Tuesday Morning Road Ride

Road tubies on the Spooky.  I finally got them trued (thanks Brent at LTR) and decided to do one road ride on them before I pulled the Schwalbes I glued on there 2 months ago to swap for the Tufo cross tires.  And yes, there is a saddle bag on there, and no it does not have an extra tubular in it.  When you dont have water bottle cages you run out of pocket room quickly.

So maybe it wasn't as good a ride as I planned.  Eddie and I did Little Park yesterday and I may have overestimated my current level of awesomeness (but not by much mind you).

Maybe it's a bit chilly for a bike wash

Is there anything that isn't made better by Nutella? Probably not.

Frosty Morning Ride

I left the house this morning around 7 for the first below freezing ride of the fall.


You know it's fall when the leaves are on the ground, there is frost on the roof, and cross barriers are in the yard.


A frosty sunrise over the park.


Sweet truck. I want it.


Caution: bridge may be icy! The first tire slip of the fall was right here. The combination of icy bridges and Colorado River fog makes for some pretty sketch sections around town. But with less and less daylight you just have to suck it and hope for the best

Saturday

Saturday morning we went on a quick hike before the gamecocks played. We tried to hike on the monument but there was a marathon happening and the roads were closed. Instead we drove up little park and did this cool hike that pretty much leads nowhere but has some decent views.











The rest of the day was spent around this


And like this


And


And lots of football. Then a little karaoke to end the night

 Everyone enjoying a beautiful 40 degree and raining day.  Except Benji, he just decided to sit in the car.

 Nervous laughter...

 Lap 1 barrier chaos.

 WHAT! First lap pwn-age.

 Nate and Eddie opting for the conservative approach.

 Happy times on Eddies brand new 'cross bike.

 Yucking it up with second place after my almost crash.

 He's still on my wheel a lap later, this is when I knew he was eventually gonna beat me:(

 Cleaning the barriers after only one night of drinking and practice.
