Today I did the 25-km round trip downtown to the comic store, picking up 3 weeks' worth of comics (5 books) and getting in a substantial bike ride for the first time over that 3-week stretch. Now that I'm no longer doing a weekly spin class, I really feel it when I get back onto the road after a layoff like that. I can only imagine what it's going to be like in the spring when I've had several months off...
Anyway, today was a beautiful day for it: 10 C, sunny with a moderate amount of wind to cool me down whenever I needed it. I don't know if I'll get any more opportunities before the snow comes for good, but if today was the final ride of 2015, at least it was a really good one.
A blog site for Kimota94 (that's me) to use for topics that interest me. Those topics originally included: comic books, Major League Baseball, the music and genius of Peter Gabriel and Magnolia Electric Company, the odd work-related topic like Agile Project Delivery, and any other little thing that comes to mind on any given day. Lately, it's mostly been that last one!

Six Months Til Captain America: Civil War
I'm ridiculously excited about the May 6th debut of Captain America: Civil War. I really liked the first Cap film, and then absolutely loved Winter Soldier, so I've probably got unrealistically high expectations about CW but I can't help it... Captain America, when done right, has always been one of my favourite comic book characters, dating all the way back to him being in the first comic I remember buying. So how can I not be jazzed that the next installment is now only half a year away?
