About This Site
Welcome to thespokenwheel.com, my somewhat cycling related web site. I use this site to blog about all of the things that interest me so it might seem like the content is all over the place sometimes. Cycling, life, news, music, and geekier things like Textpattern plugins and other bits of code are all game here. There is also a section devoted to the shirt designs I’ve been creating. Those designs are all cycling related, so all of you fellow cyclists should check them out.
Below you’ll find links to sites of my friends and family, as well as my most recently bookmarked songs from Pandora. I also list all of the Textpattern plugins I am using on this site. The authors put a lot of work into their plugins (including me), so I figured it was the least I could do to mention them in some little way.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy this site. If you’d like to contact me feel free to send me an email.
