west windsor? depending on tomorrow....maybe next sat. i plan to solo 6m during week

think we are off the 6mile for now. and headed to the non mountain bike part tomorrow in the early am. depending on how that goes, i might head to huber from there. but non mountain bikers prob dont belong there either. so after tomorrow, ill see what happens.

2 words. got it il look into that. maybe i was wrong for taking him there yesterday. i didnt think that it was too muddy but might have affected ride sons riding a 24 octane. diamond back. unfortunatley i dont have moneys right now to be buying bikes. soon as i get back to work and some bills...

picked up a specialized bike last week. came with shoes and pedals that work together. sorry not sure what the right name is. shoes are size 11.5. little snug for me. or i would keep and use them. so, looking to sell shoes and pedals if anyone is interested. i need flat pedals. or regular...
