Wow what a long weekend.
Saw Beth on Friday, and made some nice dinner when she got here. Allergies kicked the crap out of me on Saturday, but we still managed to get in a short ride on the road. Parents came up on Saturday night and brought my two new kittens with them as well. We watched the Family Guy movie on Saturday night and went out to a nice dinnner at a local italian place. Sunday I spent most of the day doing work around here, closing the pool and starting tearing up carpet in my room to lay hardwood floor.
Class cancelled this morning, so only 2 classes today. Awesome. Now if my ribs would stop hurting and my nose would unplug.

Morning all. Dropped my car off to be inspected and have some routine maintenance done and had to wait 40 minutes for a ride to school :mumble: So I feel like I am behind schedule today beause I gave up my whole free period to sit there and wait. I knew should have just brought my bike and rode the 8 or so miles.
Oh well...had a GREAT ride on Friday afterwork and am looking forward to spinning again afterwork. I am SO lucky to still be able to hit the trails and feel as good as I do. Looking forward to hanging with some friends this weekend and capturing their antics on film :devil:

Hey, everyone. Not much going on today. I had a chance to ride the new roadie over the weekend and it's sweet! But, it's back to the good stuff after work today when I'm taking the Kona to the woods at Vassar Farms 
Nice! I have to e-mail her...we haven't chatted in a while. So, where were you DHing? Wiley certainly does crash hard when he goes down!douglas said:

going into 2nd day soreness from first adventure race
we did the sport course, 2-3 mile paddle , 5-10 mtn bike, 2-3 mile trek with special 'obstacles' during the transition phase
the first one was a list we were allowed to study for 60 secs, then we had to run ~ 400 yards to answers questions about the list. a prefect score was required to move on, then same run back to transition area
the next challenge was to add numbers that we recorded at the .5 mile markers during the mtn bike leg, again only a correct answered permitted transition
the final challenge was to leap frog using 3 cinder blocks, standing on only 2 at a time (all team members had to stand on block) the catch was that one of the members was blind folded. falling off at any point required a restart.
once all the required checkpoints were accomplished there were bonus cps with each successful cp taking on hour off the total elapsed time.
my teammate and i came in 2nd in the 2 man sport team.

Morning 
s.
Big weekend. Friday night went out with the crew from work for a short bit, then rode the bike home from the bar. Changed, went out with friends to a local French joint for dinner. Hit a local brewpub for nightcaps.
Saturday I hung out with the boys in the a.m. while my wife did her thing, then headed to the Great American Beer Fest with my brewery-owning buddy from Fort Worth. Tasted probably 50-60 IPAs and double/Imperial IPAs at the fest. Went to the local pub/pool joint and played pool and drank beer until 1:30a.m.
Sunday did some yard work and then friends came over to install a climbing wall in the basement. Oh, and we did Oktoberfest, too. Grill full of brats, kraut, German potato salad, etc....
Oh, and more beer. Paulaner Oktoberfest and Double Bock. Good stuff.
This morning I got up early and rode into work. I'm tired and hungry.

Hello all.
, glad to hear the comp is working. Don't catch it on fire, k?
I saw my father on Saturday, he's on vacation in CA from WY staying w/ my sister. It's the second time I've ever seen my father, the first time I saw him was 12 years ago, briefly. He came up to our house w/ my sister and their family for a BBQ. It was weird, but cool.
Sat night we went to the corn maze in Petaluma. 4 acres of terror. It took us over an hour to get out.
Sun I spent all day cleaning up trash and making runs to the landfill and pressure washing floors. My buddy is building a new recording studio in a building that my wife and I are leasing. The sublet tenants that were there totally trashed the place, so I had to go in and nuke it w/ cleaning products. Gross. They lived like chimps.

corn ma(i)zes are cool

Where exactly are you going to be this weekend?stosh said:
If you're anywhere near Woodstock, zip in and check out my LBS (Overlook Mountain Bikes) and you can witness where my paycheck goes.
The way my allergies and such are acting, I am spending ALL my time in a cushy bed until further notice.
