Riding lately?

[Beefmaster_Mark]

It seems like it has been forever since I've seen you guys! 

Between the holidays, my need for new tires, and the RAIN ON THE WEEKENDS!!!, I have barely ridden at all in the past two months.  Christmas Eve was the last time I was on a twisty road (on a bike at least).

This post was going to be a "let's go ride Saturday" post but it's supposed to rain yet again this weekend.  And unlike Jim and Bill, I am a total fair weather rider.   

I braved the 405 rush hour and rode in today, just so I can get a little seat time this week!

Should we tentatively plan for a Cerro ride in March sometime?

It's been way too long since we've all hung out!  I haven't ridden much either in the last couple of months or even broken in my new leathers!  My bike's being serviced right now by Racinteach otherwise I would've at least snuck out last week.  Oh well.

Cerro in March sounds good.  How about the 6th?  That is if El Nino hasn't dumped more rain and snow up there!

i'd be down for a march 6 cerro noroeste ride.  haven't had a good run on that road on my current bike.

There's rain in the forecast for the weekend of the 6th but let's hope it stays dry.  On a side note, I picked up my bike from racinteach tonight and it actually sounds and runs better (he did a major service on it).  Typically it's hard for me to notice the difference but this time I can.  Of course when your mechanic tells you the old air filter was full of dragonflies, big moths, bees and other crunchy critters, it's no wonder the bike runs better after it was changed.     Looking forward to getting it out on a real ride.

I need to have Tige work on all my bikes.   I had a major garage leak during all that rain...bikes got dirty but I don't think any are seriously damaged.  Been awhile since I went riding...gotta learn all over again

Camille!  Like, where the hell have you been, woman!?

Looks like March 6th isn't going to work out - more rain is on its way.     This reminds me of 2005 when we still had snow on ACH in June.  And I've got new gear I need to break in!

i have little faith in these weather prognosticators.  let's give it another few days to make any firm plans or cancellations.

Can I just say, and I am glad that we are getting rain because the West desperately needs it:  this is total B.S. that it keeps raining on the weekends!

A combination of super busy and lingering illness.  Owen's bike is almost finished, the Jetta's bumper has been repainted, I bought a used truck and have lately developed a passion for loose leaf teas.

Hope to see you soon!!
