From the President, September 21, 2023
The cool low 90s are here, but so’s the humidity! It’s not just the weather that’s changing, though; from October 1st, our Zube and Hump Day rides roll at the winter time of 8.00 am. Another half an hour of kip can never be a bad thing, but 8.00 am is the start...

Back in the days when I was a mariner, we were berthing an oil tanker in the Arabian Gulf in summer in intense heat. We went alongside at “2 a.m. in the morning,” and as the local pilot, an Arab, and I walked out of the wheelhouse to look over the side to see how...

From The President March 3, 2023
According to some old people, if March comes in like a lion, it goes out like a lamb, but having grown up in the north east corner of England, I’m not sure about that; March was always cold and windy when I was a kid. Here in this corner of Texas, though, we’re all...
From The President February 2, 2023
Here we are, five weeks into 2023, and I’m already off the pace for my annual mileage target, thanks to the cold weather we’ve been having! We need the heater back on! Tuesday February 7th sees the first of the year’s monthly meetings taking place at NW Cyclery,...
From The President December 24, 2022
