deal, will trade for "light" beer

Too many hobbies.... when are you going to have time to ride a bike? 🙁

 

[jklett]

I was thinking I might try to hit the local skate park before the cool kids get there.

 

[qclabrat]

There's always Sourlands....?

I don't know about that, I've been told by @rick81721 that Sourlands doesn't drain well after big rains despite all the rocks.
Big wet rocks doesn't seem like much fun anyways

You can just have them, it's all good.

So, how does LM drain ?

no questions just come!

 

[A Potted Plant]

Chickens, do tell, for eggs? I've been kicking the idea for one, but we travel too much so settled for goldfish.

there's a bobs burgle episode for this

 

[A Potted Plant]

Yup. I got too many (baby chicks are too cute to pass up) so I almost always have eggs. If you want some, you're more than welcome to have some but I don't deliver.

what do you do in the winter

In here for ride info huh?

So, how does LM drain ? If conditions do not allow for it I will ride Ringwood..the Cupsaw trail...in my living room! Stationary bike is now fully operational, actually great to induce sleep, I did 20 mls before going to bed and slept like a baby!

Over an hour on an indoor bike, nice work
My limit is 45 mins, can barely make it through two episodes of a sitcom without commercials

Same thing as the summer, just shut the windows. Sucks to shovel out their run though.

Most north Jersey trails might be good to go this weekend. It's been windy AF outside all last night and today. It's like a giant blow dryer out there. My backyard is bone dry, and we got a ton of rain yesterday.

Should be mostly good, but Kurt Vonnegut will continue to be a shit show. That section needs some major work.

I've been thinking to make some ramps to practice jumping at the parks as I have some extra lumber from a deck project.
where is the skate park near you? I need some ideas on pitch and such. I've watched a few of Seth's vids and some smaller versions would fit in my SUV.
This is starting to feel like HS when we tried to make our own 1/4 pipes and ramps. I hope make something sweeter than this, anyone got some realistic ideas?

Chickens are really tough and handle north jersey weather well
GTluke who used to post here often has had chix for a while

last chicken question, does their egg laying slow down in the cold months? Guess you need to get them before they freeze in really cold weather? Thats real commitment.

which one is Kurt? I don't know the pen names of any trails

I don't watch cartoons, sad but I got old fast when my kids hit their teen years.

Sourlands have been a mess all year. If you got a lot of rain from Michael remnants, it'll take a least a few days
