I first want to apologize for my lack of eloquence/elegance with my writing. Lansen is SOOOO comfortable with his mangina that prose seems to effortlessly spew forth from his pie hole.
Crook and I started out last night riding downtown, as I saw a bike come in the shop from Corby North that contained most of the topsoil that we so diligently try to preserve. We made our way out to the casino where I told the security guy we were NOT gonna leave $3k worth of bikes outside for some butthole to take. After some 10 minutes of waiting they let us put em inside in a storage room. We had a very mediocre buffet and commenced to ride(Dave) and walk/push(hippie) up the long Highland/Waterworks dirt hill into the bluffs at about 8:30. The trail was getting frozen and not really muddy at all except where there were those f'ing leaves! The views of the Kansas side were amazing with the bright-ass moon along the middle trail. There are now even more of those landscape timbers across the main trail. The trail now may last longer than we are alive, but it sure makes for a sore ass. We rode through Krug w/o any problems and saw all the lights strung throughout the park. We came through the first tunnel on the roadway and the cars were all backed up. We took the right side and started passing with pleasure until the glare ice reared it's ugly head in the corner. I thought for sure we were gonna pull one of Dave's patented 2 wheel drifts and plow a car or 2, but it never happened. We then made our way to Corby North and found it to be perfect. The tracks from the earlier soil-sampling ride were very evident. With Dave's light and my legs and lungs fading fast, we went back to the shop and loaded up.
I am sorry now that I didn't do more night rides this year. Commuting to work at 4:30 am is technically riding in the dark, I guess, but somehow just not the same. Point being is that if you arent Dave or the hippie you missed out! The night-riding hippie

I am jealous, sounded like fun...
I'll be hosting a "get in touch with your mangina" writing class later this winter. we'll start each class with a group hug and a cry. then we'll have non-fat half caff mocha lattes while we talk about our feelings for 1/2 hour to get in the right frame of mind. the last 1/2 hour of class will be a silent free write session. there will be yoga mats available, and for those who are comfortable with their hippie bodies, you may come in the nude. at the conclusion of class, there will be a post session hosted by the "way too comfortable hippie" titled: APPLYING CHAMOIS BUTTER/ASS WAX WITH TENDER LOVING CARE. this post session is free to all attendees, but be warned; there is a lab session where the hippie demonstrates proper application techniques for each student. private classes are available; at least that's the word on the street down town.
Randy, I had a blast! Thanks bro. We need to get a big group for a night ride in January.
