Cycling with my wife

I don't really want to turn this into a cycling blog, but so far, it almost looks like that is the direction I'm headed.

Don't worry, I'll still keep everyone updated on the gaming and coding in my life, but cycling will now just be a part of my blogging, as much as it is now a part of my life.

Including Sunday, I must have done about 60km's on the bicycle this week.

Believe me though, compared to some of the people out there, it's nowhere as much as you think. Still, it is an impressive looking number For me at least.  read more »

Fitness Games

By now, you should know that I am a big proponent for games that take gamers beyond the physical exercise of twiddling their thumbs.

I love games like DDR and DrumMania which make you do a little more than just sit on the couch while playing.  read more »

Endorphins pumping!

Man, I feel good!

Remember earlier this week when I told you that I would cycle to work on Friday?

Well, self-fulfilling prophecies aside, I did it, and I feel amazing!

I left the house at about 5:35 AM and I arrived safely at my destination at about 6:40AM. Not bad for a 15km cycle.

I've taken a shower at the company gym now and I am ready to jump into the day's work.

For those geeks out there who feel they need a bit of exercise? Cycling is an amazing, low-impact, cardio-based sport.

Might be a bit expensive to jump into, but once you have the basics like a bicycle, a helmet and some safety lights, the road (and sidewalks!) are all yours.

Fitness and the Geek

Yes I can I am not old.

I still play computer games. I enjoy a competitive game of cricket or soccer as much as the next guy. I like playing games with the nieces and nephews and should someone challenge me to a race (running or cycling), I'll probably accept no matter how badly I will lose.

I'm also not young either.

I'm two years away from turning the ripe old age of 30.  read more »
