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

M.E.'s avatar is seriously hot. :love:

:rolleyes: Have you been drinking already this morning, Jason? You are too funny. But speaking of avatars, I love yours. I hated that head of lettuce. ;)

There's something about the feel of the rubber sliding on that puts a smile on a man's face...:D

And a woman's...:D

Cabbage, woman! Cabbage.


/lettuce? This ain't Kentucky, lady.

You would like the head of anything...

As long as it's juicy and nutritious.

I think lettuce and cabbage are comparable in nutrition and suprisingly, both have their benefits (contrary to popular belief). Iceberg has tons of folate in it, so it is not void of nutrition as everyone assumes. Yes, dark greens are better, but don't just throw away the iceberg thinking it has nothing in it. Cabbage is nutrient dense, actually, especially the purple cabbage which has tons of antioxidants in it.

But why is it so gassy?

TMI ????

Well, any cruciferous vegetable has gas-promoting qualities to it. Here, Happy, this might help you:

But why is it so gassy?


Yet another benefit.

brocoli does it to me...and i am a very non gassy person...i don't burp or fart...julie thanks it's great...i think it's weird that everyone i know does it and i don't much at all..

Yet another benefit.

In what way... propulsion?

That tidbit of knowledge is about as useful as knowing the average length of a blue whale's dork.

is it going to be another wikipedia day?


is that yours?

wrong :rolleyes: In my lifetime, I have most certainly put my mouth on the head of both cabbage and lettuce - not so much on the head of a dork.

Unless you count that jerk I dated back in...

Don't be too sure...your bed is probably an EZ Bake Oven at night.


Gas builds, pressure builds, and it all has to escape somewhere at sometime. Nobody is gas-free.


I-I-I know you like ta think your sh!t don't stink
But lean a little bit closer
See that roses really smell like poo-poo

i am not saying that i don't have gas sometimes...but i am not the kinda guy that sits around and rips em'...i think it's disrespectful...i also don't really burp in public...just wasn't raised that way.

In the SD La Jolla area, the fog this morning was better than yesterday's. Did 25 miles today with my bro-in-law following the SDBC C- route.

Going to take tomorrow off and do a longer ride. Thinking of going down south this time along Mission Beach, and back up to LJ via Mt Soledad... something like that.

Try La Jolla Mesa up Soledad.

:rolleyes: Have you been drinking already this morning, Jason?

No, I haven't been drinking. Last alcoholic drink was on Sunday with cuda2k and happyfeet.

That pic makes me want to find a way to steal you away from the others at the next group ride so that I may wrap my paws around you to hold you tight, caress your soft skin, nap propped against your waarrrmmmm

It's a little known fact that the face of boxing nun puppets is actually that of Margaret Thatcher. I know this because one of my sons disasssembled his puppet and there she was, creepy hair and all. It was terrible. We are still paying for therapy.

Just finished a 6'er of Stone Levitation yesterday...will burrow my way into a case of Shiner Bock tonight.

Are you sure he needed the therapy afterwards?

I mean, what kind of kid wants to look underneath the habit of a nun puppet... ?!

ohh ohh....i love shiner bock...the first time i got hammered on that was in Abu dabi...


good times...

All of them?

Ah... My lack of parenting experience and natural aversion to all things children becomes blindingly apparent!

Just finished a 6'er of Stone Levitation yesterday....

I stopped at the Stone Brewery after the Palomar ride and they said that they have been messing around with the recipe for the last few years, but that this year's is the one they will stick with for a while...

I also got a 3 liter bottle filled up with Arrogant *******... that way I have something to be thankful for during Thanksgiving dinner...

In stock, at a Vons near you.

:roflmao:
:beer:

I should fill up my 2 liter with something special for the occasion. I'm a sucka for Smoked Porter, but I reckon I'll be the only one drinking it. And I'm pretty sure 2L of that grog will strike me stupid.

Upskirts are universal and non-ageist. Church!~

glad you found the place OK, the roads are new so not on all maps yet.

Ride your bike there and fill up you bottles for the ride home!

The 2L Growler doesn't quite fit into a bottle cage. But I like your thinking.

I can walk there in 2 minutes from my work......beer = bad for me right now:(

Try La Jolla Mesa up Soledad.Hmm, not sure how to add it as an uphill climb.

How about something like this (counter-clockwise)?
http://www.bikely.com/maps/bike-path/Test187445

Starts near UC Cyclery
- thru UCSD to La Jolla Shore Dr
- descend into Torrey Pines Rd
- thru LJ downtown
- up Nautilus to Mt Soledad
- down LJ Mesa into Mission Blvd
- thru Seaworld, then eastbound into Fiesta Island
- a loop or two on Fiesta Island
- up Mission Bay Dr, Santa Fe St
- bike path up into Gilman Dr and back to start

BTW, the above route selection is baseless. I just want to do "a loop near the ocean".

Thanks! :)

If you went clockwise you could go up La Jolla Mesa. You need to turn right on La Jolla Scenic to get all the way up to the cross. Then you could descend on Nautilus. Just a thought. You could also go up via Cardeno. I haven't done that so you can give your report. ;)

Cool! Is northbound/reverse LJ Shore Dr doable? Other than that, my only concern is the Seaworld area if the route is reversed. Can we ride in those circular, freeway ramp looking roads on Seaworld Dr/Ingraham/Mission Bay Dr?

It's navigable in either direction. Kind of hard to explain, but it will be evident when you're there.

Ok, thanks!

Total of 31 miles or so; which is shorter than what my bro-in-law wants. But it does satisfy his "ocean side cycling" requirement + 2 rear loaded climbs (Soledad and LJ Shore). :D

I wish I could go ride. I'm so stressed right now, and I may have to work on Friday. :cry:

PGSWWFY.

I see what you did there.

I've been saying he deserves it for a year.

what is the deal with the brewery ride, anyway?

:eek: Jason, you need...um...a PGSWWFY. :D

a Pringles Gulping Sailor Who Washes French Yachts? Why would Jason want one? He doesn't own a yacht.

http://www.hollywoodtoday.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/07/seinfeld-is-sort-of-back.jpg

Indeed, what brewery ride?

No, no, no...a Pringles Gulping Sailor Who Watches Frozen Yams...and we all know Jason has a stash of frozen yams that he needs help watching.
