Morning Monkeys... I had a great weekend during all the great weather we had. Saturday was spent on the trails at Hartshorne riding and riding and riding some great singletrack. That and 70 deg weather in Jan made my day!!
Sunday I went to the palisades trail with my wife and Puppy and did some hiking... 8 mile trail with 1280 ft climbed in about 4 hrs.. I came home beat , as well did the wife and dog, but it was a blast. All in all a great weekend.

Have a great day

[douglas]

Morning! We did the finishing touches on the house this weekend, and pretty much just relaxed, which was nice... it had been a while. We also did laundry with the new washer and dryer!

Enjoyed our 80 degree sunshine, per usual, a nice dinner and bottle of wine on Saturday, and that is all!

 

[stevew]

The football/camera hissy fit was funny yesterday.

Rained yesterday and today.

 

[brungeman]

morning monkeys,

I finally feel like the cold/sinus thing that has been oppressing me, is in its waning moments! (I hope so at least)

Went for a nice ride yesterday at Frick Park in the city. and put on 12+ miles of LONG CLIMB, SHORT DOWNHILL, LONG CLIMB, SHORT DOWNHILL and so on..... I felt pretty strong even though I was continuously hacking up some crap that blended right in with the mud on the trails

got a bunch to do to plan our school ski trip to Vermont and just found out that our department needs to give a mid-term test/grade this is new and completly Fvcks up my grading system so I got that going for me!

This weather has been surreal. I was standing on my deck Saturday night in a short sleeve shirt grilling some burgers. It is not supposed to be 70 degrees in Connecticut in January!!! It's so freaky it doesn't seem real.

Morning ! Raining here today ! so I didn't ride. I don't like cold rain. although for this time of year it should be considered warm rain.

weekenfd was Incredible ! Saturday was very warm as has been said already. did a Buncjh of father son stuff with my Boy.

Sunday Was a road ride and did the last 7 miles of my ride with my son.

12 of us did a 39 mile road ride Sunday, it felt more like 75 miles

I did a Solo 65 Mile ride ,I had done 58 when I got home , so I went to do a couple more to get a Metrice century ( 100 KM ) and My son wanted to join me . so Of course I said YES! SO I did the last 7 with My son

 

[mrbigisbudgood]

Rode some park and some flatland this weekend.

I have a nasty case of ZMF brewing.

 

[Quo Fan]

Morning monkeys! Got up @ 5 with the GF and did a spin on the trainers.

The weather this year is truly f'ed up. I'm diggin' it because the GF isn't complaining about being cold all the time.

Stylish yet safe shirts for cyclists
By Justin Rocket Silverman
amNewYork Staff Writer

January 8, 2007

Laek House tees could pass for a stylized shirt you'd find at specialty shops throughout the city. But once a headlight shines on it, the wearer becomes instantly illuminated.

The reflective shirts are the latest in cyclist apparel from East Village-based silk screener, designer and manufacturer Ethan Benton.

Good morning,

Had a great ride yesterday at Hawes. Tons of climbing for a 12 mile ride. We were treated to a B-17 fly-by when on the top of the mine trail. Falcon Field is southwest so it looked like it was headed right for us when it was first spotted. Saw several other warbirds pass over while we were riding.

Other than that found some excellent music online and burned up the rest of my monthly download allotment.

Have a good day.

 

[narlus]

sweet weekend. the rock show friday (kimchee 10th) wasn't nearly as good as the first, and as i was shooting for the label head, that meant i had to stick around for all the bands...last one didn't get on until about 12:45...i was exhausted.

saturday was unreal, weather-wise...did a run, then went w/ some neighbors to newburyport for dinner and walking around...wearing shorts in early january on a seaport town just isn't right.

had a good ride yesterday, 1st one in a while. back to the grindstone today.

oh, the football games were entertaining too.

 

[Rip]

Morning.

Raining here, and I have a very sore back to boot. Got some good rides in over the weekend, if it lets up some, maybee I'll go and ride later..

 

[DRB]

Got a short road ride in on Saturday. Then really not much beyond that. Was going to do a lot of things but just never got beyond the TV or books or playing with Willow.

She's been a handful at bedtime. All of a sudden she doesn't want to sleep by herself and throws an insane fit until Mommy comes back. Bloody murder kinda screaming. So that's left us a little frazzled. Can't wait for Emma to go out of town Wednesday and Thursday to see how that plays out.

Slammed at work with almost the next 9 months booked for me. That's good and bad.

Hello. Blah, blah, warm weather, blah... I took advantage of it too and took 2 pickup truck loads of crap to the dump that has been in my garage since we moved in 5+ years ago. Old cabinets we ripped out, old sink, etc... Also tore down a big shelf kind of thing in the garage and gained about 50 sq. ft. more usable area. No pics....sorry. Yesterday was spent at my niece's 1st birthday party. That's about it I guess...

Have a good one!

 

[MMcG]

Morning - my legs are tired today, but it was well worth it. Rode with Quo Fan and a non-Monkey yesterday. Good ride - not long, but long enough to put a nice end to a Sunday afternoon!

Single speeding is fun!

Try music. Put on a relaxing, familiar CD for her and see if it does the trick. I've got one that when overtired, she wigs before she sleeps. We'll let her listen to the Curious George soundtrack or some similar music and find her asleep halfway through track 2.

If that doesn't work...........

"Daddy drinks because you cry"

My wife said that last night and she was only half kidding.

Excellent suggestion. Going to try that tonight.

Oddly enough I said that Saturday night.

Morning monkeys, a bit lame today.

Did my first ski day of the season yesterday, trip report on Slopemonkey.

Nursing a sore thumb and knee but getting by. It's a short week this week.

Oh yeah, OSU & Fla tonight, should be a good one!

To me, Boise State is #1. This game means nothing.

 

[robdamanii]

Morning.

70 degree weekend meant LOADS of good riding on Saturday. Bent derailleur hanger facilitated a visit to the LBS to have it straightened.

Other than that, nothing much is going on. Back to class for 9 hours today. Oh what a day it's going to be.

 

[loco-gringo]

Good morning. I got a new car seat for Caroline yesterday. Watched it be cold and windy. Bought some new underwear Saturday. Not much else. Good luck selling the bike.

 

[bluebug32]

As rob said, it was an awesome weekend. Nothing beats riding at Stewart and we were sweating out there in jerseys and shorts. Felt odd to ride our summer trails this time of year though.

 

[bluebug32]

Thanks, man. Now my day's complete.

More then once I can recall Brandy in the OJ, or putting them in the car seat and taking a drive around town at 3 am

 

[BurlyShirley]

Well I was supposed to start work today, but a job got pushed back, so here I sit. Coffee is good. Guess I'll go fishing.

 

[binary visions]

I'm sitting here in an immensely boring class that's essentially "pre-programming" - that is, preparing you to program

It is made far, far worse by the fact that this professor is Asian and has an extremely heavy accent, and mutters half his sentences quietly to boot.

He's probably a really bad driver too.

A guy I worked for was an off-the-boat Chinaman. Spoke with such a heavy accent it was sometimes hard to understand. One day, he was sending us to Beverly, MA to pick up some stuff. He said "Ah-ya, I send you Bervery today." "Where the fvck is Bervery?" So he says it louder and slower Ber-ver-ry. After about 5 minutes, we figured out that it was Beverly.

reminds me of the scene in "Do the right thing" when RadioRaheem is yelling "MICKY FICKY" at the store owner!

 

[TreeSaw]

Morning all! Crappy, rainy day here We got a lot of work in the house done this weekend and I got some time in on the rollers. It rained most of the day Saturday, but it was warm so I took Syd for a nice long walk...she REALLY loves being outside and I hoped the fresh air would do her good because she's got a cold. I am amazed at how happy and good natured she is even when she's sick...I really am a lucky mother.

Anyway, I am now headed to my next school and they haven't had lessons in 2 weeks so it will be interesting to see if anyone remembered their instruments.
