Loving Kathleen Edwards’ new album Billionaire. I’ve had it on repeat for a few hours. So, so good. If you like Americana, Alt-Country, Folk Rock, and the like, this is your jam.

Check it out on your preferred streaming service—or better yet, pick up her album at your local record store.

Can’t believe this was already one week ago. Lantern Floating Hawai‘i is a beautiful, heartfelt event hosted by the Shinnyo-en Buddhist Church. It is inclusive of all faiths.

Watch the event in its entirety: www.youtube.com/live/8nSycQy...

De Cecco is made in Italy, and tastes better than Barilla.

Also, not sure if you shop Costco and if they have this brand in their Canadian locations (as well as have a Canadian distributor), but I just picked this organic stuff that’s also made in Italy for pretty cheap.

Tailwinds, Al Trautwig. He was the host of ABC’s Tour de France coverage in the late 80s and part of the 2000s in the US.

Quite the collection of signed cycling jerseys at our friends’ restaurant Terun in Palo Alto. Among them: Bob Roll, Maurizio Fondriest, Laurens ten Dam, Ryder Hesjedal, and Francesco Moser #51151.

I watch the Blues every year in San Francisco, so we can usually count on the humidity to come through f for us—just so long as Karl the Fog doesn’t show up.

Here’s a shot of the second solo during the sneak pass from last October’s show.

FDJ-Suez on Specialized bikes has to be one of the worst kept secrets in pro cycling this year.
