What is this time change you speak of?
Look on the bright side - it probably won't be any *more* rusty than one bought in your own area.
Cheap deadbeats dont pay rent.
Jaw is still sore from having a few mm of bone ground off. Soft food diet should help with weight loss. With any luck I’ll be at the same weight I was in 1994 when I quit racing xc, by my birthday next week. Cannot imagine going back to being 60 plus pounds heavier.
@I Are Baboon and @canadmos, you guys have inspired me to do other activities like hiking. Especialy when trails are too wet to ride. Been helping my old, beat up knees and overall fitness. Sometimes I ride and hike in the same day. Current target is a 2 hour ride followed by a 2.5 hour hike all on Pisgah like terrrain. Last attempt, ran out of daylight with an hour of hiking left. Good Pisgah conditioning because everyone hikes at some point.

You sure ? Seen any mice ?
I got a mouse problem, can you mail one of the owls to me ?
there are days I wish I worked in HR so I could tell people how diarrhea their resumes are.,
honhonhon!
For the record, I'd never suggest someone go hiking when quality biking is available.
I only do it when I'm lazy and/or hurt and otherwise can't ride a bike.
whenever i go hiking with the family, it's really hard for me to enjoy it because literally 99% of what i'm thinking about is what it would be like to be riding the trail instead of walking on it. the other 1% is beer.For the record, I'd never suggest someone go hiking when quality biking is available.

Do you run down the trail pretending to hold handlebars too? Sometimes I even throw in a little whip for hiking style.I always consider and pick lines when hiking.
Turns out i dont have any owls. Thank @FSM . They are burrowing owls and are protected in their breeding season. Its not breeding season. They love eating mice and stealing the homes of squirrels.
you just reminded me ...
A week or so ago I walked into town for dinner. Walking back well after dark I noticed something weird on top of a neighbor's car, on the roof rack cross bars specifically. I thought it was a bunched up jacket until I got closer. It was the biggest owl I'd ever seen, claws around the cross bar, eyes closed and still. This thing was the size of a t-day turkey. I watched it for a minute while it rested/slept and walked home.
Owls are fucking cool.

I pick lines through the rawks as well.I always consider and pick lines when hiking.
Yeah they are. Once, while night riding several years ago, an owl swooped down, snatched a mouse, and perched on a branch. By the time it landed it had killed and skinned the mouse. It was just sitting there with a tiny fur coat hanging out of it's mouth. Ultra efficient killing machine that makes me grateful owls are not the size of Volkswagens.
one of the reasons hiking above the treeline is so rad. you can pick ski lines.I always consider and pick lines when hiking.
The days of riding after work are getting slim.... Damn.
Not without lights anymore.

@jonKranked - did you ever sort out that mysterious water on the floor?
I now have water on the floor in my sun room and no obvious reason for it.

Good Afternoon!!
My day started before the sunz did. Gross. Upshot was spending the afternoon on the campus at Elon College for an install in one of their cafeterias. Apparently, the new trend for ladies is old school Umbro shorts - pulled waaaay up high. I see very little wrong with this.

I have noticed a recent trend among young women lately of wearing Mommy Jeans. I don't get it. The look is completely unflattering and anachronistic in a way. Too young to be wearing their Mom's pants. Most perplexing to me as a designer and disappointing as a dirty old man.
High wasited jeans. the CU students ruin their hot little bodies by wearing them. Prolly why millennials don't have sex

For the record I like owls a lot. One day during a santa ana I found a barn owl outside my fence along the road. Its claws were like needles. We tried to save it but I think it was too far gone. I see them around my house all the time. The burrowing owls are neat but when they get on your property it fucks your shit up with the environmentalist. They say they are a species of interest. The owls dont care about anything like little rodent owls. Then you gotta buy mitigating land and try and make squirrels dig holes and then make owls steal them. Nightmare.
Here's the deal, you dirty old fucker - they're not wearing them to attract YOU.
I used to have mysterious water in the basement. Then I got a de-humidifier that maintains the dew point well below the temperature of the walls and the floor and I haven't seen a droplet of water since.@jonKranked - did you ever sort out that mysterious water on the floor?

Now to do all today because it's raining fuck
after 18 years of night riding, I'm beginning to agree. No matter how great my setup is, it's still not as much fun as riding in daylight. Still, it's better than not riding at all.
