A light ride on Thanksgiving morning before the neighborhood football game is something I've done for three years now with my son. This was the first year I could do it on Rivendells and my son set his alarm clock this time! 11 miles at 26 degrees in central NJ - a new record! On Friday, Nove

Short little ride w/ the boy, in which I went OTB riding down some terraced orange groves. D'oh! Scratched up and a sore neck and hand to show for it. No pics to prove it happened though. On 11/28/13, Tom Virgil wrote: > Did I really say "Mush to do"? My goodness, I need do do food coma now. >

25 to my sister's place in Kapolei for the family gathering, 21 miles back to a early evening repast, 4 slow, rather stuffed, miles home. The Hunq did just fine. I'm a little weary. The weather wasn't quite the best I've ever seen...but close: http://24.media.tumblr.com/0c2a2627603c4befc687d4790a

13 miles on Sam Hilborne down to Torrey Pines beach. Mostly beautiful, but I did hit a warm rain on the way back through the maple leaves on the 56 bikeway. Mush to do before and after to help Dear Wife. Louie dealt with a food coma.
