Fak It

I thought I had a blog post in me today but I don't seem to.  Maybe I'm lacking inspiration because I haven't been on my bike for about a week at this point?  For tonight, I had planned on hitting up a free clinic at Allspeed in Portland to learn how to rebuild my fork and bleed my brakes but I am seriously jonesing for a ride.  Conditions are crap right now with a light snow and warm-ish temps but if it cools off a bit by this afternoon I may have to say f-it to the clinic and attend a snow bike clinic instead.  Attendance of one.

Above is my fancy schmancy 2010 men's overall champion trophy.  Something that I'm very proud to have but very embarrassed to see.  It sort of looks like a cross between Superman's crystal man cave thingy and something else that looks like a superman crystal man cave thingy.  I am thankful though that it wasn't a cheesy plastic trophy with a gold wheelie popping bike on top.  I can tell you two things for sure.  One, it will be kept down in the basement with all of the other bike paraphernalia and two, it will be on a high shelf because, god forbid, I have a couple of beers while working on the bike, stumble and land poop shoot first on the business end of that sucker. Try explaining that in the emergency room.

A trophy in the poop shoot is NEVER a good idea. Believe me! OK, I've said too much.

Thanks for pimpin' the rag.

in Canada that's voting age . . . it's also the age for our right of passage - we get bestowed with our own staplers. didn't know that they were not allowed to anyone under 15 did you?

15?1? seriously? shit . . . I am an old, old fart - maybe a little on the creepy side now.
