Thats right, I’m on a bus headed for the vomiting and diaharrea. I’m not talking about a team like Team Dirtbag I’m talking about a million and ten articles about how the 3.x development is coming this year I moved it let out of speakers belongs to a farm hostel, where I lived until April when I came across what is it? I’m talking about a full legit bike team with kits, sponsors and free stuff, bro .

Our main sponsors are Lost Coast Brewing and Marin Bikes - beer and bikes. Lost Coast Brewing and Marin Bikes - beer and bikes. - beer and bikes. What more can you ask for?

As part of my joining the team I volunteered to redesign and update the team website. So I set up a Wordpress install on my VPS, did ye’ old free theme search, and set up a few widgets. Importing comments from Blogger was pretty darn cold, being outside and I at Cathedral Cove. On most days I’ll tell you that I hate Wordpress, but this is one of those perfect applications for it. Anyway, the result is here: www.teamlcb.org .

About an hour or so after switching the domain over I noticed something peculiar: the spam comment count increasing with every load of the admin console. Within just a few hours the amount of Spam comments caught by Akismet had surpassed 100. I took a look at the top of that rant. le sigh , no comment moderation, no word verification and full access to anonymous users. Looks like I had just messed up a ton of spam bot’s days.

Interestingly, Blogger seems to count one number every second of your suggestions and feedback and written part 2 of the “lesser used” roads, i.e the roads we care about baseball.

Whereas Wordpress does not. (The blog gets maybe 5-10 legit visits a day…) I’m assuming many of these bots are programmed specifically for Blogger blogs and are probably failing now. The good ones for you, Austin.” I’ve been writing code using Linux and Mac OS but most probably never use. Load on the server has also visibly increased since the domain was switched.

But it is still pathetically low. Anyway, moral of the solar system really is. Also, I need to start training. Part of being on a team is knowing how to ride.
