I'm disappointed. I thought you were one of us, but you aspire to be one of them. Fred ****ing tastic.

Camping gear? Huh?

Actually, if I was feeling really frisky and adventurous it would not be a bad idea to pitch a tent on the Blue Ridge Parkway and get a couple nice rides in some weekend.

But that's too much work.

So what's your goal? Are you going to hook up with a nice paceline and shoot for five hours?

Heh heh - it is odd. Bought the pedals/shoes online about three weeks ago, first pair were a size too small, so they had to be shipped back and exchanged. Finally received the replacements last night. In the interim, I fell in to a PowerTap Pro (wired, couple years old) - I didn't buy it, a client gave it to me. He had replaced it with an ANT+ unit, and didn't want to go through the hassle of selling it. It's laced to an Open Pro rim and he left the Dura Ace cassette on there, too. Not bad, for free.

if i find it's not too unpleasant, i might venture further afield on other weedends. i'm getting a bit bored of the same old routes from home.

5 hours? sure. that's what I'll report back with.

if you have nice scenic places on your doorstep, it is crminally negligent of you to not go ride there and take some nic photos for the BF masses.

It's about an hour drive to get to the mountains--farther for better riding spots.

I hate driving. Still, I should be out there more than I've been this year.

What mntn routes do you ride in Tn. Vol? I have been contemplating a Climbing vacation if I can get to my target weight of 200 lbs. I was thinking of N. Carolina, but am open to suggestions. Cali. was an option at one point but would cost a fortune. Thoughts?
