Boh.

Was going to go riding with a friend yesterday...

His house is about a 5 minute ride from mine along the bike track, so I told him I would meet him on the track.

Anyway, I'm waiting, and I see him running towards me pushing his bike.

Turns out he underestimated a corner, went too fast, braked too hard and crashed into a fence...Buckled his rear wheel and needed his mum to come pick him up :lol:

OT and mainly for Scrublover: I'll be eating here Saturday evening and will be eating from the tasting menu. Can't wait! http://www.pintxo.ca/

The Girlscout is bummed. He finished one second off the podium at the State Championships.There was a lot of questions about the timing. It involved a pocketwatch and a cellphone.

MMMMMM............Blood pudding w/ apple chutney.

I ended up ordering the strawberry gazpacho, the foie gras terrine on caramelized onions, the salmon tartar and the serrano ham/cheese stuffed fig as appetizers. They're served like tappas.

For my main course I ordered the fish of the day, which was a pan-seared arctic char on mashed potatoes with a cherry tomato/cucumber salsa drizzled on it. It was absolutely delicious and I am definitely going back.

I don't understand a word you just said.

Yah know...I think you should suggest they buy those little 10 mile radios that are so cheap now days. Much less time lag there. How do they do the "big" races?

I didn't come last at the states. Sorry you guys didn't get a big ride report like you did the last race, i've been busy. I guess its kinda too late now considering it was the 5th :lol:

PUSH do Fox and selected RS, but I'm looking for somewhere similiar that would do Manitou, along with replace the rebound adjuster assembly - i snapped it. The Australian importer was changed a couple of weeks ago and haven't received parts yet (They don't know when they will either) and the old importer is all out, so it could be a while before i get my shock fixed and i thought it might be easier to send it OS even. Ugh, so confused. Maybe i should use this as an oppurtunity to buy a new shock? Then again, why bother when I want a new frame and fork. Rahhhh so many decisions.

Brake pads? What pads?

If your asking what pads those are, they look to be Shimano.

haha, yeah they're Shimano, but no, I wasn't asking what they were :P

Yeah, looking back I can see how that could be misread :lol:

My local State Champs!

The jump at the start is, as per usual, hugererererer in real life. It was my nemesis for the race and I'm proud to say i overcleared and flatlanded it.

Well...that'll make yur navel pucker:)

Nice vid. Looks like fun.

Pucker? I filed a Missing Navel report!

I kept rolling up to it, and rolling up to it until one time i hit it. It was awesome.

So my family picked up a new pup this past weekend... It's been many years since my wife or I have owned a dog and it's much more fun than I remember. She has been an absoulute blast to have around. I'm not real sure what she has in her. The adoption folks thought she was a Border Collie mix. What ever she is, I have my fingers crossed that she will grow up to be a decent trail dog. Right now she is just all puppy.

That's awesome, congrats on the addition!

Looks like one more added to the TGMBG dawg pound. Awesome!

She looks like a collie mix of some sort. Should be an epic trail pal. I'm jealous. I REALLY want a dog.

Border collie mixes are such goodhearted companions. I sure miss ours. Congrats to you highrevs. Keep that busy mouth occupied constructively ;)

Nice looking pup, Borders are very intelligent dogs.

and make sure the dog has something to chew on too. :D

p.s well done BFG

What's this white stuff on the ground?

Nice. Its snowed a bit here (we had some on Monday for like a min), but nothing stayed.

They love to eat cheetoes. Be careful when you pet.

^^ha ha!
