No you shouldn't have. I did and let me tell you the "waves" aren't the way
you think they would be.

OK -
went out for a Saturday spin with my crazyfun friends. Half the predicted
group bailed... they had to clean the garage and wash their hair. So it was
just me, Tuffgrrl and her SO the big guy.

The trail is soft and sandy, I had to be reminded that it poured the other
day. We have Beacon to ourselves. It's damp and cold in town, but there's an
inversion so it's almost warm on top. Today's plan is just riding; last
time I was here the some of the gang had to go off every jump out there, but
those guys aren't with us today.

I have so much fun with these two... there's a lot of flow. No jockeying or
posing... it just works. Somehow I always end up in front for the climbs,
and then the big guy on his VP Free ( is that right?) is out on front on the
downgrades, tuffgrrl on her heckler is usually out there too... but it just
works. We ride most of the trails backwards from how we usually do, which
is a nice change.

On the way down, the big guy starts yelling PIG PIG PIG... tuffgrrl and I
are a bit back, we are thinking "wtf?" I'm thinking he saw some of his DH
buddies and is giving them [censored].... Well whaddya know, there is a huge PIG
on the trail!! ???!!!! He won't get off the trail either, so we all slow
way down and he's trotting down the trail.... hilarious. Finally he (she?)
runs off into the bushes and we finish our ride. It starts to rain just as
we get back to the lot, perfect timing!!

Wow, I've been stopped by sheep, cows, horses (of course) and various
varmints, but never by a PIG! (If it had been a hot day, you might have
been...bakin'?)

to be confused with the dinghy J G is serving aboard.

There wil be no talk od such matters untill I get some liberty with the
Missus.

That would be an "Amphibious Transport Dock"
Donlt know WHY they would call a ship and dock,
But....... hey, since when did the military make sense?-)

Funny from the first pic, I thought LSD. But I couldn't get around the
old LSD-32, of which I think all have gone the way of the Spiegel
Grove, so I knew I was wrong. Just goes to show that I have been away
from the water way too long.

Then again the largest vessel I served on was still a boat, but
ballast her down and keep the diesels at 3,500 and she could push or
(pull) nearly 1,000 times her displacement (72 tons). She was also a
stable platform for AToN and SARR.

Okay, here goes:

Took out my Ground Control, hooked up the trailer.

Rode up and down the sidewalk towing a sign reading "Layaway your bikes for
Xmas!"

The McPherson Strut performed flawlessly in the dips and hollows of the
driveways!

RR: Midtown NYC to Brooklyn via the West Side Greenway
Uh, I was on my way home, cutting across 55th street downhill to the
West Side Greenway on the track bike yesterday, when a car (midsize,
nondescript, Asian make) in traffic swerved into me. I turned the bars
parallel and sideswiped, BANG!, into my recently sprained right wrist
and hip. I glanced off, rolled a little ways, stopped, looked around,
and saw that I'd knocked off his rearview mirror. I figured I'd be a
bit bruised, but I was in too blithe a mood to get into a yelling
match so I rode off.
That's my second rear view mirror. I've also smacked up a right front
fender, and dented a Ford Escort's hood into a birdbath. Oh, and hit
three doors as they were opened suddenly... plus a few jaywalking
pedestrians... all over decades of riding mind you.
I've got the wrist splint back on today.
La lee la!

You know, "spinning", where they use one of those wheel gizmos to turn wool
into yarn.
Obviously it's a bit harder to get macho navy males to these sorts of
classes, but it sure
beats getting jumpers mailed to you from home for those cold nights at sea
