Happy birthday @mattybfat !
Thanks MattyMerry Christmas to my extended family, my hopes are your spending it with the people you love.
@moose35 Happy Birthday my friend! you share the same day as my gramps may he rest in peace!
Things have slowed down on the biking end for now. I cant seem to pull out that dreaded trainer but my road bike seems pretty useless these days so maybe i should get that setup today so at least its there if the urge comes.
I am starting my search now to make Sedona happen February or March, need to check in with @R grate to see what deets he has.
Work is a killer right now, absolutely slammed.
With the rain and temps wiping out the snow it looks like Tuesday and Thursday fight club is back on regular schedule.
Have a safe and prosperous New Year!
Will be in touch, that time may work better for me anyhow.Mattybfat I didn’t hear from you so I made plans already , I’m picking up my new KTM the 3 rd week of March in AZ , I plan on doing extreme off-road race in page az on 20-21 of March , I planned on bringing my mtb and riding Sedona that next week . The race is about 3 hours from sedona . I will bring the toy hauler and camp . Let me know if that works , merry Christmas buddy I will be thinking of you as I’m skiing Utah the next 12 days 😁 life is good !
Never would have guessed that, though the house in the background should have given it away.Dead thread? Or is it nobody's been to

Well truth be told its been 20+ years since I have ridden this park. Man what a difference since then. Used to be just a 5 mile loop back in the day. Some many new trails and B-lines. What was a bland park now has plenty of spice. So much cool in again another small park in the area. Found trails jumps in the back and saw they had machines at the lot for the skills park that is being built at the moment. Fun park will adventure again when I can have more time.
What size are the SS? Askin for a friend7 days in pictures

A wise man once said "ride an hour everyday to keep mental health at bay" so I try to ride 2 hrs because I need a lot help 😁
Back to my early bird rides and already feel much better. Seems since my mom passed I kinda got off the regular then came the big snow. After the 30" snowfall we had I shut down completely. This was perfect time though as my knee had been smarting for close to six months. The break did my knee good but the 20 lbs that I put on, well let's just say I yoyo a little bit. At least I'm not starting where I have in the past and should be back in prime time soon enough.
What's different this time is I am staying off the SS for a bit to keep the knee from crapping out again. I am trying to avoid the doctor visits at all cost. I got as far as having the x-ray but kept getting pushed off for the follow up by my doctor to the point I said screw it. Yes I feel a twinge on every ride but I am not bashful to shift down to pie plate in the rear.
Here's to another year of riding and praying for a healthy one 🤘
Gettin a little lost with friends is better than getting totally lost solo.7 days in *maps

So the rides are getting a little easier but not much gain in loss of weight. I am only needing 20 lbs. I should see a big drop in about another week now that I switched to extreme low carbs.
It is a challenge to pass of the sweet stuff. I've quit plenty of recreational goods but I think sugar alone is the hardest.
I was very nervous to actually accept a leaders role at Port jervis Sunday with some team guys. I was asked to show the boys around and as I had a pretty good lay of the trails but not much fitness to hold up with this crew. I managed to point and skip some trails only to lose my crew. I felt bad, if I was able fitness wise we could of avoided some of those occurrences. Anyway I also got strung out further then I wanted to and ended up I a trail I hated the last I was there. Reminds me of the old days before phones and GPS where you learn the park by getting lost.
Had a sleep study test last night as my 20 yr old Cpap bit the dust and needed to go through the whole process again to get a new one. Dr scolded me again for not replacing it at the mandatory 5 yr replacement time. It will be nice to have a new an improved unit. It's been 3 months now and have had two apnea attacks. I dread going through those. Because this test was done in Stroudsburg I was short on time this morning I decided to just do Toe/Ho laps.
