Wow, nice! Lots of people, but that’s a big boat.

predict an airplane swap, followed by a downgrade.

Both kids came back negative overnight, so that’s good.

really good friend that we had dinner with Wednesday tested positive over the weekend, so around we go.

Riding this morning I had zero energy or legs after going to bed early and getting up late, not looking good.

Oh, and bampilot06 I am still deciding between that and an Aspero

Good thing there’s not a supply chain issue or anything.



Got all suited up to ride this morning. Toasty 19 degrees. Made it to the top of my drive way, and my street had a solid thin layer of black ice every where I looked. Will try again this afternoon.

I have a line on an Aspero, if either of them sell before I make up my mind, then I guess I wasn’t supposed to buy either one.

Story of our lives, for sure!

The flight already changed from a layover in MIA to nonstop, so I at least have that going for me.

Yes, lots of people, but not our party.

We don't know the other two couples. One is the birthday girl's brother and wife. The other is a work friend and his wife. The birthday girl is an exec with SAP and so is the friend. He's also a Porsche nut, so we have that bond.

We'll make it good. Worst case is you jump off and snorkel for a while.

We may go to St. Croix, and if so that'll be a bonus since I've never been there. Plus, its a longish sail.

If they both sell that just means one thing.



























you were meant to buy the Allied Echo.

The Exploro is back to full price, which is not appealing given the crap wheels

Who sells a bike for 6500 w/ 2kg boat anchor wheels????

Whoa, I slept a lot last night. Yesterday, I had an itchy throat--I think I've been fighting off a threat.

I doing just fine now, though, obviously. :bday:

that’s no bueno. I wouldn’t pay that much for the 3t.


btw have you seen the BMC gravel bike? Saw one at mellow johnies. Price wasn’t bad and it was a looker.

sounds like you dodged a bullet.

We are very selective whom we invite aboard overnight, but when it works it's good.

New Bike Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Womp womp. I say it’s a scam.

Owego, New York is obviously a made up place.

East Coast traffic alert! :o

weird. According to google maps I can get to dc in 3 hours currently.


He has a 40 mins start on me.

Some girls give me jewelry I never thought I'd own.

Philly dodged a bullet. Light snow off and on for a ew hours. Half an inch officially at the airport. Some places "down the shore"--where I could ride to in a day--got 10-14".

Obviously

I was wrong, the boat is 52' not 53': SHANGRI LA Yacht Charters (cyabrochure.com)

Agree on the get along part. We are pretty easy to live with (I think) so unless someone is a total ass things should be okay. Fingers are crossed.

4 cabins with private heads should aid in that.

Very nice! Private heads are great. One just hopes folks listen when briefed on how to use them.

Apparently, there is a Lockheed Martin facility in this fictional town.

Agreed. All 8 have done this before, so shouldn't be a problem. If there is a problem, it will be the crew's problem. ;)

Personally, I'd prefer that the boat be a mono, but I ain't writing the check.

Would you invite me?
They have weird names up there.

More privacy on a cat and they make a great party platform, but yeah, not much fun to sail until you get into real performance territory and then you have to know WTF you're doing. We have chartered a few and had a lot of fun on them.

:popcorn

:innocent:

I’ve been there

It wouldn't be like that at all.

There would be no need to tie me to the sail pole.

Weirder than Bell Buckle? TN. I'm just picking out a town that I've driven through. Close to Warriors Trace, too.
