206: Clydesdale

Saturday the DCCoD had a donut ride out of our house. On the recommendation of Fort James, I picked up a dozen from the local bakery, as there is no donut shop on this route. I mean you can't have a donut ride without donuts.

following a nice ride that was dubbed a fixie ride

but really only had Fitzy and I on fixies, we tore up those fine fresh donuts. Peaches and his boy stopped by to share a donut too. Good times, Good call James.

Sunday, this guy:

lead Lauri and

I around the fun frozen trails of Marsh Creek.

The "bonus loop" was my favorite. The twisty terrain that raced up and down through forrest was incredibly fun. This section reminded me of what Middle Run was before it got all pussified.

The new RIK built wheels finally had the bastard son climbing less like a short bus, and more like, well a bicycle. It was great fun. Bike still turns funny, but it's damn fun to ride.

after the ride Surly Bob, L-Webb and I headed for the MASS promoter's meeting which went pretty well. As the meeting started, I was informed that they are adding a clydesdale class this year. John Miller, said he knew I could make weight, that there was finally a class for fatmarc! everyone laughed. I am faticus after all. It was pretty damn funny.

If they only knew how close to that I am. A couple more beers, a couple more pints of ben and jerry's and you never know, I could be fastest fat guy....

bikes are fun.

respect.
