Esther and I posted a couple of times from the lake, but they never appear. I think they are stuck in internet limbo… I hope that I can figure out how we can post before Saturday. I’m going to try G-cast. Check out podcast.jeredb.com for more information.
For real podcast update (on our backup system) check out: http://www.gcast.com/u/jeredb/main.

For a while. I’m going to be on the road and on vacation. I will unwired, but podcasting. Check out here. I hope you will listen in and comment.

Oh my god. By god, I’m probably refering to Floyd Landis. He has become a major cycling god today. Yesterday, in a major mountains stage, Floyd lost about 8 minutes. 8 minutes is nearly impossible to make up in the cycling world.
An awe inspiring performance.

Yesterday I picked up our bikes from the bike shop and today I was back there to buy some of the last supplies for our trip including a bag and rack for my bike. I also got some new cycle shorts and they are amazing! They have “11 mm of padding”.
That will really make a nice ride. We also got most of the food for the car and started packing it up. I organized all the bike gear into a very organized system. Esther and I should have no problem getting everything ready when we get to WI.
Also had to rewrap Esther’s handle bar tape, not fun, but it looks a hell of a lot better now.
Reading is something that I plan on doing a lot of over my vacation, seeing I’m not going to have a computer or anything. I plan on reading On the Postal Bus, The World is Flat (about a 1/3 of the way through) and Battlespace. I’d be pretty happy if I can read all three.
Only on a bicycle? Hmmm.
