This passed Saturday was the first of two class sessions for the bicycle mechanics course. Lots of good information, tech tips, demonstrations, and hands-on practice. Mr. Paul Walton is the instructor who is sharing his knowledge with novice (me) and seasoned bicyclists and all those in between. When I registered for the class I wasn't sure what the $35 materials fee was going to cover. It does cover the cost of the Big Blue Book of Bicycle Repair and other incidentals like the shop towels. Great way to spend a Saturday. Can't wait for session two...

Bicycle Lovestory, Feb 14
This is what I have in mind.
10 women, 10 men
Bicycles are matched and by doing so, singles are matched
Agree to meet at the Albuquerque Museum of Art on Feb. 14th
Have a picture of your bike to post online along with
-your name
-your age
-preferred match for your bike
Here's an example:
Antonio
35 yo
"My bicycle prefers similar single speeds with a casual bike-riding mentality. Whitewall tires are sexy."
Post a comment to the blog if you are interested.

Week in Review
I have always looked at Saturdays as the end of the week. Friday is the end of the normal work week and most mark the end of the week with cocktails, dinner, movie, a show, drunken Karaoke performances, or a combination of all those.
My week was fabulous. Busy preparing for the semester and moving my life in a new direction. I have committed to working another fire season with the Forest Service. Hopefully the knees will hold up. I'm thinking about my French class and the fun I am going to have reacquainting myself with its culture and language (Francais et une langue tres romantique, oui?). Looking at my calendar, I noticed St. Valentine's Day falls on a Sunday. I had an epiphany, ironically it occured on Wednesday, January 6th, about organizing a Bicycling Singles Mingle get together at the art museum on this day. If you are interested in participating or helping organize this, shoot me an email or post a comment. Here's the general info:
I'm calling it Bicycle Lovestory!
10 women, 10 men
We'll match bicycles and by doing so, indirectly match singles
Singles must give basic info: Type of bicycle w/picture, your age, and preferrred match for your bicycle
Agree to meet at the art museum on Feb. 14th
After this day, you'll be inspired to begin writing your Bicycle Lovestory...
Chapter 1, The Art Museum...
I'll post a free ad in the Alibi classifieds over the next few weeks.

And so it begins...
Another wonderful year to re-discover and explore the world in which we live and call home. For me, 2010 will be fruitful. I will make it so by enjoying the things that give me happiness like melodic music, flavorful food cooked by my hands, nature's picturesque beauty and intoxicating fragrances. New Mexico is a great place to do it all, BUT my wanderlust will pull me to other interesting more sophisticated cultures. I'll keep an open mind, a smile ready to illuminate, and a reserve of energy to continue my evolution...
