Saturday I headed out to a friends house for dinner. Jeanie was away for the weekend, and his wife took pity on me. Instead of drive, I decided to take the new “rig”: Jeanie’s single speed with a pannier style bike seat and the Burley trailer on the back. I loaded the kids up and first headed to the liquor store. The liquor store up the street has three drive up order spaces. I pulled the “rig” up to one of the speakers and asked for a 12 pack of Corona. The attendant came out and had a good laugh commenting that it was the best drive up he’d ever seen… so there we were, headed away from the store. Joseph on the back and Luke in the Burley, with his elbow propped on the half case of beer seated next to him. I wish I had a camera…
I spent an hour and a half dragging them around like that on Saturday, and I was surprised how sore my legs were the next day. Sunday we did a ride at Winter Park, preriding the course for race #3. We had a big group of the usual suspects and was joined by Jason, the towering Clydesdale rider I mentioned a few weeks ago. He’s a bike manufacturers worst nightmare. 6’8″ (roughly), 260lbs and powerful- eats freehubs for breakfast.

Anyway, I need to start carrying my camera around more often…
