Great White South?

Someone told me yesterday that they heard that we have had more snowfall here in Roanoke, VA so far this winter than Anchorage, Alaska!

Enough already!

Skate lust

I know this is a bicycle blog...cut me a break. It's been snowing so much that I feel like I still live up north. I'm sure my mindset will change entirely when the snow melts and I can ride outside again!

Routine

Routines are for ___________________.

If I had a Google Maps car, it would look like a fuzzy shark.

Two more hours on the trainer on tap for today.

Caps have won 13 in a row. Who do I root for Sunday?

Why doesn't Indianapolis have a baseball team?

Best line from the movie Watchmen: "I'm not locked in here with you, you're locked in here with me!"

I don't own enough Hemingway.

1

The 1st race on my 2010 schedule isn't going to happen because of the impending ice and snow. Thanks Phil. Stupid groundhog.

Double time

My friend Wake posted on Facebook recently that riding one minute on the trainer is equal to riding 2 minutes outside. I hope he's correct. That means that I've done 5 separate 4-hour rides so far this season - all on the trainer.

BTW, this isn't my bike, my trainer, or my TV. I wish I had this hook-up, nephew! Schaaaweet! Maybe if I save my pennies.

I still haven't found what I'm looking for

Twinings Prince of Wales tea is as elusive as Bigfoot. I've found it a variety pack with other far inferior flavors, but only once have I been able to purchase a whole, complete, gloriously delicious box of the Prince. Trouble is, I can't remember where I bought it. I've looked at Kroger, Food Lion and Wally World and returned empty-handed.

I will scour the globe until I can find an entire box! It has become my quest.

Snow spin

So finally we get to ride outside! I remember what this is like! The fresh air. The sun on your face. It was refreshing indeed.

Then everything started to melt and turned into a giant slushy mess. The end.
