Once Again

My favorite part of this, is when their palmares are revealed. Boonen, a card carrying badass, with 145 victories. Eddy, with 525! This folks, is the reason, that Mr. Armstrong recognizes the Cannibal as the GOAT- no one will ever get even into the area code of his greatness.

Bike Sale!

This Saturday, September 11th, eDBiLLy is having a sale. Parts, bikes, clothes- stuff that has slowly accumulated. The wing ding is going to run from 10 am to 3 pm. If you need directions to get to CiTy BiLLy World Headquarters, drop me a line.

It's not the yellow brick road

They're not cobbles, but they are a challenge to ride.

Schnoctobeerfest 2010

Details on the 2010 CiTy BiLLy Fall Classic will be forthcoming very soon. Join us in our mission to find the world's best beers & riding our bicycles!

Grab a cold one, let's talk

Tomorrow, the BS is over for the Tour de France. We'll truly find out if Lance has a chance or not. I still think Contador is going to go nuts & lay 2 minutes into the peloton. I'm shocked that Schleck is in the position he's in, along with Evans. The only way that Alberto isn't going to run away with this thing, is if the rest of the GC contendors gang up on him.

Tour de France Preview

I like Contador. I also think that this will be the last professional outing for a certain Texan, when he realizes that the engine just doesn't run like it used to. More to come in the next couple of days.

LBL recap

Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures to go along with this narrative. Blame it on my laziness. The forecast was for rain, a common forecast for LBL. Yet, somehow, the day turned out to be a great one for cycling. At 9 am, the meet & greet began, with new friends (cRuNcHBiLLy) and old friends (KeRNeL, t-BiLLy, eDBiLLy, eDDy LeE, B-BiLLy, DiRk) all enjoying a fresh keg of Hopluia. The ride began promptly at 10, with the prevailing concensus being "let's knock this out before we get drenched". Unfortunately, plans kind of went awry when we reached Spilker Ales, the hallowed ground upon which Hopluia is created. On the outskirts of Cortland, we ran into Jim, who rode LBL three or four years ago. Jim rode with us to the brewery & the tour began. After a walk-through of the brewery & a few (ahem) samples, it was time to begin the ride back. Everyone arrived back at my house at relatively the same time, so the pitchers of Hopluia began to flow & the yarns began. We had some pizza, more beer, tons of laughs. It began to rain, so we went downstairs to the bike room. It was well after dark when everyone left. The next CiTy BiLLy event is ScHnOcToBeeRFesT, in October. There is talk of a section of pave in this year's edition. Viva le cobbles! Rattle those bottles!
