one thousand posts: its been a good ride

Well, this is the 1000th post on the Doom blog, and its clearly evident that this site has only a semblance of its original objective, anymore.  Alas, I've become the worst kind of cyclist - a blogger.  Its been around 2 years since anything of Doom orientation has been posted on here, and while its been fun trashing the scene that we helped start, and hopefully, raising the eyebrows of a few "fixie" kids towards other kinds of cycling.  I don't see the purpose in continuing to post under the Doom banner.  I have another blog in the works that I hope will be better suited for the masses, and its time to focus on that.  Its been a good ride, and I am truly appreciative for the hundreds of you that check this site everyday.  I will be posting a link here to the new site in a couple of weeks should any of you see fit to join me over there.

I would like to leave this last post open to the video that, really, started it all, and was the reason that most of you ever came this way in the first place.  Over and out.  Doom por vida.

more morning rides

I did a quick little 40 mile'r this morning out on the country roads.  I did some new climbs today, and I saw miniature donkeys/lamas.  Here's a little pic of farm country:
