I'm not impressed.

You're not impressive.

I'm not a medical professional. Please explain what I'm looking at.

I am, who would have thought that not only does the man have some sort of job which presumably takes up some of his time, he rides like 3 hours a day and posts here for another 3 - where does he find the time to keep his yard looking so darm good? Golf cource nice.

Oh wait, you were talking about the yard right?

An arthritic L5/S1 spinal joint, much like my own, except mine has the hardware from the pointless major surgery that did absolutely nothing to alleviate my back pain. On the bright side, I did wind up on massive doses of oxycontin after all else failed. Got tired of that after several years. Now I'm hooked on endorphins. And no trips to the pharmacy. That's what motivates me to ride.

Hell, my dentist gave me a prescription for Tylenol with Codeine after my recent root canal procedure. The paper is in the drawer, I never filled it. I've been taking Aleve.

The effect that a combination of Viagra and prostate shrinking drugs have on your manhood

Landscapers. They mow the lawn, I write the checks.

Its still nice

My front lawn is full of ****. Quite literally.

I thought it was just you.....

That's rather obvious.

dude - what do you want - original humor? I live in Canada, we are far to nice to be really good at humor.

Not black enough

So you're the Mick Mars of cycling then, huh?

If you didn't ride, your spine would seize up and you'd be a walking skeleton?

The last time I checked Quebec was in Canada, and they don't have this problem.

every frog has warts...... not that there is anything wrong with that.. oh no, quick say something about a bike so I do not get removed... um, I love the look of Time bikes.

Nice, pcad - looks just like a ride in this part of PA. Except my yard looks crappy, and I don't live at the top of a hill.

Bet that deck is a great spot to camp out and take in the view with a good bottle of wine.

His yard is crappy. He even said so.

Yeah well whatever....mine really IS.

And the best part is that I don't really care

Beth

That's only about 7% grade on average. Sure, you have some steep parts, but they are short.

I don't disagree dark, but I hit this hill EVERY day, at the end of EVERY ride, and sometimes with 109 miles in my legs or after hard workouts. When I first started riding again after a five year layoff, I was much heavier than I am now (25 lbs) and there were a couple of times I called Mrs. Pcad for a sag wagon lift up that stupid hill. That's when I started calling it Mt. Doom. On the USGS (US Geological Survey) Maps it's an old hill called Pine Hill, and our house is at the top.

Now of course it doesn't matter how tired I am, I manage to grind up it regardless.

At the risk of being too "nice" and defending pcad (who certainly doesn't need my help), those steep, albeit short, sections at the end of any ride of length and effort are gonna hurt. Even a little 5-6% at mile 98 when the legs are done hurts.

Ok, I'm done being nice now. HTFU, pcad

Beth

Fixed.

BTW, nice house and yard. However, you have no idea what a minefield is until you get a .15 acre lot and have the puppy shown here hang out with you for a couple weeks.
