I'm split between desire to ride but on rollers or the perhaps better plan of Xcountry on the local golf course. Decisions, decisions...

Eldora was pretty good. Nordic trails soft, no one on 'em b/c they were all over waiting in the lift lines at the Alpine area. No wind. (I know, wtf?)

At first glance I thought you were talking about a ball sport . . . then you reverted back to the dark side.

"Dusty peninsula" was the first hint.

I was invited to a Super Bowl party, but I've already seen all the good commercials. So I don't see the appeal.

I think I am going to have to acquire the movie "Act of Valor" for a future training session. Also haven't you always wanted to shoot a LAW Rocket at at truck?

At this rate I may be able to play the guitar by late 2012. Just in time for the end of the world.

That's perfectly normal; nothing wrong with that.

These guys did the halftime show at the UT basketball game tonight. Look at the short guy. He's way too fat for that sport. Amazing.

I hate tubular glue, but I have a pint of Vittoria Mastic One in my basement.

Day two of a migraine......weeeeee

Sorry to hear that LowCel. Migraines suck. I hope it goes away soon.

Thanks. They usually put me on my ass for about three days. At least this one didn't result in an ER visit or them thinking I had a stroke.

Ha, I love that! Can't help but think "suckers" when you glide past the weekend hordes into the virtually private, quiet, solitude....

Bummer. I tend to get mine during allergy peak. No cure but a silent dark room and a compress for me. Hope you feel better.

I just stuck a bit of electrical tape over the hole in the leg of my winter tights, and I'm going out for a ride. Time for new tights, maybe?

LesterOfPuppets 02-05-12 01:53 PM

I'd have just Sharpied my leg ;)

It's already up to 47° here. I'm thinking it'll be warm enough for shorts by game time so I'm gonna do a superbowl ride!

Soloist Assassin 02-05-12 04:17 PM

I covet these brakes. Just w/o the obnoxious logo on them.

That doesn't keep the cold air out very well, though. Just got back 30 miles @ 33 degrees.
