BMW Oracle America's Cup boat is in San Diego
To see BMW Oracle's boat, just head down towards the Convention Center and park. Erin and I parked at Seaport Village. Buy a cookie and they'll validate you for 2 hours. Once you are near the Marina it's pretty easy to find. It's just behind Joe's Crab Shack, but you can see it from a mile away because of it's HUGE mast (185 feet tall). You can get all the boat stats here.
To check out the pics I took click here.
I wish I got a chance to watch it sail. Thank God for YouTube. Skip to the 1:30 mark to see it really sailing.

Great bike repair services in San Diego
So, I went to the trusty internets to find somewhere else and I stumbled upon a cool service. It's called Broken Spoke Mobile Bicycle Repair. You can call or email them and they'll come to your house or office to fix your bike. If it's quick and easy they'll do it right there, or if they need to they'll take it home and bring it back. It's run by a guy named Scott who's very nice and has done a great job both times I called. And the best part is that the price is very reasonable. I think it's even cheaper than the bike shops, plus way more convienent. I highly recommend it.
My second bike shop recommendation is Performance Bicyle in Sorrento Valley. I was riding home today (the scenic way through Del Mar and up Torrey Pines) and my gears were running funny when I was in the small ring for going up hills. It's been a problem since the old shop I visited did some work. By chance I saw Performance Bicycle and decided to stop by to see if they could help at all. It was quickly diagnosed that my chain was too small and in about a minute they took a link out of it. I got to test it going up the Torrey Pines hill (the steep way along the road in the park) and my bike performed great! And they didn't even charge me. I did promise them I'd tell all my friends, though, so now you know!
Get out and get on your bike!
