Southern California - So Cal needs a long thread "What's Up?" type thread!

Woah... an hour ago, aprilm's connecting flight was shown as being on time. Half an hour ago, it was 45 minutes delayed. Then aprilm text messaged me to inform me they're on time. And now they're showing as on time again. This is so confusing.

haha southpark emo's

I think I'm going to go study tomorrow...hrmmmm

Good Morning! Time to wake up, everyone!

Good morning!

Just came back from my company's annual party. Good food and pretty fun.

Being a good boy, I'm now going to sleep at such an early hour. :D

Good morning SoCal.

Still raining here, although very light now.

Yup, tapering off here, too. :)

Gonna be a nice day for a ride

It's still pretty steady here in SO. :( I'm going to get dressed and head south...

excitment nerves? I mean, I know you're hitched technically, but this is the formal occassion, so it can be a little nerve wrecking. Have fun, Jeff! :)

Good morning SoCal.

Good morning, Jason! :) Is April here already?

Morning all. I wonder how much it rained. This must mean my road bike is jealous.

Good morning, Jason! :) Is April here already?

There must be an April showers joke in here somewhere.

Good luck with the wedding Jeff! :D :beer:

It's clearing up in LA. I think I'm riding my bike into work this morning. I'm just opening shop and working a couple of hours til my wife shows up.

Still raining here. If it doesn't stop soon I'm bailing on the SDBC ride.

It's just water!

Jeff:

Rain? Ironic, dontcha think?

/Morissette.


Actually, rain on your wedding day is a blessing. It symbolizes the cleansing of your former lives and purifies the both of you in preparation for your life together. Congratulations, buddy. May this bring eternal happiness for your family.

Candyass.

Who said that? Did someone come in? Who?

Early congrats to you, Jeff. It's going to fly by before you even know it - just don't lock your knees and pass out!

This is lame. I've been waiting all week to ride my MTB, and now it rains. Bluh. I only like it when it rains when I have to be indoors. Like when I'm sleeping, or at work.

Apparently I'm a candyass, what's your problem?

I think I'm bailing on the SDBC ride as well. Just a slight drizzle now, but I just woke up and didn't prep my bike. :p


Have fun Jeff!!! :D

IMBA frowns on riding wet, muddy trails (they say ride on open trails only too, but I don't always follow that). Besides, my skin is delicate. Mud will upset its pH.

Mud is good for you skin! ;)

Just too much hassle to clean the bike. That's how I got rusty chains on my road bike since I was lazy and waited a day or 2 before cleaning it after a wet ride. :(

The last time I rode in mud I ended up using more than half of whatever liquid I had in my Camelbak to clear all the muck around the brakes so I can continue riding. This was pre-disc days....:D

I've had to carry the bike out due to mud build up.
3-4 miles of walking with the bike over the shoulder.:mad:

Mud is Ok in limited amounts, it does rip up the trails so I attemp to not ride when
damage could occur to the trail.

Slowly clearing up. I may go out on my old Trek, now designated as the "Rain Bike" aka "Drizzle Bike"

Good morning all. :)
No riding for me this weekend so will be getting things done around here.

To all the MS150 riders - have fun, good luck and be safe!

Jeff, congratulations to you on your wedding day... remember to enjoy the time with friends and family as it seems to go by so fast!

great ride today, social and chill.

Met some cool people, Pena, Adina, and Phil.

Shai is hilarious to ride w/

Skipped the ride this morning and now I'm stuck at work. :cry:

On the bright side, I did drop by my lbs and picked up Spec insoles... feels better at the store but no actual rides with them yet.

Nice morning for a ride! Cool and dry.

ME and I got up close and personal with some men in uniform. Well, I got up closer and even more personal, with the cop pulling me over with sirens wailing and lights flashing. My bad... I ran the stop sign on the corner. Yup, the very same stop sign I warn others about! :rolleyes:

Nice easy spin, only one double-digit climb, keeping the legs fresh for tomorrow. :D

pictures?

I have a few pics, but Happy has to approve them first. I can't wag my finger at her (although she DOES look trim in all of her pics) since I don't want any of me posted until I drop 20 pounds! But as soon as she approves, I'll post a couple.

I have a great up close pic of her fluffy, warm, moist, fruit-filled "hole." :)

Ok I'm over it

I'm very fat. :( I'll be 5 water-weight-pounds lighter in three days though. :o

It started out to be a crummy day, biking-wise, raining off and on all morning. I thought my weekend ride was toast. But then around 10:30, it cleared up a bit. The weather was perfect and I felt great. I actually set a personal record for the first 2 hours, including a bathroom break and traffic lights - 40.7 miles. I know that's nothing for you youngsters, but for a 59 year old like me, that felt pretty good. The remainder of the trip I took it easy, saying hello to oodles of MS riders who were passing through Carlsbad and Encinitas. Next year I'm going to go on that with my 22 year old nephew. A block away from home I got a flat. If you're going to get one, that's where to do it I guess. I did much less than my usual 75 miler, at 56 miles, but it was still a great day for biking!

Any of you MS riders -- if you saw a blue lwb bent between Oside and Encinitas, that was probably me. :)

Ok I'm over it

:)

Good. Life is too short and miserable for you to be miserable this soon. :)

I'm very fat. :( I'll be 5 water-weight-pounds lighter in three days though. :o

sounds like a broken record ...

where the hell can I ask this question? lol I dont even know where to START~!!The pool question? Try the yellow pages under Health Clubs. Also the city where you live may have a pool.

the wedding today was AWESOME!!! Other then the weather changed it from an outdoor event to indoor which turned out really nice as well. No joke that $hit went by FAST!!!!

I'm at the in laws house, waiting for the rest of the family to get here to open the gifts!!!

Congrats Jeff!! Yes it's amazing how quickly the day flies by you.....

I had a less than stellar day :( I got a relapse last night and ended up going to the ER this morning. Got some lab tests done, and they pumped 2.5 liters of IV into me.
