Cyclists' Worst Fear

This is every bicyclists' worst nightmare come true. A car plows right into a bunch of bicyclists that were in a race in Mexico. 1 cyclist died and 10 were wounded. Juan Campos, 28-year-old driver, was apparently drunk and fell asleep when he crashed into the racers.

Please be careful on the road, especially near bikers!

Monrovia Canyon

Here are some shots of us at Monrovia Canyon again. I think it's very pretty there. There are a lot of trees, so it makes for nice hiking. I like hiking in the shade and not in the burning sun.

The Wizard of Bras

We're off to see the Wizard, the Wonderful Wizard of Bras.

Sorry, but I thought that was a funny sign. This is a store in Monrovia, California. I wonder who shops there.

Church Picnic

After church, kid's bible study, and kid's worship service, we had our church picnic. We had some Korean BBQ and lots of other food. We also had some games for the kids. It was fun but a lot of work as well.

Dinner at Tony's House

Tony Koo and his wife, Soo Jin, invited us for dinner on Saturday, May 24. (I know I'm way behind on my blogging.) I apologize again to my wonderful avid fans.

James, Hye Jin, John, Joseph, Ji Yeon, Grace, Jenny, MiJu, Sarah, and I were there. We had a good time, and there was lots of good food to eat. Soo Jin is a good cook.

We also had our teacher's meeting there.

More Charlie Pictures

Here are some more pictures of Charlie. It's hard to get good shots of him, because he doesn't want to sit still. He's a playful little puppy.

Charlie

We have a new addition to our family, Charlie. My sister got my parents a baby Cocker Spaniel a couple of weeks ago. He's a total cutie. My parents are having a heck of a time potty training him though. Other than that, he's such a good boy.

Turtles

There are a bunch of turtles in the garden next to the Athenaeum.

I took this on my way to the Bike To Work Week festivities. Maybe with gas prices increasing like crazy, more people will start riding their bikes. I already noticed there are a lot of slower drivers on the freeways. Hopefully, there will be more respect for cyclists as people become more aware of the importance of bikes.

Dinner With Friends

I'm sorry for not updating my blog in a long time. I've been busy with work and had a lot of stuff to catch up on. Thanks to my fans for remaining loyal.

Here's a picture of James and Hyejin "Grace" who came by our place for dinner. We had sashimi, salad, fried calamari, and Sarah's Famous Strawberry Smoothies.

April Office Party 2008

We had another great office party at Casey's Irish Bar & Grill. There were tons of great food, drinks, and friends to talk with. I had a fun night with coworkers drinking sodas.


I got pictures of Jeff, Kyle (shy all of a sudden), Burt, Hadi, Doug, Verlan, Brian, Nicole, Jessica, and Holland.

Bike Ride at the Beach with My Wife

Sarah and I went biking at the beach over the weekend. I was impressed with the fact that we biked 18 miles considering she hasn't biked in about 20 years. We went up and down the coast of Santa Monica, Venice, and Will Rogers State Beach. We had a nice strawberry smoothie to quench our thirst. Next time we'll go even farther and faster. Sarah wanted a comfort bike so I got her one, a Schwinn Sierra GS. She wants a basket on it. She thinks my bikes are too uncomfortable for her.

I want about ten more bikes in the future. I'll need to get a house with a big garage. I want to get a road racing bike, a dual suspension cross country bike, a downhill DH mountain bike, a tandem bike, a recumbent, a fixed gear track bike, a BMX trick bike, a folding bike, another mountain bike, and another high end time trial bike.

Hopefully, I can get a motorcycle too.

Moto X

I took a short clip of these insane Moto X motorcycle ramp jumpers. They jump about 80 feet across the ramp and get close to 30 feet high. They're freakin' nuts and super talented.

I was running out of space on my memory card. I took too many pictures and videos earlier that day. I took a bunch of videos of the Le Mans race and some videos of a couple of superstreet bikers doing tricks on their bikes. I tried to delete some videos to take videos of these Moto X guys getting incredible air.

I went over to the 2nd floor where I can get better videos of these guys, but I ran out of batteries. What a bummer.

Power Slide

These guys have excellent car control. They have to get their car tires to lose grip by a number of different drift inducing techniques, including power oversteering, and then have to control their cars driving sideways through the turns.

Drifting in Action

Drifting is awesome. I took some videos of the American Le Mans Series race. Those cars are fast and very loud, but the videos I took of them weren't quite as exciting as watching these drifters do their thing.

Drifters

Drifters and their whips.
