Whatever...

Weather report tells us that the next couple of days are not going to be very good for riding... That mixed with oversleeping let me to bust out a mid-day ride today... Decided to make it count and did some laps on my favorite hill climbing route in the northend of town....
You know, hill repeats only hurt while your doing them...  You can quote me on that one if you want.. I find it very quoteworthy... Anyway....
In between laps 2 and 3 I ran into a handful of chickens on the road... Which got me to thinking...
Man, I love chickens... If they didn't crap so much, I would like to have some in my backyard... I don't know why I like chickens so much, I think its the way they walk.. They just make me smile..
Maybe I can get the boys to change the Ethos logo into a chicken? A green and black chicken... I think the winter has finally gotten to me...

Mini Me, the Hippy and other rambelings...

Got this pic from my wife when I was out riding with the Hippy... Little mini-me starting his reading off right!!! Never too early to start them off...
Better have him reading this than have his uncle Hippy having him read the Playboy he found on the side of the road at the bottom of the hill on Huntoon...
Guess the Hippy was in the need of some mental inspiration before we started climbing the hills in the north end..
Yah, he must have not pushed himself hard enough if he has the energy to go for a nut shot on the top of 2nd street hill..... No pain no gain, you effen hippy!

Well spring training is well on its way, I never really took all that much time off. But had to dust off my little food diary... Countin them calories again... Have to get lean and mean to attempt to keep up with all the manimals in my class and age group... This is going to be a rough season of getting my arse beat down.. Looking forward to it though, I am pretty motivated. Right now anyway... Ha..
Highlighted mtb races for 2011 and it is a very ambitious schedule (for having a baby at home anyway) with 13 races I am going to try my best to make and an additional 7 if I can get away...

That is it for the middle of February... Congrats to BradBob for having his little boy....
Peace....
