Before I went to the X-miler training ride, I went hiking with my Northern Tier crew on the Almaden Quicksilver Trail, carrying a 45 lb. pack to train for the portaging sections of Northern Tier.

Test Preparation
Here are test study guides and review questions for a variety of tests that face the average high schooler. I provide them to you in the hopes that you will buy them if you actually use them.

X-Miler Practice Ride
This past Sunday, I went on an X-Miler practice ride with my troop. We went for a 30-mile ride to Stanford and back, and about 20-30 people went. I got to test out my road bike in actual conditions, and it was very relaxing, since the road had no hills to speak of. We averaged a speed about 10-15 MPH there and 20-25 MPH back. At the end, we had a BBQ dinner at Rainbow Park.

Robocode
As many of you know, Robocode is the second semester Java final. While you can probably get away with a 2000 byte robot that uses circular movement and linear targeting, I expect some of you to do much better. To encourage this, I am displaying the source code of LightningBug here, in the hopes that you will learn something and use GuesFactor Targeting or WaveSurfing (even though this one doesn’t).
