Yeah - so that's how the good doc would get to trails. And despite the trails only being 25 miles (White Ranch) away... yeah. An hour or more.

I GOT it! You guys should just move to Seattle! We have some great schools here, great trails, and then I'd have some additional riding buddies!
even at the buttcrack of dawn?
Or get eaten for that matter.Well, no. But who the f**k wants to get up that early?
Heh. Nobody's gonna get eaten... but an encounter like that is likely to lighten your morning load and leave a mess in your shorts.
the Summer before getting a job offer in CO I was considering a move up there.
I still have a bike, a 29er with some touring tires on it. I ride regularly. It's just that my rides are all to and from work, or tooling around the neighborhood with Mariko in the trailer.
:dislike:
I-70 in the flatlands isn't bad outside of commuting hours, and there's no way I can get a ride in on a weekday what with working until 5 PM and the two kids. This is not to say that I-70 in the mountains on the weekends isn't bad, but that's a different issue and hopefully will be resolved in part by that new express lane. I have my switchable transponder all ready.
This. I've lived in Seattle many years (Wedgwood, Sand Point, West Seattle, Capitol Hill). Traffic is terrible: 5th worst in the nation, iirc, whereas Denver was a paltry 22nd.I've heard the traffic is nice, too.
I'm not so sold on the public school system's quality these days, either, and couple private school tuition with crazy real estate prices (crazier yet by far than even Stapleton) and it's a big "nope" from me.
Oh... wait. You're talking about the COUGARS.
anytime waking up after 6:00 am i consider wasted hours...Well, no. But who the f**k wants to get up that early?
crazy talk coming from someone with insomnia issues....i know...
Well it's time to reconsider! Plenty o' jobs here!
*sigh*
Looks like Cancun instead of Barcelona.

I interview in Seattle on Monday. Bit of a long shot, but the hiring manager is an old boss of mine and he wants me in. Would be a significant promotion from where I am.
It is balls cold out, literally. Just finished a ride and tomorrow I will be going to find a windbreaker jacket and maybe some pants to ride in.
Great ride though. I came up on 4-5 deer. All I could see was their eyes reflecting from my lights and couldn't tell if it was the blair witch project, samsquanch or some markers on trees. Saw their cute lil furry white asses go trotting away when I got closer. MMMMMMMMMM I reminds me to ask my friend for some deer pepperette sticks when he gets back from hunting.

Well if this all works out, perhaps a house and a boat. Or maybe just something with the ///HR Factor.
Still wouldn't be able to afford the toaster.
Again, this is a long shot. I would be 20 years younger than anyone else who holds this position.
