Thu. May 20, 2010
21st wedding anniversary today, so because of that and the outrageous wind in Vancouver I skipped the bicycle and got on the 6:40 bus, with the intention of leaving early for drinks with my wife.

Wed. May 19, 2010
KM today: 18.1+7 = 25.1
This week: 61.3
AM: 13C, Wind E10km/h and really felt it from home all the way to Cypress Mtn. 18.1km bike ride took about 50 mins. 190lbs.
Listened to On Point's podcast on the Mexican-American war. James Polk was a so-so Prez but saw the need to have east-west control by annexing Texas and taking Mexico's Arizona, NM, Utah and California. Mexico gave up, sold it all to the US for $15m, but secured the upper tip of the Baja penninsula so that it had a land route there.
PM: 12C, Wind E31km/h. HUGE wind and late so I got a ride home from Park Royal. Listened to Chap 3 of Moby Dick.
