Still gone

Well, I am really going to be in the dog house now. I had to sub again last night. So, that means that I have not been home for 11 day's. I think my kids are forgetting who I am!

Well, like I said, I had to sub again. I did fairly well. I was trying 0ut a different ball. It was someone elses so the figer tips were not right, but worked. I ended up with a 583 series or a 194 ave. I rolled a 192, 174 and a 217.

My savings pile is starting to build up. Well, not much, but it doesn't take much for me to start shopping. I am ready to buy anything. I have been looking for a used 1x1 to save some money from getting a new one. I gues we will see what I can find.

The Cardinals blew it last night. Oh well, at least they mad it. The Cubs choked long ago.

See ya

WOW!

That is what keeps going through my mind when I think about last weekend. What a ride in the mountains. Pisgah National Forest is awesome! I rode about 15 miles each day. It took close to 5 hours to do each ride. We climbed over 4000' on Sunday. It is worth the trip. I would take a full suspended geard bike for that trip. I hate that I just said that, but it is the truth.

That was the closest I have ever been to wanting a big hit bike. It would only be for the down hills, pushing that thing up hill would suck!

Other than being a long weekend and getting home real late Sunday, it was well worth it.

Last night I had to work late. I was late for bowling and then had to come back to work to finish printing something. Another night getting to bed late and I have to work till close tonight.

I ended up bowling a 580 series. Not too bad for the troubles I was was having. I rolled a 193, 205, 182

I have been told that my bmx cruiser should be in next week. Then I will have another bike I need to build. That gives me a few weeks before the Thanksgiving National to see if I can ride a cruiser.

Well to much going on. Enjoy this great day! yea, right!

Wed night bowling

Well, it didn't get any better last night. But, I didn't do too bad. I ended up with a 570 series or a 190 ave. I had a 196, 200, and 174. Free pizza, the beer was going down good and I did win a few hands of cards. All in all a good night.

I started packing for the big ride this weekend. Sounds like it should be interesting.

I will be packing the camera, so I hope to have some good pictures.

Off to bowl again tonight, but not until I make a stop by Yaggies for some $1 schooners! Yum!

SS-DD

Well just more of the same. I guess that is what life is.

Bowing didn't go too bad Monday. I ended up with a 582 or a 194 ave. I can't complain for all the struggling I had. I have to sub tonight and tomorrow night, so I guess I can see if it gets better.

Looks like it is a busy week. I have not been out every night this week, and it is not going to be any better untill next wednesday! I am heading out of town this weekend for a big trip to Pisgah for some crazy epic riding. I am looking forward to the 5 mile down hill!

Not much else to say. Enjoy!

Rainy Monday blues

Well here we are back for another week and it looks like more rain! I have had enough rain. I know we needed it, but does it have to rain for a week straight? At least it let us have a few good days this weekend.

The boy went crazy at soccer this weekend. He had 7 goals! Needless to say they won.

I had to work last night, so I could not see St. Louis loose there second game in a row. They better get on the ball if they want to go to the world series. I did get to put some new grips in by bowling ball at work and then tried it out for a few games. I had a 199 and a 220. We will see how it turnes out tonight.

Everyone do there anti-rain dance for the weekend!

More drinks on a Friday night

I know it is hard to imagine, but I have a few more drinks friday night. I went out to the night for Knights for a good meal and probably a few drinks. Well, needless to say after a few beers I found out that all the drinks were only $1. So, I switched over to some capt. Morgan and Coke.
They were flowing way too good and it made it hard to get up for work Saturday morning.

I worked on the bike after work so I could get out some. Well, I made it out, but the bike was not cooperating with me. The Singulator is not working and will not keep tension on the chain. I could not stand up and really climb. So, I just hit the trails that I could do and tried to enjoy myself.
Next weekend is the big MTB Fest that I think I will be going to. Three day's of riding with a little trail work thrown in too. Should be a good time.

I really need some more money to get me a new SS bike!

Thursday night beer night

As usual I was at Yaggies for $1 schooner night. The beer was tasting good and I only lost one round. I could stay a little longer this week because I was not called as a sub for bowling.

I also tried to stay up and watch St. Louis win there second game in the series. unfortunately, too many schooners and with a rain delay I did not make it.

Another week has came and gone. This time with plenty of rain. What is wrong with mother nature? Why can there not be a more constant cycle. Let everything get completly dried out and then lets rain for a week! Moderation would be nice!

With the weather cooling down it scares me that the riding season is closing. I know I will still get out, but it looks like it will start to depend on the weather. - L8er

Here we go

Ok, I really do not know why I am putting this out here. I guess because I have found myself reading several blogs. Either that or it is the fact that most people do not listen to me?

Anyway. I have found myself thinking non-stop about riding singlespeed. I have recently converted an old hard tail mtb to a SS. Now my new FS rig with tons of gears, just sits there and collects dust. I am working on figuring out how I can come up with some money to get a full out single speed bike. I guess it will just have to wait for a little bit.
