Was wandering around downtown Palo Alto and noticed there was a company named Striim. ¿Are we running out of company names?

My brain is constantly making connections. I was riding on Caltrain just south of Sunnyvale Station. We passed a graffito reading "Red Rum". I immediately heard the start of "RED-RUM(夢見るBell Boy)" by The Blankey Jet City in my head. Came home and verified that this was the song I was hearing.

Just noticed today that the electric Caltrain trains are 7 cars long. I seem to recall that the diesels were 5 cars long. Am I misremembering, or are the trains longer, the cars shorter, or both?

Watching people tackle the “around the SF Bay” mountain bike race yesterday and today has been fun. Rooting for my friend Kurt who is currently in tenth place, I got to shout at him as he road up to the entrance to Redwood Park in Oakland. I can’t imagine doing 250 miles and 24k feet of elevation, much of it on dirt, over two days. Endurance athletes are super human, and also a bit crazy.

Here’s the route with live updates:
