I found Jeff's route in the old thread. I PMed him to confirm the parking. All that's left is the date. How about 12/22 or 23?

Gene Autry's "Here Comes Santa Claus" always makes me happy.

I hate Christmas and Christmas music and Christmas presents and Christmas decorations and...


...I was the kid who always loved "When the Grinch Stole Christmas" (the cartoon, of course, not Jim Carey's *******ization of it) and I sided with the Grinch up until he took the presents and crap back to Whosville.

Rotten Whos.

My friend Jackie (aka CRB) wants to do the 50 miler at Solvang as her first "organized" ride event. And some of my Tri-club friend are planning to do the Solvang Century for Ironman Arizona training. So...looks like I'm going to Solvang in March.

It was brought to my attention that the inital joke might be perceived as insulting to Jason. I want it to be clear, that I meant that in no way as an insult to that young man. It really was just me teasing him based on his post about frustration. I sincerely hope that no one would think me putting him down in any way.

Jason, I apologize if that offended you. I'm removing it. Will the rest of you who posted back to it remove your posts as well.

Thanks. :o

So may I steal you away from Patsy for one day to cuddle with? I promise I've carefully studied (http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?p=3203564#post3203564)...

I don't use a cell phone when exercising.
I won't wear white socks pulled up to my calves.
I don't smoke.
I won't slurp or suck on your face.
I won't leave visible hickies.
I don't bleach my teeth, so no risk of over-bleaching.
I won't pinch your nipples in a death grip.
I don't own any cologne, so no risk of overdoing it.
I treat servers, clerks, etc. well.

I'll even agree to candlelight as the appropriate level of mood lighting.

Trying to lose some poundage so I've been eating these Weight Watchers/Lean Cuisine things. The Baked Chicken was gross. I tossed the tray and just ate my salad. But I had the Butternut Squash Ravioli for lunch and it wasn't bad.

Wouldn't you be in a huge caloric deficit with so much exercises and lack of food intake?

I find I lack energy on the bike if I don't eat enough the days before.

The only way that you are going to be able to lose some poundage is by taking of your clothes... Sasha is light enough already, and there has never been any excess on you...

How much does body paint weigh?

Seriously, my "fighting weight" is 107-108 and I have to get back down to it. My new team kit is mostly white. :eek:

I'll spin to "test" out the leg again. It's wet out here so I'm sure Sacha will be covered in gunk within a mile or two! Have fun at the gym. :D

You need help with the weight thing cause where you need to lose, honestly, is in your overactive brain. The fat cells there are inhibiting your perception. :rolleyes:

You have fun spinning and be careful on the wet bike path. Hope your leg feels better.
