so does anyone else go on a ride just to get food?
i rode across town to get a samosa. in taipei it is really an unusual event to eat indian food and i went all across town to get one stinking samosa and the shop was closed when i got there.

On a happier note, mrs datlas has given me a pass to ride today. It's been awhile since I have has a two ride weekend. Today's weather outlook is calm and temps a good 10-15 degrees warmer than yesterday.
I am hoping these improved conditions will bring some riders out of the woodwork, yesterday it was just me and my Dutch clubmate. Those Dutch cyclists are badass. At least based on my n of 1.

Sounds like a good weight loss plan. Go ride for food to a restaurant that is closed.

Coastings advice to the whipped...
On riding day, say this, " Mrs [insert name], I am going for a ride later. I may be some time. Any questions? Save it."

so is it superbowl day?
if so, does that mean the roads are empty and perfect for a ride?

In my house, my wife says, "get your butt off the couch, we're going riding. "

Great ride, HP. Nice pics.
But you SoCal people ought to be arrested for uttering the term 'Dead of Winter'
All that lush grass must be brutal to shovel in.
