Ted H checking in...bonus, now this blog has cred. For the record Ted instrumentals are only good background music while your smoking a doobie.
Yes I’m back and its good to be back. Shmev found some ones unsecure connection to use so I am writing this off of a jacked network. I don’t have power yet but am making the best of it with my generator. That things has been running since Saturday, I just shut it down and changed the oil in it which means its good for another crazy weather event.
Sunday
Since we all know the shit storm that occurred on Saturday there is no sense re-hashing it. I’ll just say it snow rained and I lost power when a tree branch came down. The next day I had to go to the golf course for work, Upper Freehold was not hit bad. When I was checking out the course I was amazed at the quality of snow, a firm 2-3”. This has potential for some good xc skiing. After fulfilling my official mgmt. duties I got the hell out of there and raced home to grab my xc skis.
By 10:00 I was at the local golf course near my house in Cranford with skis on feet. Holy chit man was I pleasantly surprised with the conditions. It is said that the Inuit have like 100 words to describe the different types of snow. As a xc skier I can understand this, there are multiple variables that effect the type of snow you get. Sunday morning’s condition’s was spring skiing at its best. When you can skate ski in October you do it and like it. I think the Inuit call Sunday’s snow boner-reffic.
You can see on the
garmin where I hit pockets of really good stuff I hit multiple times for some skate ski action.
Monday
With the power out it seemed like a good excuse to stay home from work, besides I have plenty of time to take yet. Since I didn’t do my scheduled century Sunday I figured I would do it today. After I fueled up the generator I headed west toward Hunterdon County for the
Hill and Dale. After about an hour my legs were telling me they weren’t too happy after xc skiing yesterday for 2 hrs. That plus the numerous downed trees across the road made this century just about the saddle time and not about the speed.
This car can't get through but I can.

I'm always happy to see this bird.
The epic Halloween century.
