who is c4ers? what is crooked cog(s) cycling club? c4ers among us who live in twin cities, minnesota. we all are asl signers to led a full social life. we share our same passion in cycling like road ride, mountain bike, cyclocross, velodrome & triathlon. check out another unofficial blog of c4 for more information.

i just rode the track bike on track at the velodrome outside in perfect cool weather last saturday for open training first time since my introductory track class in 2007. i only rode for several laps and decided to call a quit for a day because my my neck is already stiff & sored due to hold the handlebar's handgrip too low for aero position. i will try to ride again next time after my neck get used to recover from.

i mounted both lemond road bike & jamis sonik track bike together on the rack to test driving on highway. i notice the wheel mounted on front rack began to have more vibration than the wheel mounted on rear rack when i drove mini at 60 mph. i decided to put both wheels mounted on rear rack for better draft and less vibration.

btw, you can see in photos why my two bikes scream my name and beg me to ride on them with my teammates c4ers. thank god that i just finished preparing with my tax return last sunday before deadline in april 15th today! that is why i am looking forward to ride with our c4ers this april 18th on saturday for pedal off from the free of stress.

i save best one for the last one (rawland) when it is right time. ;)

cat6 tour of flanders

photos by cuong aka buzz

i am with cat6 for 3 years but i never find the courage to race yet after my incident in 2006. last sunday, i went to the cat6 tour of flanders for a fundraiser for the state fair crit.

i chicken out for not riding with them at noon after little snow. i decided to do some shoots at the riding and event instead of. you can see all photos were done with my sony a900. you perhaps notice a portrait of me. a guy sat by table next to my table & he walked to ask me if he can try it. i handle it to him and he shot to take picture of me. but the rest of all photos are done by me.

my whole camera with grip & lens looks exactly like this one

it was worth for me to invest $ in sony a900 & carl zeiss lenses because photo brought the best out of me to discover the talent & enjoyment to share with people by being able to see beauty in people. have fun to peep at my photos.

photos by cuong aka buzz

spending our time with my wife's family for x-mas in indiana. with my new sony a900 & carl zeiss 85mm f/1.4 gave me pleasure to capture many things in nice bokeh.

btw, my new macbook pro laptop helped me to flow work faster with apple aperture than my old imac computer (crashed & freeze all the time). that is why i get back to blogs.

let these several pictures tell you the story itself enough.
