roughdraft.io for blogging

I like the look of roughdraft.io for automatically rendering my Github Gists as a blog at http://lukego.roughdraft.io/.

I'd prefer to use my own name in the URLs though, so that links aren't permanently dependent on roughdraft.io. (There's a lot of churn in my blog infrastructure life, it seems.) I tried a little Apache config to make http://blog.lukego.com/6634948 display the content of http://lukego.roughdraft.io/6634948:

ProxyPassMatch ^(/[0-9]*)$ http://lukego.roughdraft.io$1

but for some reason the browser is redirecting to the roughdraft URL instead of letting apache transparently proxy. I wonder why.
