 November 9, 2025


Dear TeamToddTBI,


I am still flying my bike: “https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ushoyzTcie2Ogd07A2KXapk9fq3gbgIw/view?usp=sharing” Not shown are my two latest failures – KLNN to KCLE and KLNN to KAFJ. KLNN is in Willoughby, Ohio. I lived in apartment adjacent to KLNN after I moved from Hampton, Virginia. By adjacent, I mean I could keep my left foot on airport property and my right foot on the apartment complex property simultaneously if a fence was not there.


My favorite sister came home this weekend (starting on Friday). Libby cooked dinner for us on Friday night and joined TEAMTODD, completing the Scarecrow 5KWalk/ Run today. Libby also helped rake the yard, and helped Mom with food preparations for the lunch after the Scarecrow event.


I completed the 1 mile walk at the UMBC campus. After completing the walk, I longed for a quiet space.


After lunch here at our house, I showed my cycling habit to Scarecrow participants Debbie Cheung, her sister Pam, and Libby’s friend Meredith, and others.


The Hokies did not lose a football game this weekend. This was guaranteed – their opponent did not even show up.


I continue to work on an improved version of software to convert a bike into a joystick. I am relearning how to program in C. I now can read and use data from Wahoo sensor mounted to a spinning wheel on a truing stands.


St. Luigi, Thank you for your intercession. St. Carlo Acutis, pray for us.


Hello TEAMTODD! WHEW!!! Once again WE did it!!!! This was our 10th year of participating in the Scarecrow Classic 5k 1 Mile Fun Run. TeamTodd had 22 participants. One other team tied with us with the number of participants. No other team had more participants. After 10 years of participation, TeamTodd is well known. We are the only team with an official sign and it is the same sign that has served us well for these 10 years.


Five of TeamTodd participants placed in their age groups! YAY!!!!


We arrived home about 12 pm and hustled to put out lunch for 15. It all worked out WELL. But, the day is over, the tables and chairs are put back in their places, dishes have been washed, leftovers have been sent home with those who want them and needless to say, I am not cooking tonight.


Pam and Debbie took lots of pictures of the event and maybe by next week we will post a few.


Todd did well BUT was bothered by the “noise”. That noise was from the chatter of other participants and supporters. Of course, the race was outdoors BUT we all met inside in a huge commons: So think about all the conversations that were going on… I am sure Todd will sleep well tonight as we ALL well.


Thank You, TeamTodd for your continued interest and support.
