Actually there are some similarities. I used to be 'called' to go to mountain tops and was given a staff-like object to get the job done. But instead of tablets of wisdom, the result was a couple of hours of shoveling snow off the ski patrol building's upper deck. (Any of you cowboys - or cowgirls - ever do any tail-roping? Hint: burly cycling thighs are an asset)

Mental illness is a miserable thing, but thank goodness it's not contagious.
I try to hang on to what's important while I can = my longtime hobbies.
Who really knows what tomorrow brings, maybe new direction for my soul and things....

Most recent pic of me with bike. Sorry about the not exactly vintage bike, although the stem, bars, and front wheel are from the '80s

I use a postimage.org to host pictures, the site offers the option of resizing pictures when uploading. Upload a group of pictures at one time, select the size desired for the resizing and then just copy and paste the link in forum posts.

No worries Les, plenty of C+V cred IMHO with the Lemond, quill stem, square taper crank? and previous Moto experience. It's all good! And you should have a good look at Hambone's Moto, it's a beauty.

@sjanzeir Is the weather more temperate this time of year in Saudi Arabia or is it still quite hot? It is always nice to see riders in other parts of the world.
