You know just last week, somebody asked me what my favorite restaurant was, and very matter of a factly I responded, “La Tol Tecca” , but I have to admit, Diane , who really has never liked the place, and I just got home and our experience and it was awful. First the service sucked, not by fault of the waitresses, for the entire restaurant they only had 2 people covering all the tables on a Friday night. Okay, I’m sympathetic to an overworked waitress and tip well, but the food, well the food was sub par. And very frankly this is not the first time I had bad food here. My dinner tonight was okay, but I started to get heart burn before I could even finish it. Good burritos don’t do that to a man. Luckily I was throwing back margaritas and the tequila killed off the heart burn pretty quickly. Sad to say, I no longer have a favorite restaurant, as La Tol Tecca that used to be the Valhalla of local Mexican eateries has gone south for me. You can’t have that inconsistent delivery of quality and expect to remain my favorite place. Damn, it if I want taco bell I’ll eat off the damn 99 cent menu.
Diane and I stole an hour of sunlight today and got into the Gallagher section of fairhill. we basked in the warmth and crusied over the single track. Diane rode well, she was looking super good with her new hair due. She was a little bummed because her favorite snow valley jersey is getting a little sussed out and her new secret Henry’s team gear isn’t in just yet. But the ride was really fun, and we talked shit, and rode a trail that was once destroyed horses, but is now open and pretty rad again. It was a nice ride, and we finished off just as the sun kissed the horizon. Yeah, very cool. Aside from a bad meal, Friday evening was pretty damn rad, and although the food sucked, the margaritas were top notch for sure.

Dude, there's a great Indian place on Elkton Rd in Newark, it's always treated me good through the years.
YO, riding back from VF park last weekend and saw Mr. Bright Orange, AKA Brandon Ott on his MTB. I asked him to grab my wheel and he, Thea and I TT'd for about 15 minutes close to 30mph, with a tailwind of course. He's sick, I was like dude, when's your first race, he was like, dude this is my first ride on a bike in 2 and 1/2 months. That guy rocks! Yo, I'll buy your HR monitor from you if you are 100% serious. I haven't ridden with one since 2003 and need to remember how my heart feels at certain stages (mainly for warming up. Let me know dude.
ride on!

How's the guitar playing coming?
I know what you're saying man, some of my favorite rides are with the wifey. Nothing like spending some quality time with the other half while on a bike.
