Riding till Doomsday

Well, here it is, today is your last chance to ride... EVAH! The world ends tomorrow.

Do you have any plans for this last day of pedaling pleasure.

Just had a blizzard here in Nebr. I guess I will have to be satisfied to just go out in the garage and set in the seat a while and remember the wonderful rides last summer.

I wonder if there are recumbent bikes and trikes in Heaven (hopeing of course thats where Im going)!

To may way of thinking Hell probably only has DF bikes.

The Mayans don't care about time zones. They only care about theirs. But yeah, Ill be ticked off if it doesn't happen. I just purchased an R8 for Christmas!

How could they have predicted the Capitalist-corporate seizure of democracy and Nuclear weapons and

the Power plant melt downs at Chernobyl TMI and Japan ..

that make the Human Species a self eliminating infection of 1 lump of rock around a mundane yellow sun.

Bikes: specalized sirrus

they let us off early so I got in nice 22 mile ride before dark. My feet were cold, not painful cold but almost. Other than that, a real nice ride, no wind, one dog, and almost no cars.
