    Pretty much because I did not pay attention to detail.

    Arriving at the start point sans helmet, gloves, frame pump (but mostly because of the helmet thingy) means not riding. If I had forgotten my shoes I might have still gone for the ride.

    It resulted in the drive of shame back to the house, with insufficient time to sally forth again. :bang::eek:o_O:poop:

    Not really. I had to work but I went for a little drive on the way home. I'll have to give this trail a shot some day.

    I hate when that happens. I think most of us have done that at least once.

    I know that's the end of the trail but it looks maintained and in great shape. Manzanita is the ultimate finish to a Jackson Lake loop.

    I was at Jackson Lake today also. I've ridden up there several times but I have no idea how to link up to Manzanita. Is there a trail map out there?

    Lots of last minute Keyesville Classic on the spot work today. Can you install a dropper and drivetrain right now, at 2:00, seriously we got that today. What are people thinking.

    I didn't ride but I did burn some calories. Hopefully I will be able to get in a good 35+mile 5k ride tomorrow.20180310_093247-1944x1458.jpg 20180310_093255-1612x1209.jpg

    Some just reproduce earlier than others. You must have done so when you were 14, right?

    My wife and I had to make sure we were compatible before we had our daughter. Married 20 years at that point.

    Well I didn’t have my first kid until I was 34 so not the youngest dad on the block, luckily my wife is a bit younger than me.

    As one of the younger regular posters on here (maybe the youngest?) I get a lot of hope for the years ahead when I see all the rad riding you older dudes post up about. And I mean that in the most respectful and thankful way. :thumbsup:

    Once Jennifer and I got married several people asked if we were going to have kids. It was funny because each time we looked at each other and laughed.
