Felt a lot better this weekend as I headed out to ride Centennial cone. It
was a very nice morning, and I figured I would take a nice leisurely paced
ride by myself. I started at the newest part of the park (Mayhem Gulch
Trail). It was actually a very enjoyable switchback climb that I finished
faster than I thought. I did the whole loop but it certainly felt like
more climbing than I remember. Oh well. The downhills were fun even
though I stopped more times than I can remember for uphill riders. I
passed two groups of hikers whom I stopped to chat with and remind them of
the odd/even biker/hiker weekends. They were not aware of this having
started at Mayhem Gulch which still has no sign. I really didn't care
that they were on the trail, I just wanted to warn them that riders will
be flying down the trail not expecting hikers. They thanked me and went
back down.

I handed out two packs of Emergen-C to two different bonking riders. As
for me, I was breathing well again. It turns out that besides my normal
exercise induced asthma, I had a low grade infection in my lungs last
week. I didn't realize I was sick until I started to get a fever blister.
I always seem to get them when I am sick with no real signs. A few
antibiotics later and I am good to go! No pics because I was trying to
travel light today. I did the 17 mile loop in about 2.5 hours. Not a bad
pace for me.

I just bought a box of Emergen-C, haven't had a chance to really try it,
does it seem to work well? I think it taste rather flat and bland, but am
hoping it works better than Gatorade on hot humid days when I sweat a lot.

I swear by the stuff. It has saved me a few times. I don't know what's
in it, but it works. My first use was when I was in Copper Canyon,
Mexico. I was only 30 minutes into a ride when the energy was just
sapped out of me (must of been the damn Mexican Pancakes I had at
breakfast - they were like lead). Within 10 minutes I was a new man.

I use it in a concentrated state. When I need it, I tear open the top
and make a small cup with it. Then just fill it with water and let it
fizz. Drink and repeat until all the powder is gone.

That too.

Funny story...

I was invited to perform on a stage during the fourth at a park in
Highlands Ranch. It was an impromptu jam session. I get there and the
only people are the guitar player in my band and some hippy dude who had
a guitar with a million pedals, computer, and synth modules hooked to
it. We ended up doing some acoustic versions of our songs until the
next hippy dude showed up with a dirigadoo (sp?). The freaking thing
only plays one note. Then the other hippy dude starts playing sitar
music. They take a break and go behind the stage and theres a strong
smell of pachuli. They come back with their eyes red as blood and offer
some "special" brownie. No, I did not partake but we did end up plying
a psychodelic hippie version of Golden Earing's Twilight Zone. It was a
strange day.

Yeah, I know this has nothing to do with Emergen-C but you did mention
cocaine.

"Henri Pélissier, winner of the 1923 Tour, surprised a journalist by
emptying a bag of ampoules on to the table after he abandoned the race
the year after.

'Cocaine drops in the eyes; chloroform to rub in the gums. This is how
we survive. You want to see the pills, too?' A career run on that sort
of fuel was no preparation for a long and peaceful retirement. Five
years after he laid down his bike, Pélissier's wife shot herself; soon
afterwards, his replacement companion shot him dead with the same gun
after he went at her with a knife.

Following their widespread use in the war, amphetamines were for
decades thereafter the cyclist's drug of choice. No one thought worse
of the great Fausto Coppi when he casually revealed near the end of an
incredible career that he'd taken la bomba 'when it was necessary'.

And how often was that? 'Almost always.' Jacques Anquetil, who won
five Tours in the 1960s, proved more forthright still. 'Only an
imbecile,' he told an interviewer, 'imagines that a cyclist who rides
235 days a year can hold himself together without the aid of
stimulants.'"

Nice.
I've been up here (Horsefly Mesa) for a week and haven't touched my
bike.....sigh. The spark just doesn't seem to be with me anymore to ride.
It seems everyone I ride with is getting better, faster, more controlled and
I keep regressing. It's freaking irritating to be the caboose, even on the
climbs. I just can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong (other than my
balance sucks).

As for the E-C, I tend not to travel w/o some form of electrolyte. I use a
product called Electrolyte Stamina by Trace Minerals. I use to get leg
cramps on long epic rides but haven't since I started using these pills...no
cocaine!

We (family) did raft down the San Miguel yesterday and loved it (guided
trip). So we decided to do another trip somewhere near Montrose on some
lazy stretch of water where we can actually swim during the trip. Memory
sucks so I can't remember the name of the canyon.

How's the Tribe bike treating you?

It's called getting old, my friend. There is nothing wrong with being

How's the move coming along? Are you going to make the break this
summer? I'm still in transition. The market is VERY bad in NJ. I had
to shave $100,000 off the house already and it's still not moving. I'm
going to lose the house I was building out here, but that's OK. There's
others.

Sounds like fun. I was watching the kayakers in clear creek yesterday.
The water was moving pretty good. I would say class IV in a lot of
spots. It looked really cold and dangerous, though I did think about
how a raft would do.

The poor Ventana. I don't even dust it off anymore. I basically use

Very sad.

I suspect that wasn't pachouli you were smelling.

And it's didgeridoo. It can be made to play more than one note if played
well, although the drone sound is /mostly/ one note.

PS Hammer e-caps are also great for replenishing electrolytes quickly
and effectively if you're in need. My brother swears by them.

Yeh, but it is really fast. Scary fast! I am going to use it for the
Triple By-Pass next year. But I have to say. That big ugly root beer
colored 4cm too big for me steel thing is very comfortable. I could
ride that thing all day and never get tired. And the fenders keep me
nice and dry 🙂. Alas, it is going to my other half if I ever get her
here.

Parts of Clear Creek are class V and people get killed there almost
every year. I've scouted some of it and decided I might have done it
when I was younger and paddling a lot, but I'm not up for it anymore.

Some of it looks like fun too but I've never run it.

There were quite a few in there. I saw six cars parked across from the
cone trailhead with carriers. And then all along rt. 6 they were
everywhere. I saw one guy pulling a tube from his car. That has to be
insane! Yup, not for me. I like the touring stuff, but the whitewater
is some nasty sh!t. I'll stick to riding, although I almost flew off the
trail a few times. There's quite a bit of exposure for a JeffCo trail.

If you ever get a chance (maybe not your type of band stuff) but try to see the show "Blast". One song they perform has about a
dozen didgeridoo players throughout the audience. Quite a few notes can come from one

I would guess that too if it weren't for the fact that two of these riders are over 50 and the third is 1.5 years younger....then
there's JD and the rest of the SCalifornia crowd as well as a few from Norcal and of course Kevin from Junction (most amazing

Move? Actually we put the Ridgway house on the market week before last after spending several weeks fixing it up. Now we're toying
with the idea of selling the Mesa property, too. Just too long a drive to get here plus as my girls get older they don't want to be
here more and more since their friends aren't up here. I took the family on a hike to lower Blue Lake in the Sneffle's Wilderness
and all they (daughters not wife) did was whine about having to hike (to one of the most spectacular landscapes I've seen, pictures
coming once I get back to real time connection). They just want to do the electronic thing (the kid thing to do now a days). I've
even had to keep my Husky penned up since she tried to eat one of the ranchers sheep (actually quite amazing attack before I was
able to stop her (hehehehehe)).

There's always the possibility of checking into the job situation in Durango and getting a house/property there. Durango seems to
have more to offer than Ridgway and Snootyville (Telluride). An on-line acquaintence just move there and already loves it. His
quote "encourage any of you who have considered relocating to do so. Dont wait. Sometimes we need to take risks. You can get too
comfortable in life. Challenging yourself is the surest way to grow and gain confidence."

worste we got into was class III from what the guide said. Only had to grab the center rope a couple of times but that was cuz I'm

Pretty cool. I like the didgeridoo and I have one I play a little. An
aboriginal guy I met in Australia made it for me. I'm not particularly
good, but it's fun. I'd love to hear him play sometime (listening to his
stuff on myspace ATM - cool).

Xavier Rudd and Dr. Didg are a couple of touring acts that feature a
didgeridoo. Neat stuff. Dr. Didg combines the low and high tech by using
a sampler and on the fly loops with it. I like it.

And watch out for the brownies. The dosage is hard to gage when eating.
I've seen seasoned stoners lose their [censored] from eating some cookies. Way
more intense than with conventional means. But the right amount in the
right setting (in a jurisdiction where this is allowed, of course) can
be a great time IMO!

played well, although the drone sound is /mostly/ one note.

Well, he did have two. One was an E and the other a B. Supposedly,
he is the number one didgeridoo player in Colorado. Then again, he's
the only one I have ever seen.

This is the dude: http://tinyurl.com/2m88sm

PS Hammer e-caps are also great for replenishing electrolytes quickly
and effectively if you're in need. My brother swears by them.

I'll give them a try.

Pretty cool. I like the didgeridoo and I have one I play a little. An
aboriginal guy I met in Australia made it for me. I'm not particularly
good, but it's fun. I'd love to hear him play sometime (listening to his
stuff on myspace ATM - cool).

He plays live most Saturday afternoons at Red Rocks.

Xavier Rudd and Dr. Didg are a couple of touring acts that feature a
didgeridoo. Neat stuff. Dr. Didg combines the low and high tech by using
a sampler and on the fly loops with it. I like it.

Yup. He does the same. He had a little Korg sampler with him that he
was using.

And watch out for the brownies. The dosage is hard to gage when eating.
I've seen seasoned stoners lose their [censored] from eating some cookies. Way
more intense than with conventional means. But the right amount in the
right setting (in a jurisdiction where this is allowed, of course) can
be a great time IMO!

You talking to me? I tried that [censored] once in college (who didn't) and
got so violently ill I will never go near the stuff again. Guess you
can call me goody two shoes. I don't care if anyone else does it, I
just don't need it.
