An introduction

I doubt anyone finds this - but in case you are wondering. I am

1. A professional environmentalist. I spend my working hours helping a well-known environmental organization use data effectively.

2. Just entering the world of bicycle touring. I hope to gear up for some good-sized rides over coming years.

3. The fact that my work is pretty tied to the US election cycle means that summers of even-numbered years are bad candidate times for a week or more out of the office - so for the foreseeable future - this blog will be more about training or long-weekend trips then about major rides.

4. The new owner of a 1999 Haluzak Horizon - which will at least serve as my initial trainer.

5. Almost certainly, one of the world's most reluctant writers - so do not expect a lot of updates on here soon.
