Exigency Ride
andy| May 20, 2009 6:28 pmTonight we number many but ride as one
In honor of those not with us, friends, mothers, fathers, sisters, sons
With helmets on tight and heads down low,
We ride in silence, cautious and slow
The wheels start spinning in the lead pack
But tonight we ride and no one attacks
The dark sunglasses cover our tears
Remembering those we held so dear
Tonight’s ride is to make others aware
The road is there for all to share
To those not with us or by our side,
May God be your partner on your final ride- Mike Murgas

- Bike to work ~ reduce air, noise, and visual pollution.
- Live in 20 minute neighborhoods ~ Save time, money, and your life
- Make electricity out of sun, wind, and tide ~ It is cheaper and almost maintenance free
- Go vegan ~ Much healthier and better for the environment
Happy Earth Day 2009!!
Spoony Attitude Towards the World
andy| August 8, 2008 8:45 amThe following videos really made my day. Thank you Amy for letting me know. Also, thank you Matt for making them. The put tears in my eyes.
Don’t forget the 2005 and 2006 editions.
These videos are just another proof that the world is a really happy and pretty place. Let’s work together to keep it that way.
Riders in Silicon Valley are not Indolent
andy| March 17, 2008 4:50 pmOn Saturday I started day by biking up Old La Honda road, down west 84, up west Alpine Road and back down Page Mill. The weather forecast was rain, rain, and rain. Of course the big difference between US east coast and west coast is that on the East coast when the forecast gets it wrong, the weather sucks big time. Here in California, when the forecast gets it wrong, it is a gorgeous day. Case in point, Saturday.
Anyway, in the afternoon I attended the Memorial Ride for Matt Peterson and Kristy Gough that were killed by a Sheriff deputy a week before. There were about 1000 cyclists all possible color and shape. We started at Foothill College and ride towards the Steven’s Canyon Road. The nice thing was that police was super cooperative and they blocked road for us. The ride itself was slow, but it was really nice to see so many cyclists joining. At the end, there was a small memorial for the cyclists that included a big cross, team jersey, lots of flowers, etc.
