Here's my gift to everyone ... merry christmas

A little taste of rural paradise, to be sure. OK, so how far did you walk, and how long did it take? Average pace please. Any notable climbs?

You know, I just couldn't figure out a way to strap my garmin to my butt. :p

RATS!!! Missed it.


If ME doesn't want it, can I give it a good home?

I want it, Mo! And I'm going to buy it from him. Maybe I'll trade him a set of his favorite tires or something if he won't take money.

But this is only if the cassette fits my wheel. Does anyone know how to tell? (no cracks about my hair color please. My blondeness has nothing to do with my absolute ignorance when it comes to bike parts. :p)

What wheels do you have? Most Shimano freehubs can take 8, 9, or 10 sp Shimano and SRAM cassettes.

I have Bontanrager wheels with spread out spokes and I believe they are 9 sp. Does that help. :o

While in AZ, I was fortunate enough to take my uncle's '31 Ford out for a spin on a frosty morning.

Sweet pic, Vance!

:eek: Are those the children that Tiffanie bore? Little teenie, tiny, delicate Tiff? (by delicate I do not mean wimpy or weak...the woman is tough! She's just slight of figure). Beautiful children! You two done good. :)

Those would be them!! I tend to think we done good as well!!:D

It's like the Brady Bunch!

Yesterday was a beautiful day to ride. The mountains with snow were awesome! Here are some pics. The third photo is actually from Thursday on my ride through Santiago Canyon. That's Mojeska Peak with snow!

Luwin - your WA photos are awesome. I love the sunset (or sunrise?). James your photos was nice as well. I love the boat and wooden deck.

I just got back from St. Paul MN (I was there on business). The day I left was 15 degrees BELOW 0. It was cold!!!! Like take your breathe away cold! I happen to be there at the start of their Winter Carnival. I didn't walk around much but got these photos:
