Pretty sure there would have to be some overlap, so you'd just have a different pattern of multiple shades up there. Just embrace your inner cougar. :roflmao2:

Waddaya think I am - made of money?

Waddaya think I am - some kind of hoodlum?

Waddaya think I am - some kind of- wait, how did you know that my HS mascot was the cougar? :foo:

Some of these addicts are indeed a bad influence, what with their abundant disposable incomes and all. You would do well to put some of the worst ones on ignore. :mad:

Yes.

Put it on the left calf, that way it'll look like you were doing a fancy stunt or something. :thumb:

Have you or have you not spent substantial time in Brooklyn? No further questions. :notamused:

A a matter of fact...

Sunday viewing: Shock Waves (1977) - IMDb

Classic. :thumb:

Watching the Indy 500.

Some foreign dude named Fernando is in the lead :foo::foo:

Also, Scott Dixon is lucky to be alive. That was one of the most brutal crashes I've seen that didn't result in injuries. Like a light aircraft crash landing at 220 mph.

Because your buy 2 helmet plan is cost effective?

Fun club ride today. Advertised as a recovery ride, too many riders showed up (around 25), so after about 10 miles we split into two. I took the faster group, it was more than true recovery pace but not hard. Fun pace. Only drawback is all 4 of the wimmenz took the true recovery pace ride. Those women are smart.

Nope.

:foo:

Very cute. The other cutie in cycling is Race Reporter Ruby.

Those may be the best conditions I've seen you post all year.

I don't think there was enough wind to make it "feel like" 87. Felt more like putting my head in the oven :)

Also, I couldn't find my SPF 70, so I made do with SPF 50. Hello melanoma!

I like it when my tire changing gives me change.

Kudos.

Finally got a chance to get out with a couple of friends to ride the PedalFest course. Its some not-too-hard-for-actual-mountain-bikers-but-a-little-daunting-for-me single track and then a fire road climb/descent that's no biggie. Beginners ride two laps and have a shorter climb, everyone else does three laps and a longer fire road climb.


I walked anything dicey-looking to me and rode some of it. Not sure I'll be racing it this year, although my main tour guide friend thought it would be no problem to get up to speed. My other excellent-advisor-former-MTB-instructor friend kind of felt like I should take my time and not worry about racing until I felt comfortable, everyone develops confidence at their own speed.


The really nice thing about this course though is that its in a park right in the middle of town. So its easy to get to and just ride the bits I feel ok about and gradually add the harder and harder stuff over time. The other difference is that most other singletrack we have is much longer and faster- it will be down a mountain. This is just a rollercoaster course that is all ups and downs, so it doesn't all come at you in rapid fire succession. Its nice too that there are plenty of people around to call 911 if I crash, so I can just sometimes go out solo and figure it out on my own without worrying about holding anyone else up.


Overall it was fun though and the company was great. Really appreciate my friends sometimes, they didn't get in too much of a ride watching me get on and off the bike saying things like "yikes" and "I don't think so".

[MENTION=147472]Herbie53[/MENTION], looks like you had ?fun?.

What was the cost of your lens portfolio, again?

Hey [MENTION=160999]Bah Humbug[/MENTION], you'll appreciate this.


I have a friend who races Ironman and Half Ironman tris. She is the type that actually tries to win.


She was originally a runner but can't run much anymore because of an injury.


Last week we were riding and she was telling me how she had signed up for a marathon and wasn't sure why, she hasn't run except in a recent half-Ironman in ages. Had a semi-idea that she wanted to qualify for the Boston Marathon, as unrealistic as that might be with no training. But when she turned 30 (she's 50 now), she qualified for Boston but then broke her clavicle a few weeks before and didn't get to run. The way she sees it, the qualifying times are just getting easier as she moves up in age groups.


So yesterday she ran the marathon and of course qualified for Boston. Haha says she never wants to run a marathon again, so who knows if she'll do it.


(I'm pretty sure she will.)
