Mostly nonsense. Also riding bicycles inappropriate for off road terrain, off road; GIFs

Forecast sucks but be strong my little psycho-crossers. 55-75% of our bodies are H2O, rain is not going to change that, and wind in the hair, I can only wish. See you tomorrow, usual time and place.

I hadn’t planned on making it, but this little gem of a post may just draw me out, John! (Plus I got a new size XL fender. Woo!)

This morning’s blast was so fun, I’m raring to do it again tomorrow. I’ll start with the Farm Team and head up Shelbourne. From there, who knows where soft, loamy (dry!) singletrack will take us?

Let me know if you want to meet up.

If anyone wants to take time out from designing kit I'm going to go for a rip on my cross bike Friday morning. Meet at Oak Bay High at six, head north by way of the golf course to the land of adventure. Anyone want to come with?

Until I can bunny hop I’m a regular. See you Friday.

Perfect ride this morning, fellas. Here's the edit. Sorry again for the cheezy, public-domain soundtrack.

Any interest in cross tomorrow morning from the usual Farm team location? Decent temperatures and clear skies limit excuses.

I’m interested in the usual Shelbourne warm-up and trail return. (Still haven’t been back to Fennell Wood to search for my bottle!) However, I might have to be back home for 7:15 or so...

Rolf,
Don't sweat the water bottle. I swung back and found it.
