I should’ve done this entry last Feb. 02, 2010, but I thought I didn’t need to. But constant inquiries about the new Philmofo jersey have prompted me to post this. Here’s a preview of the design of the upcoming Philmofo cycling jersey. No date has been announced as to when this will be available for purchase, [...]

With us on this ride were Ian (fellow Backout Boys member) and his wife. Ian knew we had to adjust to make this day’s ride enjoyable for my wife. Lei, his wife, was just [...]
