non-coastal simulacral extravaganza: Exploring

http://nocoastfilms.blogspot.com/2014/04/exploring.html

Films, photographs, cycling, technology, and food enjoyed (mostly) in beautiful nebraska. Must've had thorns somewhere. Miles and miles of dirt. Abandoned house near Dorchester. North face. Note the lack of windows. Back (West) side, with the bridge in the background. This was a couple weeks ago, a much-needed break in the final push to finish my thesis.

Films, photographs, cycling, technology, and food enjoyed (mostly) in beautiful nebraska. What a wonderful experience that was. I miss you, field school. Links to this post. Effecting Change: Why did USAC Restrict One-Day License Availability? The governing body for bike racing in the US made a rule change that negatively impacts occasional amateur racers. In order to participate in many cycling events, riders must purchase a license through USAC. One-day licenses are now $15. Why this is problematic.

non-coastal simulacral extravaganza: October 2013

http://nocoastfilms.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html

Films, photographs, cycling, technology, and food enjoyed (mostly) in beautiful nebraska. First excursion into high desert riding. I have two observations to make about my riding. 1 I learn quickly, especially under self-imposed pressure to keep up with more experienced riders and the help of following said riders' lines and/or advice. 2 I can do so much more than I think I am capable of doing.

non-coastal simulacral extravaganza: August 2013

Films, photographs, cycling, technology, and food enjoyed (mostly) in beautiful nebraska. Links to this post. Czech Days Ride: Unexpected hypothermia. Hit up the Sunday crew Czech Days ride. We got caught in some unexpected heavy rain, and the ensuing wet cold was a shockingly un-Czech Days-like experience. Cold in August in Nebraska. This year really is the reign of the Ice Princess. Wilderness overgrowing the Jamaica Trail. Faces I don't usually ride alongside. I'm doing this right now? I saw the sign.

Films, photographs, cycling, technology, and food enjoyed (mostly) in beautiful nebraska. Rolling out the MoPac with Berly and MW. Hut Two: Electric Bugaloo. Lots of advertisements for Mormon.org. This is 322nd Street. Yup. Street. Platte River tower climb was challenging in cleats. Ran into Stacey and Jeri on their matching Fate 29ers. And stopped to feed apples to their little boys. Glass Church. Beautiful. Crossing back over the Platte. Kimberly Rd. It's like she was still with us. At the cemetery gate.

non-coastal simulacral extravaganza: What is citizenship?

Films, photographs, cycling, technology, and food enjoyed (mostly) in beautiful nebraska. As the deadline to file taxes approaches, think for a minute about what it means for some of your neighbors. One view from Lincoln. When these model non-citizens are responsibly filing their taxes in a country that continues to refuse to recognize them (unless we need their $), what's the point?

non-coastal simulacral extravaganza: Seeing beauty or boring

http://nocoastfilms.blogspot.com/2014/06/seeing-beauty-or-boring.html

Films, photographs, cycling, technology, and food enjoyed (mostly) in beautiful nebraska. Seeing beauty or boring. I had a long drive across Pennsylvania yesterday. It gave me a lot of time to think about this accusation I often hear when introducing myself as being from Nebraska. It goes something like this:. Nebraska. I drove across that once. Thought it would never end. Wow, it was boring.". You get 200 more miles of the same thing! Logical Heating and Plumbing Solutions. 650 apartment for $650. Lo de...
