David B. Davis

I used to ride in Oklahoma. I used to ride in Texas. I used to ride in New Jersey and nearly bought the farm. Now I ride (and hike) with a titanium spine in Northern California. I'm very happy to be here, or anywhere, really.
The web site link is to my playlist of chill tunes. Just another passion.


Avant, je faisais du vélo dans l'Oklahoma. Puis j'en faisais au Texas. Après, j'en faisais dans le New Jersey où j'ai failli me buter dans un accident de descente. Maintenant j'en fais dans la Californie, muni d'une colonne vertébrale en titanium. Je suis ravi d'être ici. Je suis ravi d'être en vie où que ce soit.

RIP MR GSQ

Shorthand for I killed a ground squirrel with my bike today :( Poor dumb thing darted out of the hottentots right in front of me on the Foster City levée as I was going 23 mph. My rear wheel got him. I imagine it was painless, as it was all…

Half o' Ham

My first foray on a bike up Mt. Hamilton road. Turned back at Grant Park out of prudence. I thought about going on, but was solo, no cell singals. Ah'll be bahck.

The Super Stupid Driver Edition

So, I'm coasting dowhill at 20mph on a 6-foot shoulder to a stoplight where 15 or so cars are stacked up at a stop in the only lane. Then suddenly, the 10th guy on line pulls his nose rightward into my path and nearly blocks the entire shoulder. I barely…

Uphill begets downhill

I tried to push it today since I've had a few days off. Love this route into West Alpin; but damn, the few cars you encounter there are so clueless!

It's 5 O'Clock Somewhere

... but 5:00 here, today, saw the fog rolling in with force over the Ridge, and the temps dropped 15° from 1 hour earlier. Long shadows in the canyon, too.

Toasty 34 - the slow mix

1000 gnats attacking, 100 goats a-mowing, plenty salamanders, 99 DEGREES!, four mourning doves, 3 water bottles, 2 leaping does, and a dead field mouse. No partridges.

Just to see if I could go harder. And I did. Picked up a couple of doughnut holes at the Village Hub for fuel. They're doing something there. Café was closed.
