Several of these apply to cycling. Especially (5).

Triple score.

I get a bit of grease out of the joint between head tube and fork.

It attracts a nice coat of black brake soot.

You rate zombie movies? The closest I have ever come to seeing one is that stupid home appliance warranty commercial.

f4rrest 04-07-17 08:30 PM
I'll never watch one either.

The little lady might even watch this one with me; she has a strange aversion to movies where bad things happen.
Why does she come here?

Hey @Trsnrtr

This afternoon I saw an old guy on a recumbent doing laps around a church parking lot. He pegged the Fred meter (graphic unavailable).

I thought of you.
I pegged the Fred-o-meter today, too. Got invited to a trike ride with a couple of old guys. We rode a local trail, stopped a few times for bathroom breaks (old guys, remember), had lunch, petted dogs, etc. When I saw the Garmin upload on Strava, I considered deleting it. I think we averaged 10.5 mph. :lol:

The funny thing is, they want me to do a cockroach ride with them tomorrow and I'm considering doing it. :rolleyes:

You could have ended your story here and we'd all nod our heads in agreement.

As tough as we get around here.



I like #3.
That's tough for anywhere. It's the intensity that matters. It's a nice, varied course.

I predict you will surprise yourself downtube shifters notwithstanding. Good luck!

There's a great Russian train flic called Kray. It's about a soldier sent to a Siberian work camp and renovates an old engine.

Yep. That's what I'm talking about, too.

rjones28 04-07-17 08:45 PM
BTW. Still snowing.

I am kind of unusual in that I can ride with decent sport riders on the fanciest machines one day and then lolligag on a trike with fat old guys the next. In between, I might be on a tandem.

I guess I'm not machine-biased or maybe it's called ambi-pedalism. :)

This cold weather sucks I can't drive the C7.

I can't imagine how frustrating it must be.

1. It doesn't snow here. :)

2. My Chevy is big and heavy. :(

No. You're thinking of the 30 mile stop cookie, banana, and orange slice buffet.

There's an addiction club ride from my house in the morning. B there or B square.

Because we're addicted to bikes and stuff, we're going to go north so we get a rad head wind on the way back. Porbably.

It stopped snowing. We only had a couple of inches of accumulation.

I should have added that this is the ONLY zombie movie I have seen. Unless you count the music video "Thriller."
