- Thread starter 6thElement
- Start date
up having coffee, and fixin' oatmeal.
excellent idea. I'm picking up JWB and should be up around 930-945. I think a WP friend may meet us too.
Dress warm, 36 freedums in Winter Park at 10AM.
At least it's inside the Gondola for the first ride to the top.
Township fall festival today. Taco truck at brewery later. Maybe sneak in a ride tomorrow?
wish it was dh saturday for me. coffee, freedom toast, house stuff...then maybe a ride with the 9yo
Another fucking day of staring at my toes again. Probably going to re-watch a few WC races and then enjoy some real time concussion sport action. But I did get a nice variety Marzen beers last night, so at least I can maintain my carefully crafted ring of dad flab.

Are you post surgery or just have some awful, poorly executed shaving habit?
Both! But yeah, post surgicals. Finally was able to get some measure of sleep last night, so things trending in the right direction. But by all means, spill a few ounces out of your Olde E tallboy for me and make great merriment today.
Winter is definitely on its way. Blew my nose this morning, turned into the elevator scene from The Shining.
I had to turn up the thermostat on the hot tub.

I have to go into the office and try to rewire a had controller for a wheelchair lift that one of my morons ripped off its cable. Then it's off to the barn to get the horse trailer and bring it home. Time to prep it for the 5000 mile round trip to Kentucky in 3 weeks
Saturday ring slinging time. This Smith has a thru hike to pay for.
Hiya fellers LOL!! I ran 18.34 miles this morning. 35 degrees....so awesome for running. 
Saved enough energy to go for an MTB ride in a bit. It'll be Wife's first ride on her new Juliana Roubion. She got it Wednesday and it's promptly rained every day since, because of course it did.

Headed to meet a buddy after he completes an annual 25mi ride. Had my gall bladder removed a few weeks back so this ride and my annual VT trip we’re pulled off the table.
Hoping to be good for rescheduled VT trip in a few weeks.
Have to pass thru the festive shithole of Salem MA to get there though, so will hit range on return trip to make the effort worth it.

Managed a ride today. Temps barely in the 60s and cloudy. Quite a change from 91 on Thursday.
DH Saturday in the bag. 6th & teh Mrs. + several good buddies who RIP on bicycles.
@jackalope - I done did my best, I hope you had many vicarious thrills today.

Bolt will all the bells and whistles, after all the discounts in $50 more than the Leaf with all the bells and whistles. Base RWD Tesla, which is still nicer, is still $6k more. Still intrigued by the Hyundai/Kona small SUV.
Going for an evening walk, wearing a sweater.
Meh...
Had a dinosaur powered one as a rental for a few hundred miles earlier this year. Wasn't horrific. I'd likely rather have a leaf I think out of leaf, volt, kona.
DH with wife, @Nick and friends was great. That might be it for the DH bike for this year if we choose Moab over Angel Fire for an upcoming weekend.

Big ride today, about 6600’ vert with the same descending. Lots of hike a bike. Topped out at 12,500’ twice. Super fun trails... I have a new contender for roughest / rowdiest / technical trail in Colorado... Horseshoe Creek. Also I’m knackered like I haven’t been in a long while.
No Whiskey Creek?
We may not have gotten to the trailhead until 3:15-ish.Big ride today, about 6600’ vert with the same descending. Lots of hike a bike. Topped out at 12,500’ twice. Super fun trails...

I'm glad someone finally went and rode Horseshoe Creek. I've been curious for quite some time about that trail...
Diet is over. I may stick with the Oats. I liked them. I lost no weight. I smoked no buds. I drank no beer. BP is the same. Oxygen was good. I like meat. I eat a strip steak tonight and it was delicious.
I like fat joints too
Drove the Bolt. It's nicer than the Leaf. Quicker, handles better, has an armrest that my arm actually fits on, and the interior passenger space is better. Storage space isn't as good, but I don't really need it because we will be driving Wifey's car on weekends more than not.
Since you do big-mileage days and are clearly, uh, fiscally conservative have you done the math on a Prius or Prius Prime? (Or Clarity +/- PHEV or Kia Niro hybrid?)
