"...you suck the lifegiving dick of your camelbak hose for the last few droplets of piss-warm liquid."---- pure poetry.

Thanks everyone.

My wife loves when I do this.

Valid points. I was pretty serious in the 80's, did a tiny bit of racing, a lot of day touring. Bike was stolen, had a family, had no extra money so no riding whatsoever, a few decades later I'm back. Been riding for about 4 years now and I feel so much better I have no intentions of stopping...

Didn't want to bore everyone with details but: I ride an average of 5 days a week, 4 of those are extended commutes and the 5th is for fun. Mostly road rides but mt biking too.

29 and 30 of 31 Left the house early and did a longer commute. Seemed like a good idea at the time but it just led to irritating my knee. https://www.strava.com/activities/356973539 https://www.strava.com/activities/357022099 I had planned on climbing Bear Mountain in NY but a 4.5mile climb...

Would like to go to celebrate and meet some of you fine folks but I'll be out of state on a, long weekend, mini vacation. I'll probably miss out on the Halter's certificate too if enough people complete the challenge. But that's ok, I really enjoyed doing it and reading about everyone else's...

Listening to Lou as I'm reading this. Funny. Also Jim V's pic has a tire called Husker du, used to listen to them back in the day.

26 of 31 Still had to stick close to work, still on-call. Rode on some roads I've never been on thanks to J's challenge. https://www.strava.com/activities/354534745 Lots of bees. This was only half of the hives. Nice to see.
