Thread Drift

[Nanci]

So on my Century Saturday, there were some pretty steep descents. I'm pretty comfortable up to about 35mph, if I can see ahead, if the road isn't curvy. To gain time, though, I tried to descend as quickly as possible, but erring on the side of caution. I saw after the first big descent that I had reached a speed of 39.8- I was thinking, oh, if I had only gone a little faster! But later, without even trying, I hit 41.6!!! (Yeah, I know some people can go 60) Luckily, the cars are driving slowly, and I just stay in the middle of the lane so they won't be tempted to try to pass. It's so cool...

Cool Nanci! That seems really really fast to me Having no hills here - I can only imagine what it must be like to go 40 mph! I was hoping I wouldn't crash when I hit 21.3 this weekend, because I felt like I was going so fast. You were going nearly twice as fast as I was.

It's funny how the two tortoises have such different personalities. Sounds like you're having a blast with them. What do the pigeons think of them?

Ooooohhhhh - I just received an email saying that my saddle was delivered! I want to go home right now!!!!! Why can't THIS be my telecommuting day??!!! I'm outta here at 3:30! 2.5 hours to go!

Yippee!!!

Hey Nanci - good job on the speeding. And I am glad the tortoises are doing well. They seem great. But seriously, was Koko in guacamolein that picture???

[DrBee]

Yeah Nanci - you never did answer the guacamole question. So????


2 hours until I go home...

No, Koko is not in guacamole! That's his melted pellets.

I'm supposed to be getting new shorts today, Canari Gels. I'll probably hate them. But they're cheap, from Sierra Trading Post.

Susan from TE recommended some shorts I might like the chamois of, I think the Sugoi RS Flex Shorts. $119!!! Ack!!!

I hope to get some better picks of the torts this week- not aerial views, more eye level.

So, do you just hose them off after they are done mucking around in the melted pellets? It looks remarkably like guacamole. At least in the pics.

I sure am glad you didn't get a flat during that descent! Wow -that could've been bad. Any news on the guy that crashed?

I have a pair of Sugoi, not sure which model - that are just not for me. I think they are an XL if you are interested. I think I wore them once or twice. The Shebeests are just a much better fit for me.
