Words of Wisdom





Leonard Cohen says much more eloquently than I can:  

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in
That's how the light gets in 

Ganesh as OM!!






                        GANESH AS  OM

Happy Birthday, Ganesh!




It's Ganesha's Birthday
Tantra's Lord
Time to go 
overboard
Sleep in
Drink gin
Disport with low women
Anything to shock the 
system
For on the wild side 
we will know him
Happy Birthday Lord Ganesh
To love you always is my wish!!!

Elite Men's Time Trial 9/19/12


Hooray for Tony Martin
who defended the Elite TT
He showed both skill and class
The mann from Germany
Ditto a man named Taylor
Phinney from the states
At 5:37 back it's Silver
that he takes
Way to go!,
you stellar cyclists
The world congratulates

VUELTA a ESPANA 2012


Vuelta Stage 21
Degenkolb sprints to win 5 stages
Valverde wins points
Sorry, Perito, I know that disappoints
Vuelta 2012 is for the ages
Alberto the crowd anoints
With seven fingers in the air
His count is what he thinks is fair
A race confounding cycling sages
Experts who self-appoint
Graham Jones picked Rodriguez
As did his buddy Sean
Even these total pros can 'times
be proven wrong
Everyone agrees
This race was the bees knees
Looking for more fun this year
Vuelta 2012 leaves much to cheer!

Vuelta a Espana 2012

 Los Tres Amigos
Made Spain proud in this Vuelta
Alberto is back big time!

VUELTA STAGE 20


Contador has won the Vuelta
Menchov took the stage
Richie Porte rode nicely
A good show by Talansky
Rodriquez showed courage
It's tight at the top
For Senor Valverde
A skip and a hop
He'll have to step sharply
To hang on to his spot
Froome will get fourth
Don't you reckon?
The streets of Madrid
will be Berto's coronation
Important as pesos face
devaluation
The Vuelta is great for
Spain as a nation
 Saxo-Bank-Tinkoff 
Has cause for elation
Ditto Spanish team Movistar
Two men in the GC carry hopes far!
The Bola del Mundo
left many a scar
Cyclists who wished they'd climbed by car
Tomorrows' Madrid stage must seem a respite
Cause this years' Vuelta has been a tough fight
The rehabilitation of Albert and Valverde
They can win like champs without playing dirty!
