New Mountain Bike

May 16, 2006 at 6:30 am · Filed under Sports

I picked up a new mountain bike on the weekend. I had finally heard back from my insurance company with regards to the garage theft, and everything was okayed to get a new bike.
836
Once again, I bought the bike from WestPoint Cycles.

BTW, if you are a bike owner, Federation Insurance is the way to go because they don’t have any special limits or restrictions on bikes. I think they are now called Economical Insurance.

Getting There

May 15, 2006 at 8:06 pm · Filed under Tern 14 kayak

I made some good progress with the kayak last week. I put in fillets and taped all the seams on the underside of the deck. My friend Craig helped me ‘glass the inside of the hull, and I almost finished cleaning up the seams on the outside of the deck.

A few thoughts…
1. when ‘glassing the inside of a hull, maybe it’s best to put nice large radius fillets along all the seams. The fibreglass really doesn’t like lying down inside edges
2. black epoxy is a pain to work with
3. sanding through epoxy does not neccessarily create a halo effect. If you’re wondering why I mention this, please refer to #2 above…

This guy has guts

May 9, 2006 at 11:12 pm · Filed under Politics

Stephen Colbert is one gutsy guy. At the recent White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner he delivered a bomb of a speech/performance. Within a few feet of President Bush, Colbert repeatly lampooned Bush, his administration, and the rest of the correspondents association. I won’t go into detail on it, there’s already a lot of information on the event. Here’s a viewpoint from CBC on the event. If you would like to watch the video, check it out here on Google video.

That took a lot of balls from Colbert.
