Just got home from a 38 miles ride :) Bumped up the avg speed a bit, but I WAS killing myself the last 10 miles or so...caught up to a faster group and didn't want to get dropped haha.

Lots of fun! Gonna go on the 25 mile Monday night ride :)

good for you... are you training to compete? Former coworker of mine does he's got endless stamina. I was contemplating bringing my mtn bike up here to MA. I was walking the dog today and saw a couple of ppl ride by. I miss riding.
 
Nah not competing or anything, I don't have the money or time for that. I ride cuz I like it, I can set goals for myself and accomplish them, and see the results.

Plus it's a great way to keep classmates thinking I'm crazy :P
 
so my 6 yr old red top bit the dust....thought it might have been the starter but it jump started just fine....
 
ya too many knee injuries for me I should go back to biking!

I have bad knees as well. The reason why I bike instead of run is biking is a low impact sport. The only way you can really hurt your knees on a bike is too low RPM and too much power, or an improperly fit bike.

For the first few rides I had to wear my knee brace afterwards, but after my ride yesterday (longest of the year) it's feeling good. It's all about strengthening the muscles around the knee to stabilize it, which biking does, with minimized side-to-side movement.
 
oOO look what i found

lol nice.. on a side note I will post what I did (part of what I did at least this weekend) sea foamed for the first time, was fun lol.. when I first sucked the sea foam into the IM hoses, I think there was more smoke but didn't have the camera ready then, so here is after the 10min wait for it sitting. also got the heatshield all polished up, looks sweet

also I'm guessing that when sea foaming it is usual to have some leaks through the exhaust mani and stuff like that? (like the gasket area, and around the exhaust gaskets) with all the smoke, not tons but a good amount

not a good week for boston fans! :(

True :( I went to bed with about 6 minutes left in the 4th quarter. I knew they weren't coming back. They never once held the lead in the game I don't think. They just looked sloppy last night. It's too bad... but there's always next year. I really think Cleveland is strong this year anyways, and if they had taken the series from Orlando, they would have dropped against Lebron and the Cavs this year.

I think they scored the first basket of the game, but that's it for a lead..
 
Watched the 4th quarter until about 3 minutes on the clock, then went to bed. The other night they had a great comeback, but last night I could tell they were beat. Pierce was missing free throws, Allen and House were throwing bricks from the 3 point line. It just wasn't going to happen.
 
not only that but everytime the got near the basket they seemed so unorganised. they were passing when they should have been shooting and shooting on quick turn and dump shots, and with howards hand in your face you arent getting any of those in. plus when turkaglu is on fire....man is he on fire. howard had like 437904128 rebounds. without KG this alstar team is just a good team. next year baby. without the injuries they had this year celtics are going to whoop some serious ass.
