Roste Jeanne

2/5. A beer to celebrate the history of a woman burned at the stake, but it didn’t set me alight.

Happy New Year: it’s 2007!

St Bernardus 12 Abt

5/5. Peppery and woody with a touch of plums, there’s also plenty of nuts, caramel and even a bit of salty licorice in there.

Hello you, I'm Mike Padgett. I'm not a Princeton curator, Knoxville mayoral candidate, Kentuckian pastor or Arizona journalist, I just share the same name. In fact, I am a consultant working in user experience and information design.

I also enjoy travel, concerts, films and walking.

I'm originally from Yorkshire, England but nowadays I live in Belgium. My current favourite Belgian beer is Black Albert.

Shameless self-promotion

Over a year in the making, Dopeology.org is my latest personal project: a topology of doping in thirty years of European pro road cycling.

I collected information from thousands of sources, then I modelled and published it via a lightweight user interface.
