I'm joking.

I don't know, I'm kind of a bear in the morning... Get it?! Okay, that was a bad joke, but bears will go for the blond first - trust me (haven't we been over this before?...the blond always gets killed by the serial killers and the bears first in movies - after getting screwed royally!)

The black guy/girl usually gets it right before or after the couple having sex does.

Cali is going to just kill me one of these days. I mean it - she is going to push me off my bike in the middle of traffic, because without a doubt, and even without intentionally trying sometimes...SEX shows up in any thread I'm in - including her Joshua Tree Thread. Sorry, Cali, I started it and I won't make any more tawdry remarks or even allude in such a manner.

The sex is what makes the first 15 minutes of any horror movie worthwhile.

it's not too bad..... i've ridden the highway before.... but it's been a while... the shoulders for the most part are pretty wide.... that said..... it's probably better to stay in the park... but again... all negotiable and up to the riders! i'd really like to add a side loop to cholla gardens... technically that should be after key's view... but since cholla is down.... it's warmer.... so in that case should be done before key's view...

but then.... if everyone wants just the out and back... then that's a fun ride, too!

CHolla was on the way to Cottenwood right?
Seemed like a really pretty ride...but some climbing to get back I think??
that could add another 15 or so miles as I recall??

Oh, come on! #1, you know I just did that to get the "mad" smiley (I love that one), and #2, Even if you haven't been on your bike, you've been working out and are in great shape, I'm sure. So, don't YOU sandbag, missy!

but that's another story! lol! i'm excited about the time change saturday night..... i'll get back to riding a couple evenings after work.... i'm planning on NOT putting on the same mileage i have the last two years though.... i did the newbie-itis thing... and now i realize i have other things to do besides eat, work and ride! so yes... .i'm still going to ride (duh.... i am planning this... right!?) but just no where near the mileage of the past 2 years! i want it to be fun.... not something i feel i HAVE to do...

the climb out of cholla IS a gentle climb.... definitely better than the 1st 3 miles in (which compared to a lot of rides isn't that bad.... but is still a decent climb)
