Lister,
"plastic coat and rubber gloves"- so I still can't tell: you going biking or...something else? Wait, I don't want to know...

Re: Spectacular bike crashes.........
My forecast is 40% POP and no chance of frost.
Just watch for puddles and washed out bridges.
Don't you love pinapples?
See you in the morning.

Re: Spectacular bike crashes.........
Josh, how do you manage to be up until 11.14pm on the night before a 6am ride??? Can you please tell me the trick?
Re: Spectacular bike crashes.........
no trick
I was up too late, and I'm paying for it today

Re: Spectacular bike crashes.........
Too late? That is crazy - Doesn't everyone watch Jon Stewart at 11 and Steven Colbert at 11:30 Mon-Thur? How else do you get the news from a fair and reputable source?
Hmmm, I propose that you receive extra bonus points for riding in the morning if you are up after 11 and double points for after 12 (If this works I may actually get a few points!)
