Jesus. WTF did I do to my back?
I feel like hammered shit
Doesn't help. It's hell getting old.
After work I took a 4 mile walk through the vinyards, Had a Llama charge me until he ran into a fence lol. then at dusk beer in hand I watched the Barn Owls take flight most excellent. Going to roast here today as the forecast is for 100*
and now for some good coffee
and now for some good coffee
Too many rivets or not enough chem trails
Jesus. WTF did I do to my back?
Probably going to prowl around scoping a new trail.
Morning! Humid and wet as ufck early today. We must have gotten more rain in the past four days than in the past four months. Wet roots and rocks were certainly fun but the trails were a bit too damp. Let's see if we get some hero dirt tomorrow.
Fell off the wagon eh?
super early dawn patrol dirt church. when you only ride once every 3 weeks, it's probably not smart to start it with a 14 mile climb (granted it was a forest road climb, but still). it was sooo worth it, but I am le toast.

Holy fuck was it nasty hot and humid this morning. Pure evil and made for a miserable ride on top of the fresh cut spongy loamy trails.
Yesterdays ride was so much more pleasant with the overcast 70° temps.
Beer, bong shed and soaking in the ocean on tap.
Been a rough couple week family wise, culminating with news that my mom has lung cancer (non smoker).
Waiting to see specialist for prognosis but not looking good.

Kaliber: non alcoholic Guiness
About to start swapping parts on my Karate Monkey OPS for the Race To The Top of Vermont and, enjoying my first Two Roads IPA - Lil' Heaven.
Must spread rep so if ya'all wondering why rep, this. Cats R Cool.
Is there a wedding hashtag?
That sounds like overachieving to me, also a dangerous precedent and living on the edge. Bond, James Bond would be proud.
30 mile schlep up Mt Rainier yesterday. Legs are fucking toast, riding the couch today.
Lots of rocks, and ice.

Dude 30 miles on your feet in a day? No spanks!
Sucks about your mother, dan-o.
Mariko complained the whole hike long. Starting about 100 feet from the car she started a "my legs are tired, I want to ride in the backpack" refrain, replaced by "I can't sleep, I can't sleep" once back in the car. (She ended up sleeping.)
We ended up ignoring her such that she hiked 1.5 miles before the conversion to parent-powered locomotion. Wife walked 2.2, I did an even 3 via an extra spur to a lookout. Yuna and Mariko seemingly nearly weigh the same now, which is just as well since I had one or the other of them in the carrier the whole time.
Then we found actually decent Asian food way out in the southern boonies of Littleton; http://jpsasianbistro.com/ . I tipped well--got to support my fellow Asians, even if they are Korean and not Japanese.

Weekend of thin air, massive views, fine ass trails, mach-chicken descending, borderline hypothermia, gas, tree lines, more stupidity via gravity, and tales of the very rare rocky mountain hippopotamus.
Did 5 flat miles up a dirt road on the bike. 10 miles one way and 5200' elevation on foot.
I also got to drive my friends Focus RS on the way home. That car is a hoot on a winding mountain road.
Went for a ride on my friends Harley. It was fun. Ate expensive Italian cold cuts and cheeses by the pool. Smoked a Cuban. Drank expensive whiskies and wines. Corn on the cob and steamers....
That was TBBXC last ride before calling its quits, we rode up Ape Canyon... up to Ape Canyon??? It was cool.30 mile schlep up Mt Rainier yesterday. Legs are fucking toast, riding the couch today.
Lots of rocks, and ice.
Wrong volcano. Ape canyon is St Helen's, this is Rainier.
Will be hitting St Helen's in the next week or two.
Oh yeah... too many volcanos for my mind to sort out. It was a KICK ASS group ride.
Except parking was fucking horrendous, get there early.
