Maryland Riding

If you're bored at looking at the same old Nevada pictures, go check out some cool pictures from Maryland over at Scott's Blog. Scott (The Sarge) used to ride with us at lunch everyday for a couple years. Those were some good times...

Russel's Revenge

Years ago, we named this climb "Russel's Revenge". Scott was the first one in the gang to make the climb without stopping, so we gave him the honors. The hill continues to get steeper at the top. Right when you are almost ready to give up, there is a choice between whoop-de-dos and a slippery off-camber side. There is more traction on the side, but you must sprint through it so you don't fall into the whoops and spin out.


Todd displayed the common side effects of Russel's Revenge. Severe oxygen depletion and nausea.



The view from the top ain't bad!



I rode again after work and got to see the trail in a different light.

You May Be A Bachelor If...

Scott (aka "The Sarge") sent me this picture yesterday. Apparently the weather was so foul in Maryland that he brought his bike into the kitchen. The first thing that came to my mind was, "You may be a bachelor if...".

Scott's sister decided to go with the theme and came up with a few. Feel free to add yours to the list!

You may be a bachelor if:

1) you bring the bike into the kitchen to save it from the wind

2) You used the pull-out hose from the sink and its dish washing liquid to wash
it.

3) You used bath towels to wipe it dry leaving your girlfriend with nothing but
paper towels to dry off with after a shower.

4) You microwave a pizza and let it cool on the seat of your bike that sits in
the kitchen.

5) You string Christmas lights around your bike for a month cuz it's too cold to
ride and call it your home decoration.
