mile ride. My wife rode the 25 mile ride while I chose the to ride the full century.

The hard part was trying to figure out a way to fit excersise time into my busy schedule. It so happened that a few of my workmates cycled to work daily which got me thinking - why don't I ride to work?
