Watch out, G. For cookies and Thor, I may just have to take Chip up on his offer. AND I'd have someone that wouldn't mind riding with me.

In case I don't make it back to the keyboard this evening, allow me to extend this holiday greeting to one and all.

Whatever happens, is what happens. I agree that this thread is a great diversion. Have a great holiday.

My family and I are about to leave to a little Christmas Eve party at a neighbor's house. My neighbor is a clydesdale that rides a trek madone. I got him riding with my group about a year ago. That didn't last long. He was surprisingly fast on the flats. But he was VERY slow up hill.

The thread title should be changed today to "Bored Roadies Holed up with Family and too much Food need a Thread About Nothing at all".
What's on the menu today that is going to require double hours on the bike tomorrow? We had a gut-buster of a breakfast. Bacon, french toast, omelets, fruit, coffee, juice & candy from stockings.
