    What are you watching now?

    I did and loved it. I almost stayed up and binged the whole thing in one night.

    Recovery is the new Black (The Sober Thread)

    I started with a dry month, it was December but I just had enough. Sometimes I could control it, most of the time I didn't stop. I kept telling myself it's only beer, not hard liquor, it won't be a problem, it's not like I drink every day, the usual mental games. It's been over a year now...

    Gravel ride for beginners

    Any thoughts on patriots path? I know some of it can get technical, at least in Lewis Morris.

    Gravel ride for beginners

    My family recently got into riding and they're looking for a gravel route that's relatively long, not crazy terrain, with about 10-20 miles as a gauge. We're looking for more of a northern jersey ride. Any suggestions would be great.

    Jones Park / Aqua-Terra?

    No, my wife's family is in Pittsburgh and we were looking for a spot to rent a house and hang out, found a really nice house with an indoor pool on VRBO.

    Jones Park / Aqua-Terra?

    I did both spots on the same trip last May when I was staying over the border in Montrose, Pa. Aqua-terra is very down hill/enduro oriented. I was out of my depth on skill level, some of those trails are literally straight down with nothing but giant boulders to stop you. But if that is your...

    what do you read?

    Oh that's awesome, thought it was just a trilogy. It would make for a great series, either a show or movies.

    what do you read?

    Red rising by Peirce Brown, book one of a trilogy I believe. Very well written sci-fi where people are divided by color which dictates their status. I can definitely see influences from other stories but not enough to ruin the story and characters.

    Post surgery recovery now, all fixed. He was able to use my own tendons and anchor them to the bones.

    Post your BooBoo's

    No muscle damage and no breaks. They said PT could return most of my mobility but I wouldn't get all my strength back and the collar bone would always stick above my shoulder. He also said with this kind of tear, 90% of those who opt for PT come back months later for the surgery because they're...

    Thanks. It could've easily been worse. I'm still walking and talking. Half full.
