I have a friend who has an amazing humorus way of seeing the world and putting it down in writing. Here's a couple of things put up on my FB account......

"And on the eighth day God created aluminum, rubber and spokes. God then said to the human that God made, 'Go forth, conquer every obstacle in nature with these spokes.' The human said ' That's a bit dangerous isn't?' God said, 'See I am removing all natural sense of caution about jumping off over wet rocks and the like.' When the human awoke from a deep sleep there was a perfectly formed Mtn Bike created from the human's natural good sense that had been removed. The human spoke and said, 'It' all butta'. I 'm soooo stoked.' And it was so."

Wow!! Finally, proof positive of the veracity of that old legend about the lost tribe of surfers who wandered into the Southern Appalachian mountains and never left. They were rumored to have intermarried with the indigenous population. Until now, the only sign of their existence was a cryptic message carved on a tree. It read, "It's all butta' bra'." Clearly, we now can make a case from linguistic analysis that they merely added wheels to their boards and adapted their surfer lifestyle to the local terrain.

I also scored some new tires on Ebay. I'm counting on the same dryer than normal conditions this year.
