Just got this new board from Tim Bessell. I hope it surfs as good as it looks. I have another one that I love, but it’s getting a little worn. I had Tim put on a new soft top which is a great invention. Same board, but with a soft…

King Tides Open Up the Tide Pools
A few times a year, the King Tides come to La Jolla. Just north of the Scripps Pier is an outcropping of lava rocks that are usually under water. However, when the tide goes out, the tide pools form. They are filled with starfish and sometimes octopus. The lighting today was perfect and I took…

Eliud Kipchoge’s Two Hour Marathon in Vienna
I was taking a bike tour of Vienna when our tour guide suggested we take a bit of detour. We soon found ourselves riding along a barricaded path. Signs were posted all over, and kilometer markers were set every kilometer. Our guide informed us that Kipchoge was going to try to break the two hour…
