Had a nice weekend of riding - a road ride, a mountain ride, and a few townie rides.
As usual, the road ride was spent in conversation about dream bikes and crazy people (a psychological term), as well as creating a comprehensive list of excuses for not bike commuting (three words Dan: six flat miles.)
The mountain ride started out on a super foggy morning. Visibility was about 100 meters. Then it cleared into a perfect riding day. Jim and I took the lower creek trail in the canyon below Brown Mtn. A few stream crossings, and a nice mix of cyclists, runners, and walkers.
The townie rides took me by the library to return some John Muir books (can’t get enough of him lately), a few other odds and ends, and then lunch/beer/newspaper at the end of the bar. Ahhh…
And one short run.
Last Week:
Run: 28 = 7+18+3
Bike: 65 = 3+4+(21+7)+(21+9)
Burrito: 3
Beer: 12 = 2+1+6+3
Car: 16

I wish my commute was 6 flat miles -- oh wait -- it is ...
Yeah, a flat six is just fine isn’t it? (They even use them in Porsches - haha.) So, how can we convince my friend Dan to ride to work once a week? Beer bribes?
I just noticed your reading list - I am sure you know the eBernd Heinrich is the definitive expert on the "Mind of the Raven" ... A topic that is pretty difficult to unlock.
I hadn’t heard of Mind of the Raven. Looks good. I like the idea of the ancient connection between man, raven, and wolf. One more for the list. Thanks.
The guy at the end of the bar with the newspaper. There is one in just about every town. Only the good one ride bikes though.
MLS Cup in LA next year. Well, near LA. The Home Depot Center. Brandon and I will be there for sure. (maybe).
I’m actually just the understudy to the guy with the newspaper at the end of this bar, but someday I hope to take over the leading role.
Well, then we should all definitely (maybe) drop by the bar for an MLS victory celebration.
