I hate country roads. I want my city back. Will have it tomorrow, anyway. My mom made me drive home from dinner (which was lobster mac and cheese by the way), and I nearly took out 3+ mailboxes. There's no streetlights and the roads are all twisty and stuff. The GPS sent me down a friggin unpaved road with tons of pot holes. 'the hell is this? How do you do it?

It usually starts with learning how to drive.

:notamused:

I'm just not used to pitch black roads. I looked in the rear view mirror and literally just saw black. Not one light.

Did you have your headlights on?:innocent:

I was just joking. My night vision sucks big time.

For the most part. My night vision does suck.

Mine is okay, but I still took it really slow.

Yes, haha. Only gives you 15 feet of vision. I let cars behind me pass since I was not going 45 on those roads.

According to the 33, if you are not leaving a trail of puke, you are not riding hard enough.

According to the 33 the Bear Mtn. Road Race is the Tour de France. Take it from where it comes.

It was a 45 zone, but I don't like going into dark and hoping I stay out of someone's living room.

Did you change your setting on how many posts per page. 25 is default... 10100/25=404...

You know, I thought of that too, and now I cant find it on the page.

Edit: never mind I found it.

Did you ever turn your highs on? It was weird for me at first, but since I live out in moo-ville, one really appreciates the light those headlights can produce.

It'll get better.

I love my country roads. They take me home. To the place. I belong.

Why would you ruin lobster with mac and cheese?

Tell your mom to not drink so much.

Na, I didn't think about it.

Hit 48mph on a 4 mile, mostly straight descent yesterday. The good part about that is you don't get passed by anyone. FYI, 48 doesn't feel much different than 38.

I had a regular lobster the other day, this was good. She didn't drink, she was having eye issues. Not that I did much better haha. Look who's critical tonight.

52 feels quite different from 38. Trust me on this.

Hey pCad, now that you have given racing, and the 33 in doing so the middle finger, are you going to go through a stage of depression?
