Ah, COVID-19 ... an excuse to sit down and work on my website/blog account.

I had a basic website/blog running for a few years and had it managed by the open-source WordPress tools to easily add/edit while working on the road ... which I've been doing a lot of. Alas ... WordPress accounts always seem to be getting targeted by hacker-jerks and mine got hacked twice while being hosted on my provider's servers. Not feeling it was worth the time on the phone with tech-support, I dumped the whole thing (after saving data locally) and now restarting the "New Era" using my provider's add-on site builder. Hopefully, they can keep this account clean.

​We'll just have to see how this goes.

And, it's a good time to say "buh-bye" to Instagram as well ... just killed that account today. When I retired, I got into the "fun" of social media accounts ... FB, Twitter, Instagram, and even Linked-In ... mostly because it all accelerated my hooking up with bicycle tour-leading gigs. But since I've extracted myself from that interesting yet crazy-ass world, I decided that even IG no longer serves any useful purpose, so all my "social" accounts ... minus Vimeo, and CGOAB ... are now kaput. (Interested in those two? ... email me).

With the COVID-19 outbreak, we're told here in New York State to maintain "social distancing" to help prevent the spread of the pandemic, but "solitary outside exercise" (like bicycling) are OK. Works for me. Out riding!!

Cheers!
