Jacob joined the ABA and had his first official night of racing out at Yukon BMX Raceway. Jacob had a blast and it brought back a lot of great memories for me as well! Jacob waiting at the starting gate Racing With A Friend Practice Run Waiting to Race Fast Start Last Turn

One of the items I’ve been really wanting to upgrade on my bike was the bars and stem. After much research and waffling, I finally decided on the Sunline V One All Mountain Stem (65mm) paired with the Easton EA70 Monkey Bar (mid-rise). Now that I’ve finally decided on a stem, I need to trim my fork steerer tube.

If you know us, you know how much we love Lego. Jacob recently got a Pirates of the Caribbean set (4192) and Meya added to her Belville collection (7587). Here are a few photos.

I recently came across a boilerplate for HTML email. I thinks a good way to learn some of the intricacies of HTML email design and how to avoid some of the rendering problems with sending this type of email. I’m looking forward to studying this doc even further.
