Mikie Watson Sabbatical

You can’t be old enough to have been married 33 years. Fact check!

 

He's an old fart. I've seen him.

 

I have an open tab with the local E.R.

 

8am start works for me, but I do my racing between 1 and 4pm.

@Dante and @GH may make appearances as well.

 

Oh Sh!t - you're right. July 29, 1989. 32 years married, 35 year career - so far. My bad!

Here she is, calling for an ambulance as I crash on the slopes of Steamboat behind her...

 

Simple fact of the matter is I will win the beer drinking competition after the social ride.

 

Wooohooo! This joint is poppin’ again with smack talk and a ride in which I actually get to participate! @herzalot, like Mike said, I pester because you are competition…actually.

 

Based on pictorial evidence posted on IMTB, I would say that is a verifiable FACT!

And nobody has noticed that I'm posting all this Sh!t including evidence of a ride this morning - on a Friday....

 

If I can sleep on your couch instead of driving home, it's on!!

 

It's a holiday weekend. Or you pissed off the Superintendent.....

 

The only STRAVAssholes are those that are already azzholes and now just proving it on their bikes as well.
Yo fashizzle ain’t dat!

 

Tapia isn’t all that big so dropping down to where we parked to to refill the liquids containers isnt horrible.

 

Chit the 11th I am in Big bear. The 18th and 25th work for me. Just sayin. Don't plan around me if it does not work for you. Not my ride. Although I would love to be there.

 

Damn! I am out for both 11 Sept (Moab bound) and 25 Sept (20th Wedding Anniversary in SLO but if you guys want to ride Montana de Oro, I am in

 

I MIGHT be up there (SLO Town) around then.

 

Shouldn’t this ride be called “Mikie Watson and the Replacements “?

 

Yup, that band is the Bee’s knees!

 

Now that’s putting the pressure on, thanks VDT

I’m still in barring any unforeseen circumstances!
PS, There’s always 5D

 

Yay! How about reaching out to Stephanie and seeing if she would like to join. You and here can kick all our azz’s!

 

Alrighty then…
@Voodoo Tom and I putt the pre ride for next Saturday. I think I’m going to arrange the first singletrack to be G Out so everyone hits it fresh. That way everything else will just be gravy.
Here are the Stats:

 

Or they will tell us to eff off and they’ll never ride with us again.

 

I figure we climb up and drop Barbecue Lid, then Logan’s Run, up to the Towers, then head out Sidewinder and drop G Out, do the climb back up to the towers and drop Dog Tags/ Carl’s, one more Towers climb and finish on Kona/Carls back to the Sports Complex. Then over to the Mexican Restaurant and some cerveza’s!

 

What!?!?!? You posted a Strava link! This is new territory for you @herzalot .

And this ride would have to be on a weekend I work

 

That's not a link. It's a screen shot. No way in hell I am jumping into STRAVA competition with others. I do not want to ride with a nagging feeling of always having to go faster.

 

What the name of it is doesn't matter, it's just the fact that you are posting a Strava pic is what I mean.

 

“Herz Loves Strava”

 

NVM, I forgot the daughter and DIL and I have a baby shower to go to
Um, I’m free the following Sat tho

 

Baby showers > MTB? Whaaaa?????

 

Dude....I KNOW! Don’t think I wasn’t tempted to make up an excuse.
BTW, I saw @Voodoo Tom at the LBS! We had a nice chat, I’ll let him chime in with the deets
