Customers comes from all walk of life
From homeless to middle class working and professional who doesn't care about eating cheap and greasy foods
Normally the line is longer than in this picture.
 
Went to peddlers, so I decided to go ride on the beach. It was a Qwest to find the perfect sand. I thought I was a little nuts until I saw 2 paddleboarders in the ocean. Did 25 mins. It harder than I thought. Only posting o be picture.

Update and stuff.

Well here we are in week 5! After a good run of cold weather which kept the trails frozen, and in some cases snow covered, we are in a warming trend.

I haven't done anything about the trainer numbers in the data, as only one person has sent me corrections.
I'll probably go through at some point and put people in a composite class - no bigs.

Scoreboard is updated through 6am this morning. Keep riding!!!

i turned my trainer rides from 2 weeks ago private so they arent on strave anymore, hopefully that helps

Grumpy? I find it hilarious that people who've never met me think I'm grumpy. If you ever met me you'd find out I'm pretty much the opposite.

Anywho, merely pointing out proper BIYF ride posting etiquette, as enforced by @stb222 - I get slammed all the time for bike pics and selfies!

My good friend Tommy Bahama hasn't been out on a spin in I can't remember how long. The last time we were hanging out with our mutual Irish friend, I was needling him a little to try to get him back out there, and he started going on about how his frame's too small/back hurts/tire knobs too noisy/fork too plush, wubby sore/etc. I know, mee too, get over it.

So, one by one, I removed his excuses from the equation with logic, and actually convinced him to get the setback seatpost so his "frame would grow," relatively cheaply. Buy the best and buy it once/30.9 fits a lot of frames/don't need a new bike to get out on a ride. This was around the holidays, and so he got it, and installed it, and I finally dragged him out last night for his first ride in awhile; a shred of HHT gnar up to Keyport. Stopped for a beer, then headed back; it was colder than I had figured, but not too bad. Nice to hang with The Tombinator again.

Come to think of it, I haven't been able to get out too much lately either. Lots of stuff going on. Maybe tomorrow....

Wildcat Ridge WMA area. Went exploring some of the old rail beds that I had not been on before to understand some “connections”. There was actually some magic snow up by Lake Denmark. Start/finish from bat-cave lot. A couple scenic pics below and a couple from the obscure category...

Managed to squeeze in a quick ride after work before I ran out of daylight. I saw two eagles in their nest. It looked like they were feeding because I kept seeing the heads going up and down, then back and forth like they were tearing at something. Unfortunately I couldn't get a decent pic with my phone. I watched for about 5 minutes before pushing off. It felt good to get out today.

Futile attempt to zoom in and capture a pic of the eagles feeding

Long shadows signalling that daylight is quickly running out....time to head home
