The reports called for snow and destruction, the end of civilization as we know it. I looked at the radar, saw the green, but it wasn't that big. I saw that it was also kind north of us. I'm not 
meteorologist but usually the stuff from the west, trends north up the coast. But if I wanted to ride Saturday, I better get it in early...

But god damn the weather channel, accuweather.com and the new journal's forecast, all proclaimed the end of days, or at least the end of trail riding for days...
So as the sun barley creeped it's head over the horizon, I was in the parking lot at Fairhill 
meeting up with JDUB and Dan MC. (far right) Oh yes, when most of you were rolling over and fluffing the pillow, I was trying to hang on to JDUB's wheel in desperation. I said to him, "why you going so hard John?" He'd say to me, "because you're on my wheel."

I said to him, "why you going so hard John?" He'd say to me, "because you're on my wheel."We both knew this was going to be a chicken and the egg thing, because clearly I wasn't going to let that wheel go, and he wasn't going to slow down..." Nevermind the slight hangover I was 
nursing, we were getting in a ride that everyone else would miss because today was Armageddon weather wise. We were bad asses sacrificing sleep to get one more trail ride in, while all you suckers were fast asleep. The sleet, snow rain. It's all coming...

We were bad asses sacrificing sleep to get one more trail ride in, while all you suckers were fast asleep. The sleet, snow rain. It's all coming...We threw down a couple laps on the Fairhill course (spring edition not summer). By 10:00 we were done, by 11:00 I had eaten at the post house and was ready for bed.
Sadly, I had some real world responsibilites to tend to. So I drank a huge cup of coffee. I don't 
usually drink coffee at all. Later that night, Buddy the Leg Breaker, let me know what a great ride he had at 12:30pm. How warm and how beautiful it was. ARRRGHHH foiled again !!

At midnight, when I lie in bed exhausted yet unable to sleep, from the huge cup of coffee I drank,
I kept think of Buddy sleeping in, then frolicking on the trails in the warmth. fuck you weather man. fuck you very much.
Sunday was the PEEPS ride. 50 miles, flat windy, amnesty pace. The group pulled Diane and I around for most of the day. It was fun, and then we all ate candy after the ride. Perfect easter celebration...respect
