30 in 30/Carrot vs Stick/Mudguard.

I am dry as all get out, why? Because I have one of these. oh sure..It ain't rained yet, but man, when it does ( shakes fist at sky)That's right.

Riding nearly every day is a great thing. I do so responsibly, leaving early (or late) to fit around family, but yeah. Love it. The last three days have involved an on/off road ride in the late sunshine, a quick couple of hours before work in the forest (where, as it turns out, a $10000 carbon bike wont actually make you go faster)and another on/off road sojourn today. I rode up a gravel road hill that reminded me of Colville, got to the top and asked myself "what would JB do (probably, I barely know her)??" and duly flipped back down the hill and up and down and back up and back down etc etc. It was awesomeful (lit. of being both awesome and awful).

Duly home, training schedule complete for may and bacon sarnies up in I'm feeling good, if not a little thrown by daylight savings. Work this afternoon with Jos the even tempered, home visit-tastic.

On to far more exciting news, Rebecca and I sampled the first of the Strangeview Gardens yield today.. a baby carrot. it was fucking delicious. more of that business, I say.

Looping back to my original statement " Riding nearly every day is a great thing"I like all good scientists, plan to expand that postulate to test how much greater riding every day will be. I plan to base my study on the stevilian institute of scienceology and metaphoricalism's groundbreaking research and ride 30 in 30. Thirty rides in thirty days. In June. I have gained approval from the ethics committee (Rebecca) and will keep you post with the results. would have do this sooner, but May, all 31 days of it, put paid to that. Fuck you May.

There was a "presumably" drunk guy singing "just a giggalo" at the top of his voice before, dunno what's up with that but man, he just kept focusing on the "I aint got nobody" part. damn. 1100 in the morning on a Sunday. Rough.

And now, on the subject of drunk guys freaking out just a little bit...
