Ride bikes last night, then drank beer, put the kid to bed and ate wings. Got woken up by an owl at like 5am. Then had to deal with a nasty shitty diaper. More bikes this morning at least.

Frost at Kingdom Trails.
Fire up the coffee maker
'Morning. Hanging out at KT with a bunch of monkeys. Yesterday was tiring; 22 mile run in the morning, drive to Kingdom Trails (four hours), 15 miles of MTB. Slept like a goddamn rock.
Realized last night I haven't kissed a girl since High School - where does the time go?

went to a lesbian bachelorette party last night. i was the only dude invited. we headed out to a burlesque show, then drank at a bar in downtown until a fight closed the place down.
MTB. 18.4 miles, 2400' of climbing. I'm beat. Shoulda gone for a run instead.
Just spent 5 hours patching the right side of the campers roof after the wife rubbed it up against a low hanging branch and tore the rubber membrane. Still have to replace the roof rack rail and AC cover.

You won't hurt the bike in the rain
Fantastic day here today. The weather is perfect. Just finished up a ride with a buddy. I dragged him out for his first ride this year. Apparently he forgot that you are supposed to lift the front wheel over logs. Guy tried plowing over one and totally ate it. I admit, I lol'd.
Also, assholes who let their dog poop at the trail head and not pick it up, are in fact assholes. I got poop on my new shoes and smeared it on my crank. Amusing.
DH tomorrow. Should have a group of 5-8 guys. Gonna be good!
Aside from the bushings, I don't know what it would take to really hurt that frame.You won't hurt the bike in the rain

Yeah, why do hikers let their dog's poop on the trails and just leave it ? When I see Mr. Precious's little trail treats, I scoot them off the trail with a stick so someone like you doesn't accidentally spread the love.
What's weirder though is seeing multiple wads of toilet paper on the trail about eight feet from the trailhead. Really, you can't walk a couple of extra feet to do your business behind a tree. One day a rider is going to come bombing down the trail to encounter said offender. Would love to see the GoPro for that one.
I think they're is a special level of hell where you spend your days installing fenders on bikes.
I hope to get a ride in tomorrow... It's the best time of year to ride and I think I've only ridden maybe 4x this month...

Even better...
How about the folks that take the time to pick up the poop with a little bag and then proceed to hang it from a nearby tree...
Haven't seen one hanging from a tree, but have spotted several along the trail. Most of them neatly tied, weird.
Do you encounter many discarded under-garments along the trail up there in Canadiastan ?
None.
