This is my last day of work for the week. I'll be at the Dr's tomorrow so I just took the rest of the day off. I want to take my dog for a walk in the woods. I may ride my bike. :)

How's everybody doing today?

Hey folks!

Nothing like a good hooky-day, stosh. It's good for the soul. Hope you and Bruzer have a good time!

Spent some time out at the trails yesterday getting the leaves blown off the jumps and moving a lot of random limbs that have fallen over the last month. We've been hitting my trails pretty hard for the last two years without any significant maintainence, and they've about reached the point where some serious love is needed to get everything snappy again. Many of the jumps have gotten too mellow and need to have new lips packed on and landers beefed up. I think I'll spend most of the weekend trying to get that started.

Didn't do too much after I got home.....wife went out to meet up with some friends, so the dog and I hung out, ordered some subs, and watched "Jericho" & "Lost."

Just landed a bike company job so I'll be moving from an east coast shop to a west coast company. Really excited about it and getting back into riding in Ca.

The place I really want to ride is closed. I'm not sure where I want to go with him.

Mornin'. Work has really sucked this week, but it's Friday for me. I'm taking tomorrow off to ride since the forecast looks like rain and snow for the next six months.:disgust: Did I mention ride my new bike.:brows:

Morning - worked on my bike last night (see she's coming along thread for a pick) and then just chilled with Laura the rest of the evening.



I love working on bikes. Grease, tools, music, beer, - I find it relaxing and "my time" if you will. Good stuff.

Tonight - hockey!

Am I seeing that wrong or do I see a fully rigid single speed 29/26?

That's for spraying on hockey equipment and bike gear (gloves, pads and whatnot).
I wonder how bad the chemicals in that stuff is for your skin and what-not.

I use Fabreeze sparingly.

Congrats again on the job move.
Do you have a week or so off between jobs?

I gotta get to Stewart for a night ride. I've been going to Vassar and the 909. Are there many people riding there at night? I love that place.
