I wore a tank cuz it was hot as F and figured I can even my awesome tan line a bit. everything that was white above the tan lines turned maroonish pink. Should peel nicely in a few days
aloe is my best friend

I went to see my dermatologist in March and she took one look at my sharp farmer's tan and handed me a bunch of sun screen samples...

Alright Jim, you're on the list. I do ride outside, you know.
WHy is BF all crappy looking right now? It's the low-bandwidth version, very annoying.

At least the code is wee bit better for posting photos, downside it's bright as F and will messup my night vision during those midnight hours

At least there's a "submit reply" button now after I quote somebody! The last version was buggy... oh well. I bet you can choose a different theme if you want that will tone down the white space.

There's a new WYSIWYG editing mode so you don't have to use tags and what not... Let's see hm, not behaving like I thought.

Had a nice ride to Solana Beach with more climbing and miles than “usual” route from Irvine. 72 miles 3500 feet
i enjoyed some pickle juice at Las Pulgas. There was some sort of accident in Camp Pendleton and the person I saw was laying in tall grass and the street sign was not where it belonged. Didn’t see a bike but guess if was Cyclist the bike was in the grass. Heard copter came to life flight them. Hope they are ok.

Good job on the ride, mine ended up at about 53 and maybe 1500. You and @tunavic (who did Breathless Agony today) are making me feel like a slacker! But according to Strava @TrojanHorse just played computer bike today, so there's that!
. Oh weird, I can see you are trying to dog me, but it only shows up when I look at teh quoted material, the board erased it from your post because they know you're just wrong.
Yeah, today was the last stage of Tour de Fake Riding Land so I could get the fake kit. That's probably it for a while, except for maybe an occasional outing. Inning?

You're still smiling, must have been a good ride! How did Artie hold up? Did he wear those damn sandals?

It's hard to not smile once you've reached the top in Breathless Agony. Huge endorphin rush plus you are so happy to be off the bike and stop pushing those bloody pedals! Well done Tunavic!

Just have to vent, saw this on our neighborhood Facebook group:
Pretty sad that kids can't be allowed to play on a rope swing these days.
There’s a swing that someone had tied on a tree branch on the greenbelt.... I’ve seen kids and parent allowing their kids to swing on it. It’s on a dangerous slope as kids could fall off the swing and get hurt. Who should be called to cut it down?

Thank you @jimincalif - very true, I was glad it was over........however, as we approached Sylvan Park I knew I still had a lot left so I still think a double is doable in the future.
