What is ideal? A long (4 or 5 hour) bike ride along the Colorado Front Range followed up with some of my favorite carbonated nourishment is an ideal day in my book. And apparently Wout van Aert had an ideal day too—at this year’s edition of Strade Bianche when he soloed in for the win in the final 13 kilometers. With a broken wheel and 5 punctures, Julian Alaphilippe most certainly did not have an ideal day. So what’s ideal when […]
Ah, change. It’s not just the late David Bowie’s manifesto for (among other things) the frequency of change in the world today. Change is something to be embraced and utilized for growth.

With all this stuff going on, family spread across the country, work (grateful to be with NetApp), and much more, some downtime would suit me just fine. There’s only so much Netflix and reruns of Belgian cyclocross races in Flemish one can watch, and I need […]
I am in the cloud—several clouds actually. I’m also on the premises. I guess that makes me hybrid multicloud. My family and I like being able to access our photos, music, podcasts, and such from wherever we are on whatever device we happen to be using at the moment. We value the agility that the […]
44 seconds. Depending on your perspective, 44 seconds can feel like an eternity or seem to speed by in an instant. For example: In 2016, 44 seconds was all Texas A&M needed to put together the biggest last-minute comeback in NCAA Division I history. To Northern Iowa, those last 44 seconds were an eternity. […]
