- Thread starter stevew
- Start date
coffee in hand, below freezing outside, nothing but dialysis runs on the schedule today.....beats the snot out of hanging with the mother in law like yesterday
Hello, you little turkeys. I was up early today to go swim 2000 yards. Now, I am at WORK. You do what ya gotta do. 65 degrees today means I'll be exiting this place in the early afternoon so I can go for a road ride.
BTW I drove by a Best Buy on my way into work this morning and there was a long line waiting to get in. Stupid assholes.
Oatmeal fueling before mtb ride.
Both boys got Kindle Fire Tablet from our friends at. What a device at only $50.

Still. In. Bed.
Coffee. Toast.
Wife felt sick overnight but I didn't. Baby was confused as to why she stopped feeding her all of a sudden. I was enlisted to try to feed and calm the baby. She stared at me with a concerned look ("why am I seeing daddy overnight? this is weird") for a few minutes and then decided it was ok and smiled, after which she went back to sleep.
*sigh*
Off to the airport and back to the real world
Lame.

I love ridgebacks. Very, very protective and pack oriented.
Quick solo ride to flush the toxins.
Another 3-400miles probably needed.
Yelled at by a hiker who was 'scared I was going to hurt myself', yelled at by some dirt roadies who I encountered at the bottom of a blind chute which they were at bottom of as I barreled down, ran over a huge dog shit which spackled my shins and bike.
Hopefully mounting some fresh tires this afternoon. Need to drag my lazy assed kids outside on this amazing 60* day.

It is White Friday for me.
My first days skiing this winter were better than my best two last season & it is still snowing.
prolly hit heavenly later today after(if) the masses thin out & kirkwood tomorrow or sunday.
Visiblity was spooky.

Where do you have enough snow?6* here. Going to rally to take the kids sledding... when it warms up a degree or two.
We are going to head up to Myers Ranch...
Skates sharpened. New Laces installed. New stick all taped up. Ridemonkey DH Jersey is clean. Tired I am...
consider any small hill, maybe over by the dog park?
also think about how you're going to dial back her steeze, or she'll likely be flipping and jibbing everything in sight.
Also keep in mind that anything which hasn't been groomed is going to suck ass for any beginner skiing other than french fries.
and what would a 3-4 year old know about groomed snow.....just asking...
Well out here lots of 3-4yo's are often very well versed in groomed snow skiing.
My point is that snow at a park will likely be VERY difficult to do any actual skiing on for a little kid. Other than going straight down the hill and then crashing.

You know...I agree. Stoney - take her to any park and shove her down the hill.what does not kill them makes them stronger...
just put a helmet on the rug rat.You know...I agree. Stoney - take her to any park and shove her down the hill.
Anyone still riding bikes? We had unseasonably hot upper 60s today which was a shock for my feeble body that is now adopted to lower 30s. I had a good technical solo ride, then panko crusted pork chops (fried cheese for wifey) and now sipping Sculpin.
Still riding here.
It has been raining here since last night. No worries though, still went and rode. Surprisingly, I wasn't covered in mud head to toe. Some did make it inside of my jacket though...
It was literally me and one other hiker in entire forest today. I put on some music (yeah I know, trail etiquette...) and cruised all the trails.
I am pretty sure I need a new chain, judging from the grinding sound it now makes.
Ardents didn't let me down today. Note how clear of the wet mud they are.
The dork logger says that today was my 103rd ride this year. Not bad for only starting to ride in July and for being a phattymcphat.

It is a Czech traditional dish, too: http://bingcookingsecrets.com/czech-style-fried-pork-shops/
I just wish the pork here had as much fat and flavor as in my home country.
