i finally bought myself a playstation as i was browsing the games isle surrounded by 12 year old boys i had this thought: would it be just too nerdy of me to buy a mountainbike video game?
i'm envious of all the trackies out there. looks like the christmas season started right for you folks. i personally took another spill on the streetcar tracks and am now bitter. just sayin.

MTB game yes!
Spill on tracks no :(
Hope you're OK.. I just got back in from a ride out east to a buddies place, lovely tailwind going, had some pretty shocking gusts on the way back though. Other than the patches of former rain/meltwater being iced over it was OK though, I just took it incredibly easy in places that looked iffy - having gone down Friday night I didn't want a repeat :)
+1 to track envy too :p
Happy Christmas Eve!

W3rd up from the east side, yo. After a lovely tailwind over here again, yay :D
I'd love to come to the track, though I guess I'm needing to do #1 first though.
Have a good night and a great day tomorrow for those of us who do the crazy Christmas thang :)
Mmmmm, scotch would be a lovely thing right now, I've been supping on port most of the day and now all I have available to me is some mango Malibu.. hooray for booze :p

Just back from Sarnia. Good times. That bottle of Glengoyne you guys got me was most excellent in the hot tub...cheers for that. 2hrs a day in the tub and I am looser than creamed corn. Got Family Guy box Volume 5....that completes the set.
Excellent day at the FCV. The props from Brian on the easy session for him and the skill of our group was a nice end to the visit. We need to get back there STAT!...keep the drills fresh and get a B.F. paceline goin.
Anyone out and about ridin' today? Gonna get out later if anyone wants to hook up for a hot beverage.

mounted some oury grips on to my commuter after tearing my nice cork grips in a fall now i have glue all over my hands. reminds me of the scene in christmas vacation where chevy chase is reading a magazine after cutting down a xmas tree and the pages are sticking to it because his hands are covered in sap. you see what i did there!?...bikes...christmas...i'm on topic!
i contemplated riding down to the amterdam brewery as it seems to be the only place to buy beer today. still contemplating it...

I too successfully escaped Sarnia - yaaay!
So Keith, my mom told me that there's apparently an ex-Toronto messenger working at The Bicycle Shop on Front Street in Sarnia (Sarnia's only bike shop). Any idea who that might be?

Why is it that coming across some long-lost whoever on Flickr is so much less creepy than it is on Facebook?
I got a van for Christmas! Well, not really but my folks are off to floreda for the winter and I get to have it while they're gone. SO... I have transportation for myself and 6 others to track 2/3 :)
