Jay ? how's the A/C ? I have no A/C. It's 97 degrees currently. Predicted 105 tomorrow and 108 on Thursday. I'll be sleeping in the basement. AND DRINKING GALLONS AND GALLONS OF WATER because I don't want to have a deadly thirst incident. BIKE CONTENT: Cannondale is giving me a new CX frame. Not exactly what I wanted, but it's free. Now I have too many bikes. Maybe I'll sell the frame. -- Jay Beattie. |

We (my wife and I, riding tandem) were on a pretty leisurely club ride a couple weeks ago. A new young guy had showed up, and we were riding along chatting with him. He said he rides to stay in shape for his other sports, etc. As we talked, one of our club members who's notorious for such behavior decided to hit high gear and crank away out front for a while, then wait for the rest of the crew to catch up. When he did that, the newbie suddenly ended our conversation, saying something like "Excuse me now..." and took off. I though "Excuse me???" and told my wife "Let's go." So we reeled him in and were a comfortable ten feet behind when he caught the rabbit. For icing on the cake, our rabbit guy (as he always does) left the leisurely riders for the last five miles or so to crank in at 20 - 25 mph . My wife and I were close behind, and the newbie was a distant third. It was quite satisfying. But with a tandem, terrain is everything. If it weren't fairly flat, we'd happily ride back with the leisurely crowd. (P.S. Don't interpret this tale as a claim that I could stick with Jay, Tom or Duane, let alone James.) I'm old and slow. I wouldn't ride with you because you'd be in the middle of the road. I'd keep saying, "hey Frank, get over here. You're going to get whacked." You would scold me for being a gutter bunny, although I don't ride on the fog line and rarely ride anywhere with a gutter. We'd ride up on Joerg who would have a pannier full of water, a couple CPUs and a growler. He'd be complaining about psychopaths in cars and the fact that his Gazelle didn't come with factory rack-mounts and room for 35mm steel belted tires or a o-ring chain. He'd have to stop every fifteen minutes to pee. I don't think this NG would want to ride together. Only one pee on a 4-5h ride. My PSA test came back 0.4ng/ml so no "urge to go" from that department. However, I might bow out of the r.b.t. peloton the millisecond I spot a brewpub. You son would probably already be in the next county by then and leave us old farts behind. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ My feeling on the matter is: Do NOT drink a 12-pack of beer the nite before riding the 5 Miles of Hell trail in Utah. No 12-packs from the store here, it's only our own brew. The good stuff. Depends where you buy your beer. My local store has an awesome selection: http://www.rainydayportland.com/2012...multnomah.html Here is our Marco's Cafe, in the middle of this page: http://www.gonewiththewynns.com/gold-country-ca Great place. Food is mediocre at best but good brews and good live music. With dancing. Beer is passe. There's a brewpub or brewery on every Portland street corner. http://www.portlandbeer.org/breweries You can get good Oregon brewed bottled IPAs at Costco. That is a major line-up. We don't have quite that selection but it's adequate. However, since I started brewing my own it only matters during rides. On some MTB rides far off civilization I take a home brew along. Surpringly it stays very cool in a stainless double-wall thermos and the constant shaking doesn't seem to harm it much. Now it's about cannabis -- and maybe hard cider . . . or mead. Hell, I don't know. No, no . . . its artisanal booze: http://www.distilleryrowpdx.com/ Try their Hopka: http://www.indiospirits.com/ Good stuff, just don't ride after too many of those. There are also in Portland. Where else? It gets exhausting trying to keep up with the latest food or drink craze. I look forward to the return of non-artisanal Heineken and tater-tots. I draw the line at cannabis and all that junk. I won't touch it, after having seen first hand in the Netherlands where that leads. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ |
