Love: Sleeping
Hate: Not being able to
Love: Life is grand as long as it's not cold outside. Seriously, cold is the only thing on Earth that bothers me. As long as it's warm, nothing can go wrong, even when I get 3 flats in one day riding tubulars.
When it's cold outside, I'm the worst ogre ever.

I love...
My daughter(s); my extended family(sis's); riding; the printed word; temps, 55-79F; sitting in the shade with a gentle breeze drying the sweat off me, drinking a chilled green tea or gatorade; feeling my back pop 'back into place'; my sister's cooking; there's more, but....
I hate:
Getting off the bike to go into work; work; not getting paid enough to do my work; idiot drivers; snow/ice; the riding cost of living; there's more, but....

no money to make a 1/4 pipe,
If you're going to use wood on that 1/4 pipe, consider looking around demolition sites. I've thrown out enough 2x's and plywood to make hundreds or perhaps thousands of half or quarter pipes. Nothin wrong with scavenging from an open top roll off dumpster if you look out for sharp stuff. Plus, if you ask the workers while they're there, rather than wait till they leave and take it anyway, most of the time they'll give you the stuff, since it costs money to throw out.

Seriously, I hope I'm not offending anyone living in California with my comments. It's just that 3 out of 4 times when you meet a real toss off around here, they are from So Cal.
