Distance
68.31km
Last chance for a bike ride for the year — “Let’s go for an easy ride down to Mordialloc,” says Evan. Yeah, right. He’s been up at 6 am every day for the past three months, clocking up 300km a week and getting faster and faster… I’ve just been sitting around or riding to work! A hot and tiring 68.3km by the time I got home, that would be, um, err… 8,520km for the 2003 calendar year, not counting rides when I didn’t have my odometer with me, or was on another bike, or it just wasn’t working.
Adrian Tritschler's stuff
My website, an agglomerative mess, probably half-eaten by a grue
Vanity site? Technology experiment? Learning tool? Blog? Journal? Diary? Photo album? I could tell you, but then I’d have to kill you…
I experiment. I play. I write and I take pictures. Some of the site is organised around topics, other parts are organized by date, then there’s always the cross-references between them.
Its all been here a fairly long time. Like the papers on my desk, or the books on the bedside table, the pile just grew… and it all grew without much plan or structure. I try not to break URLs, so historical oddities abound.
Long ago it started as a learning experiment with a few static HTML pages, then I added a bit of server-side includes and some very ugly PHP. A hand-built journal/blog on top of that PHP, then a few experiments in moving to various static publishing systems. I’ve never wanted a database-based blogging engine, so over the years I’ve tried PHP, nanoblogger, emacs-muse, silkpage and docbook before settling on Emacs Org mode for writing and jekyll for publishing. But the itch remained… I never really liked jekyll and the ruby underneath always seemed so much black magic. So now the latest incarnation is Org mode and hugo.
