Cycling Video - 200 M @ ADT

Cycling at the ADT Velodrome

I raced this past weekend at the ADT Velodrome, my second for the year. Very pleased with my 200 M time, considering where I am with my fitness and the gear I used. An official 11.57 sec to cover 200 M.


Start of the miss and out race.

Not too sure about his shoulder/back and the pedal from the French cyclist. The Dutchmen (orange and blue) is Theo Bos, current World Champion in the kilometer.

Oh Yeah...Graduation is right around the corner

M.S. in Education Technology and Information Systems. Once this is done, the next objective is to attempt the CISA certification in December and begin preparation for the CISSP.

Due to my job and hopefully with a good CSU doctoral program, I will enroll in the spring for an E.d.D. in Information Systems - I hope my fees are waived :-)

Video of my crash in 2005

This crash occurred at the Far West Championships in 2005. The result was a broken rib and my left leg with burns from the track. I was off the bike for a week then returned to my training schedule.

This is a classic:

She's clean here, after the rain this past weekend and me being ill, I could not get to keeping the dust off of her. I will most likely wash her tonight.


Caption time: Hmmm, I wonder how much is really needed?
