Saddle Up!!!
Working on all these projects, I have put riding my bike on the back burner. Luckily there are plenty of blogs to cruise thru so that I don't forgot about it. Pulled these images from Zlog. I need to saddle up again, I miss it.

Another reason we went to Las Vegas was for Interbike. I have never been to interbike, so I was like a kid in a candy store. A whole lot of dope new bikes, and parts to see. Here are some snappy snaps.

Sunday was Not the Day of Rest
Meghan and I woke up early Sunday morning and got ready to head to West Valley College. My family, for the past 5 years, have participated in the annual 5K Lupus Walk/Run. It's a really good walk in and around the West Valley campus. Meghan loves to walk fast, so keeping up with her was a task, haha. We got some cool swag after the walk as well, which will prove to be useful later on in the day.
After the walk, meghan and I had breakfast at Bills...and you can't go wrong at bills.
Later that afternoon, strapped on the HOC kit and headed downtown to meet up with Mike, Tim, Andoo, Rex and Alex to do a Livestrong Loop. This particular loop took us from Downtown San Jose to the West Side, to Los Gatos to the East Side of San Jose, and back. I not much of a hill climber so the hills that we rode were Brutal!! No matter, Finished the ride, Sonoma Chicken for dinner and that was that.
Mike was our tour guide and here was his map.

7D on Memorial Day
Finally got a chance to spend the day shooting with my new Canon 7D. Monday afternoon I road down to Williams St. Park to chill with SJF for a Memorial Day BBQ. Always a good time to chill with the OG's and the new kids. Ate good food, drank good drink, and talked a whole lot of story. Here are some snaps from the park.

Mini Velodrome?
This Red Bull Mini Velodrome looks fun and dangerous. To the lady that took a spill? Hats off to you.
@ iMD
Today I did my daily ride downtown. Yes, I know its only 6 miles there and 6 miles back, but I can't be careless, with my knee and all. Anyway, took off to downtown and went to visit the folks over at iMD. Always a good time over at the shop. Shooting the shit and looking at bikes. Had me a Togo's sandwich, threw some lube on my chain and I was on my way back home. I've always enjoyed riding my bike, but now that I am back, I'm loving it even more.

Got My Legs Back...Sorta
About 2 months ago I built a new bike.
Something to take on the nasty terrain of San Jose. It's not so nasty out here, but very very bumpy haha. It felt nice, fast, compact and able to pull tricks (if i practiced enough). After a few weeks of riding it, I noticed my right knee was starting to hurt. I didn't pay it any mind, so kept riding. Then after another week, I noticed my knee really starting to give me heat. When I would go to work it was hard to walk up the stairs and what not. I decided to lay off the bike and consult with my buddy Jero. Jero is a Sports Therapist so I knew, if anyone knew what was going wrong, it was him. It's really hard to get our schedules together so, my professional consultation was done through text. I told him, my right knee was aching and there was a slight "clicking" sound when I bent it. Right away, he hit me back with "Dude, you might have Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome". What The SUC!!! Pattelofem-wha? Good ol' google told me that it "can be defined as retropatellar or peripatellar pain resulting from physical and biochemical changes in the patellofemoral joint." Again, WHA!? Jero also hit me with "make sure you ice your knee and do stretches that will work the butt and thigh". After another week of being scared to ever ride a bike again, I decided to go to the doctor and get the official word. Not that I didn't trust the words of Jero, but I needed to see a doctor anyway. 20mins in the waiting room and 85$ (high deductible) later, the attending doctor told me "You have Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome", and handed me a purple piece of paper with stretches I already knew about. WHAT!!!!!! I paid 85 smackaroos for THIS! Whatever, for the piece of mind, I guess it was worth it. So, 2 weeks of nightly stretching and icing, my knee feels better. I am back on the bike and feeling good. I don't fully blame the new bike I built (which has now been parted out and sold to others), but I'm sure it played a part. The bike was too small for me, and the parts were not to my spec. Oh well, lesson learned.
After work now, I usually saddle up and head downtown. It's only a 12+mile round trip to iMD, but its a good gateway route/mileage to get me back to 100%.
Today, I did my ride and I felt great! The wind thru my helmet, tunes arockin', all good. Stopped by iMD chilled with the family and had a burrito.
After the La Vics, Matt and I went to Ryan's pad to chill for a bit before TNR. More of the SJFAM, JP, and Andrew were there kickin' it. Then we all took a small ride to the TNR meet up. Mike met up at the San Jose Giants stadium so him and I could ride back to the south side together. Andrew decided to tag along so we were off.
We stopped by Mike's old house so he could pick up some mail, and I decided to invite the dudes over to see Meghan and my new place.
After they took off, I turned my machine on and decided to blog this whole slab of boring stuff.

Here are some randoms from my iPhone that I just now decided to post. Enjoy

Sweet zip up hoodie Meghan bought me. It is from her unit at the hospital. I'll wear it proudly!
Pano of the newly remodeled house I grew up in. My dad is in there twice. haha
Been bowling a lot with the iMD family. My score sucks, but I'm getting better, so watch out!
