I Remain An Idiot

As I exited work today the CEO’s wife asked me if I was riding my bike home. I responded no, I dress like this because it’s comfortable. I’m headed straight to the top with answers like that, don’t ‘cha think? I think my last evaluation I got dinged in the works and plays well with leadership category.

My accountability partners are killing me. I’ve got Snakebite selling his car and getting his own reality TV show. The Dad, who sold his car this summer, works on the same block as I; he knows when I’m being bad or good, and I’m not so good right now. Then CycleSD wants to know how my not so studded tires are working out.

You want the truth? You can’t handle the truth. I don’t know how the tires are working out because I haven’t ridden them yet. Not Monday. Not Tuesday. I don’t know, yet.

So I went long today. 17 miles. The sun set 15 minutes into my ride. The wind stayed at 0. Temps stayed at 13. I was a bit chilly by the time I got home but not overly.

All went well.

I think I want my studded tires back.

Would you call this PEERING pressure?

Don't sweat it! Reading your & Snakebit's blog have motivated me to get out and ride so maybe it goes both ways at times.

Sounds like you need a little encouragement. So, encouragement, in one word - Chequamegon.

Now then, get your ass out there and ride.

Oh, and another thing, you don't need word verification on your comments if you're doing moderation of comments. It's just an unnecessary extra step. And you know how time is money and that takes an extra three seconds - well, all the seconds add up (eventually).
