No, but I'm going to run across him eventually. However, she is related to Paavo Nurmi.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

Yes folks, here we have a bicycle powered by black spaghetti noodles. You've just defined the Pasta Rocket in the visual.

Much of our snow is now just a slushy mess.

It was soupy foggy today, high 30s, with a misty rain. I went up to my dad's house to start clearing out the attic and the trip home in the dark with the fog was a little spooky.

That's an odd place to record video from on a bike, no?

Yeah, I'm in the area. I live on the AA county side of Laurel right off 295.
Ah ok, not too far.

I was wrong about the trainer price. I can't afford one.

I usually stick it on the handlebar, but that was getting boring. I think on the group ride this weekend I'll do one with it pointing back.... that will capture almost no one.

That'd be a cool perspective... er... oh wait.
You mean because you drop everyone so fast they never see you again, right?

So this season we were 0-2 in games in which we were leading when the clock hit 0:00 and then the refs put time back on the clock.

He has a car. Not sure if he's in pursuit of trivia games now. (hahaha, see what I did there? Trivia pursuit?)

I figured out what was going on in the arena today: Lady Vols beat Rutgers.

Where's RUOkie? Oh yeah, he ran away into hiding.

umd has the Contour HD as well. Do you have a pic of how you mounted it? That would be a funny angle for him to try. He usually mounts it below his stem. Or below his saddle when he's filming runners.

I've been enjoying his videos he posted on FB. Looks like some fun roads over in your neck of the woods.
