Chinese New Year pot luck organized by The Magic Tortoise Taijiquan School. A couple of demonstrations of sword from, one of cane form and one of Wu/Hao 16 movement form. #taijiquan #taiji #magictortoise #chinesenewyear #pig (at Extraordinary Ventures) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtrFgDZDaiT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1x1mtowhnt8b8

North Carolinians make a HUGE deal out of their BBQ sauce and whether eastern or western is better. Personally I think they both pale against the best BBQ sauce there is: Alabama white BBQ sauce. Glad to finally find a source for it that ships to NC. #whitebbqsauce #alabama #northcarolina #bigbobgibson (at North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/Btew6P0j-kG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ez9s120rqmkp

I started out the new year with a great bike ride with my On Draft group. 49 miles through Orange and Alamance counties and lunch at the Saxapahaw General Store. My new Canyon Endurace is a dream to ride. It still can use some final fit tweaks but it really is a joy to ride and it climbs like nobody’s business! Very happy with it. #bigsexyracing #powerisking #pioneerpowermeter #rubyslube #canyonbikes #endurace #teamondraft #ondraft #bikelaw #bikelawfoundationambassador #rideproud (at Carrboro, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsHjUdrjyEY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zesz135wyt5e

It isn’t often you see “Orchestrated by Mozart” when referring to Handel’s Messiah. Looking forward to experiencing this version. #dukechapelchoir #messiah #handel #mozart (at Duke University Chapel) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq0s_oQBE0Z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=n7pvvdgid0vl

Next year will be my second year as a member of the Big Sexy Racing Team. This year I’m very much looking forward to the team race (which I missed this year) at the Chattanooga 70.3 in May. While I’m there, I will be very glad to be sporting the team jersey you see here in the second picture. Since it looks like there may be around 50 or more of us at the race, if you attend you’ll probably see this jersey a lot out on the course. #Bigsexyracing https://www.instagram.com/p/BqwKuuzj9Fx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=lf6dq136cwb5

So between crazy work things and family visiting for the holidays, I sort of took about a week and a half off social media. Otherwise, I would have posted that among other things, I’ve been accepted to be an ambassador for the Bike Law Foundation for 2019. What is Bike Law, you might ask? Well, it’s not a race team. Basically, it’s an ethos; a mission; a social change movement; a collective of people dedicated to the pursuit of cycling justice, advocating for people on bikes, leading by example, and being the chance we wish to see in the world. As a Bike Law Foundation ambassador sponsored by the Bike Law Network, I am committed to the improvements needed to make cycling better, safer, and more sustainable for everyone who rides. Everyone who rides is a cyclist and every cyclist is deserving of a culture in which riding s bicycle is valued, protected, encouraged and celebrated. We’re all in this together, and together we ride safe, happy, often and PROUD! #Bikelaw #bikelawfoundationambassador #rideproud https://www.instagram.com/p/BqwKFdLDOQ6/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1m3biby02iibz

I didn’t actually realize there would be a medal so this was a pleasant surprise at the end of the ride. #granfondohincapie #bigsexyracing (at Gran Fondo Hincapie) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpLY8KUDwvQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nuft9izc5toy
