Yeah the view from the camp is great on clear day...man I miss those roads...Between the Angeles Crest, San Fernando and Santa Monica mountain ranges you could climb every day and find a different route.
Last time I did Little T was when we did the last stage of the ToC (it was a PAA ride I organized)...we came over Little T into Acton and picked up the route from there...10k of climbing over 95mi...really great day on the bike.

I think I have come down with Bubonic Pneumonia or something, a mere two days away from what should be the MRI / Ortho appointment for the asplodaleg. Two days ago I get my my Strat back from the Luthier with some cool hotrodded vintage Fender pickups, a rewire, and a new set up and promptly broke the ring finger on my right hand.
The kid gets in a fight, gets a ticket for underage drinking, and then a day later runs her car off the road and hits a tree.
I think I'm doing it wrong.

Hang in there. When life gives you lemons, if you pour the juice in an open wound it gives you focus.

asking me would have done no good anyway, that nitrous made it like I wasn't even there. I do recall some rather forceful "sounds" at one point.

Buddy Holly's "Not Fade Away" is, by the amount and variety of bands and people who have covered it, the greatest rock song ever written and transfers well to any sub genre from punk to grunge to glam to metal to rockabilly.
"I'm gonna tell you how it's gonna be. You're gonna give your love to me"
Ludacris could sell this.
Buddy Holly was a freakin genius.

Meh, I'm saving up all the frustration until I reach the boiling point. I am then going to drive the 15 minutes up the road to the Tuesday nighter and unleash absolute holy hell for about 2 laps, pull off and remember I have zero training time in, puke, pack up and come home. Immediatly afterward I'm running away to join a monestery that has bike messengers.

I saw one of my supervisors yesterday. He looks at me and goes "what the heck is that", while pointing to his face. "Do you have a girlfriend, no right? Yeah that's why." All while pointing to my beard. So apparently I have a no girlfriend beard. Woot!
I don't understand youth in revolt.

Damn it took me like 15 minutes to stretch a new tubular onto my wheel. Tomorrow I'll glue it up.
