BRIDGES
Nov 10, 2017 Todd Brown
I LIKE RIDING MY BIKE ACROSS BRIDGES, getting from one side to the other. Little wood bridges, ladder bridges, walking bridges, bridges with cars, I like them all. On the bridge, the sound of the bike changes. The bigger the bridge, the better view of where you’ve been and where you’re going. And then you’re..
HE SHOULD BE FLYING
Nov 09, 2017 Todd Brown
WITH NUMBERS LIKE THESE AN EARTHLING SHOULD BE FLYING ON A BICYCLE: 6′ 2″, 130 lbs, and his Hematocrit (Hct) level is 58.6. But, he’s not. He’s not 25. He’s 82, and he’s laying in a hospital bed, worn out from a 7 year battle with Parkinson’s Disease. Because his muscles are constantly moving he..
WHAT AM I MISSING?
Nov 08, 2017 Todd Brown
SHANE AND I HAVE BEEN HAVING EPIC BATTLES ON THE CHESS BOARD. It’s tense. Dead silent. Massive amounts of sugar burning between our ears. If there’s one thing I’ve learned lately, it’s to focus less on my next move and more on his. Of all the the bicycle racing I’ve done – road, cross county..
I MISS THE DARK
Nov 07, 2017 Todd Brown
TODAY WAS THE FIRST TMWC SINCE THE TIME CHANGE. It was lot lighter, which meant more cars on the road early… but that quiet pre-time change dark is not what I’m missing. I’m missing the dark side of me. Last night I went to bed ticked off. No reason, really. Tossed and turned all night,..
PULL YOUR HEAD OUTTA YOUR GLASS!
Nov 06, 2017 Todd Brown
I TELL MYSELF TO PULL MY HEAD OUTTA MY GLASS ALL THE TIME. So much of my day is spent looking at glass: the computer monitor, the “smart” phone, the TV screen, the tablet. Some of it is for work, too much of it is utter nonsense. And, I’m not alone. Addiction is weird, when..
STOPPING TO HELP
Nov 05, 2017 Todd Brown
A HOMELESS MAN LAY STREWN ACROSS THE DIRT, the sun was beating down on him. I pretended not to see him, and rode by on my expensive bike. My friend stopped. I could see him talking to the man and offering him something. As they got smaller, I could only guess. Soon, my friend had..
HOW TO CLEAN YOUR BIKE
Nov 04, 2017 Todd Brown
I ONLY KNOW ONE WAY TO CLEAN MY BIKE, and it goes like this: 1. Have all afternoon with nothing to do. 2. Dial up an Essential playlist on i-Tunes. Today I lost myself in Bob Dylan: The rushing beat of Hurricane’s rush to judgement, the feeling of a Rolling Stone, the sweetness of Forever..
NOSCO ’17
Nov 03, 2017 Todd Brown
(Me, Todd and Tod) JACK NOSCO HAS CREATED A PHENOMENOM. Each year, on November 3rd, 800+ bike riders take the day off from work and ride. They ride to remember Jack’s brother, Mike, who was killed riding his bike. They ride to raise funds to help people in the community, real people that Jack knows…..
PURSUING YOUR PASSION
Nov 02, 2017 Todd Brown
WITH ALL THE BUZZ ABOUT PURSUING YOUR PASSION, it’s surprising how few actually do it. I think it’s because the people who write the books are writers, and the people pursing their passion aren’t writing about it. They are too busy doing it. So how does a 9 year old kid pursue his passion and..
DINNER AND LIVE SOCAL CYCLING PODCAST
Nov 01, 2017 Todd Brown
IT STARTED WITH A TEXT FROM MY FRIEND PAUL: Chris is going to be in town, wanna do something? Yes, let me call Brian… we’ll have some fun. Paul works as a cycling coach for Chris Carmichael’s company CTS, and Brian runs The SoCal Cycling Podcast. Me, I’m just a guy. We started the night..
YOU MOCK ME!
Oct 31, 2017 Todd Brown
MY SON SHANE DRESSES UP FOR HALLOWEEN AS A “BIKER” EVERY YEAR. What could be funniererer than dressing up in dad’s biking clothes and partying up the night? There’s no respect, which I’m used to. There’s no effort to say cyclist or cycling kit or bibs or jersey.. If he knew they were called bibs,..
