B-Day


Well I am afraid to say its my bday today. 35 yrs young, no idea i would have made it this long, and virtually unscathed!! Marty party last night but wasn't too into it so i muddled around, socialized a lil and had some "performance Beer". Got up today and had a yummy breaky and coffee and slowly got ready for Mary to take me out for a ride. Shes been a lil owly lately so we need to have a good day and get past that! lol.....Christ its a bike im talking about...im falling off the deep end i think!! haah!!

The whole ride was pretty good. 3.5 hrs on somee hidden trails of the backside of the dump which is now my second favorite trail up there. tight, technical, grunt worthy. really old school and fun, i think anyway!! washed out and slammed a rocky corner on my already uber-tender shoulder and let out a horrific series of "f-bombs"...sorry if anyone was in earshot....needed to be done. came out on the wrong spot of teh connector and asked a couple for directions ( i know yeer saying a man asking for directions??) and tehy got me back on the right path. Basicaly a fire road trail to thetis then the road then the goose. tried to TT the whole way home as thursday i got dropped like 3rd period economics!!! i definately need some work, a lil slow! Passed Dave Shishkoff, feel bad for not saying hi but i was in giv'r mode. flew up to Discovery coffee and had the creamiest espresso i have ever had....YUMMYUMM!!

Showered my filthy ass up, had some grub and took myself out to dinner and a movie....i know, pretty lame solo, but that person is missing! lol. Inglorious Basterds was pretty rad, mildly sickening and all Tarentino. Earls afterward for the best chicken and ribs in the biz ( in my eyes) . Sooo full, thank god i have ice cream for desert and a hottub for my legs!!!
Good night

1st Annual Leechtown Invtational

Today was the first of which I hope are many, Leechtown races. For those of you not familiar with what or where Leechtown is, take a look. In my usual procrastinating way I decided to build my Masi SS late last night for the "race." I figured that a SS would be safe as most of the @stuckylife guys run singles. Man was I surprised when the only two SS ( not including the fixies) were Pro city boys, Colin being the other. Well, no refunds so nut up and enjoy the hurt! I think there were about 26 people out which for a gloomy Sunday is frigging awesome. Good to see Tanya out after nuking her elbow at The Ricky Bobby. It was set up Neutralized for the first 15k or so till Veterans Memorial and after that it was game on. As soon as we were off neutral it was giver. With a lot of road crossings for the next while i realized the single speeds only downfall was with all the yielding, it meant a lot of accelerating. Well i do need work on my starts so take the positive right? It lo

dad

It has been a few days since dad has finally passed away and I honestly don't know what I am feeling. Such a mixture of emotions that I don't have the ability to truly deal with. I had spent 7 weeks with him and watched him deteriorate to the point that no human should reach and it tore my soul apart bit by bit. From the strongest man to the most frail frame imaginable. Nobody should have to go through what he did and conversely nobody that loves him should have to watch it. It is absolutely gut wrenching. If I had to do this solo I wouldn't make it. Being back here I find myself not really caring about anything other then Mical and us living our life. Not motivated to work hard at the shop even though I truly do enjoy work and all its foibles!! I just want to ride my bike, eat good food and have fun with my girlfriend. I don't think that's to much to ask is it? To bad about that money part!! Mical will just have to become a venture capitalist!!! ;) I am supposed t

Rest Day

Image
I wasn't going to ride at all today, give the knee and shoulder and day off. Decided I would be Lil Suzy Homemaker and take care of a bunch of stuff for the family. Well.....that only took like 3 hrs. And there is so much more time in the day. A lil chilly today so I geared up around 3 and headed out for just a slow and light spin. I don't know why I keep telling myself I can do slow and light, but I will keep trying!! Head down to waterways and cut off up the path as this is only going to be an hour spin...right? Chugging up the hill, knocking the crust off of my sleepy knees. Cresting the hill I decide to go the back way through some quad trails, cross the "bridge" and through rotary and back down to waterways...sounds easy right? Riiiiiiight!! These trails are so fun because they are sooo muddy. Slipping and drifting around like a 10 yr old who's mom said " Now have fun but stay outta the puddles!!" The mud is also what makes these trails difficult.
