Shrimp tacos...just sayin'

Why that's just devious! Excellent!

Remember: Age and treachery will defeat youth and skill.

My wife is on a plane to Zurich and will be gone for 3 days. I have no supervision.

On a plane in body but still there so be good. just sayin':innocent:

Freedom to leave the toilet seat in any position, I envy you.:D

I have my own bathroom so the seat may be up or down but the others......the seat must be down. I am definitely Pavlov's dog on this one. I spent the morning at the track, the afternoon working and the evening at the gym.

I had my 45 miler all planned, but as I was driving to the starting point I received a call about staff issues in the office and had to turn around and come back. Now there is a rainstorm of biblical proportions. I was prepared to HTFU (I bought a new rain slicker at the REI in Chicago) but I would have gotten a bit wet anyway. Just as well I suppose.

Saddle sore. Blech. Ride anyway, or stay home and cry?

I must admit that at the gym last night on the stretching mat I was between two women. One with long legs said she rode horses and could take the full stack on the ad/ab inner thigh machine. For a moment, my mind wandered to....:D

see...:)

I know, I know exactly what you were thinking: SHE'S A DOPER!

Just read this thread for the first time, all 5 pages. There goes 5 minutes of wasted life I can never get back.

Rode to the "Bike to Work Breakfast" this morning at 5:30AM, Arrrrrrugh no bagles, bummed!

Another speed reader with a 1.0 page per minute ave.:p Me?, I like to take the whole thing into perspective looking for little bits of irony, sarcasm and true meaning.

I am always on the lookout for a wee bit of testiness to spice up the tweets. :)

There's a ride coming up that is captained by the husband of the CRH (tm). I might check him over and if he's a wuss, play a little presidential Captain KickAss on him.

Don't forget the Deep Woods Off. You may need it.

Why do you think it is called Twitter?

Uh, fixed it for you....

Getting really annoyed with this years weather patterns, seems to start with Monday: windy, windy, rainy, windy, rainy+windy, rainy, rainy (repeat) :notamused:

Tired of the wind...but at least it's dry.

When I got to the starting point of my ride this evening, there was a woman unloading a Cervelo S2 with Reynolds DV 46 tubies. There was a lot of wind so those wheels would be a handful. She looked maybe 50ish.

Was she hot? You know, worth the chase?

So, was this a 1/2 can of Off ride?, or, did you use the whole can?

Not really. She was too soft for my taste and sort of Doris (Fred equivalent). I am into the hard body P/1/2 look.

Per The Weak Link's request, I shipped all my cans of OFF to him.

I had to ship my Quarq power meter back to them for calibration. They cross shipped me a loaner so I would not be without one. Today, I got my original one back and installed it on the TT bike. I will test it out tonight.

So I got hold of all those cans Hermes sent me and emptied two of them on me. I didn't go any faster, but when a turkey buzzard got a bit too close (I hate those things) it got one whiff and keeled over dead.

2 cans! careful, that's enough to ward off CRH's.

I was back at the same parking area and another woman this time with a Kestral tri bike with no seat tube. She was in some kind of kit but.......a solid 180 pounds plus.:eek: My eyes are still recovering.

I was testing my new power meter on my TT bike. Guys, it is a good thing that riding bikes is not like the Old West quick draw. I would be in Boot Hill. On my 2nd z4 of the night, one of my teammates, a younger guy, maybe a Cat 3, goes out ahead. I take off on the TT bike into a 25 mph head wind. I catch him and pass him. I come to a 2% grade and I am hitting 275 watts up the climb and feeling good about myself. He passes me. Fine. There is a down hill section and I keep the z4 power on and pass him again. We come to another grade and I am at 285 w. He passes me and crushes me.:eek: And so it goes. Dead. Bury him in Boot Hill and put on the tombstone..................Here lies Hermes...Definitely not a doper or certainly a very bad one.
