Media Frenzy

After his individual time trial 4th place finish, Levi Liepheimer dons team Astana's white long-sleeve jersey. Thereafter, he rolls toward my direction. As he closes to about 4 feet, news reporters halt him for an interview. There I am caught in the middle of a media frenzy. Around me, I see reporters & camera men alike with their dangling "Tour of Amgen media passes."

As they pursue with their interrogation, snap shots with their foot-long, lensed S.L.R. & aim with their sophisticated video cams, I face a dilema. I am perplexed whether to dash out to the curbside where I belong as a spectator or hold my ground and blend in with the newscasters. I opt for the latter. Dwarfed by its gigantic counterparts, I unzip my miniature Cannon Power Shot from its protective pouch. Momentarily, I aim from its built-in liquid crystal display & start clicking.

Schwinn Paramount 50th Anniversary Edition

     

  I tried building this bike with full Shimano Dura Ace AX gruppo but I was limiting the build to 6 speeds only since the AX group is an indexed 6 speed and no matter how good your friction shifting is, the rear deraileur would index into one of those 6 grooves of the RD. Since this is a 1988 Paramount with Shimano dropouts, I decided to go with Dura Ace 7410 stuff. Although the 8 speed DA was officially released in 1989, prototypes of the DA 8 were used in the 1988 Giro D'Italia.
     
       The highlight of this project is probably the rare SP-7410 black Dura Ace seatpost and the Dura Ace handlebar and stem with hidden bolts.

Triplet at Coyote Hills Regional Park

The weather was warm and we decided to go for a quick spin at the Coyote Hills Regional Park. The little guy was so excited going around Coyote hill pointing at almost everything that moves, but when we turned towards the open space where Alameda Creek meets the bay, he keeps on mumbling, "I am bored". So, we headed back to the Visitor Center where we took a quick see/look/watch tour of the museum.
We had a blast looking at the educational displays and exhibits as well as the Possum's Pocket Nature Store. The exhibits portray the Ohlone way of life, and includes a tee-pee and a tule reed boat constructed by park staff and volunteers using Native American methods. Other exhibits cover the park’s natural history and wildlife.
On our way back to the parking lot, the little guy was again too excited that he keeps on getting off the saddle and then dance on the pedals saying, "this is how Lance does it".
A nice outing of the family on a triplet for the day.
