Elapsed Time

Ok so alot of time has elapsed since my last posting. 28 months to be accurate. So much has happened in that time.

First off the obvious

  • I switched from bBlog to Wordpress. bBlog served me well for several years before becoming abandoned, I was able to migrate all my blog (shudder) posts and the few comments across.

Then the less obvious

  • I moved web hosts. From a colo of my own, to a vps of my own. I’m no longer offering web hosting to others because of the problems it brought with it.
  • About 19 months back, I bought a bike to commute on. Since then I’ve upgraded (Feb 09) and have covered 10,000km.
  • Last weekend I was in Melbourne for the Around the bay in a day ride; I think I did ok to complete the 210km event in 7hrs 22mins (moving, 8hrs53min elapsed). I’ve uploaded the full gps data.

And fineally the practically unknown

Starting Wednesday, I’ll be ridingĀ  from Esperance to Perth to raise money for Teen Challenge WA. Sponsor me. We’ll be getting into Perth on Sunday 1st, into Parliament Place West Perth, so come along and cheer us across the finish line.

This is a placeholder. Everything older than this post is very old. There’s a 28 month gap in the posts, so keep that in mind when reading ancient history.
Also there’s a pretty good change of broken links (even internal links) because all of these posts were done in a different application, on a different server, at a much different time.
