Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, it's been too long

O.K. so I'm a lazy slacker!

Been on the bike a few times in the past couple of weeks but not got round to writing anything down - now those rides are lost to poor memory and too much beer - BOLLUX!

Th past few weeks have been blighted though - appears the cycling gods are angry! MLW went out on a ride two weeks back and only one of the seven riders made it back unscathed! Bummer. Later that night I got stopped by the cops heading out for my weekly night ride, and even after fluttering my eyelashes at the nice lady policewoman still ended up with a ticket!

But the miles have been going in (though not consistently enough) on both the fixie and the SS 29er, been hitting some new or long forgotten trails at Patapsco and taking on some serious elevation and decending - even cleared the first pitch of Patarini hill and the entireity of the double drop decent (on the same ride) whoa! Met walkers going up and coming down and it was cool to see the "you're riding a bike on these paths!" look in their eyes.

Sunday ride was another bust! With MLW and a few friends, just getting warmed up when one guy actually shears his saddle mount. Just as we were getting ready for some sweet single track we had to be sensible and head back to the trail head or risk serious injury.

Enough of my bloody whinging though - tomorrows night riding time and hopefully the weather gods and cycling gods will have been content with the chaos they have rained down on us for the past 14 days and will let us blow off some steam and release some endorphins. I'll keep you posted.

Cheers
