An entire week of 50 degree days coming up. Maybe I should have gone with higher number.

Saturday day 7...nothing worse on a 50 degree sunny day in november and not being able to take full advantage of it...unfortunately certain things had to get done before leaving for work,,,finally agenda completed with just 2 hours left to ride. Oh yeah...there was something worse...my imitation of George Foreman behind the handle bars rotating lefts and rights on turns and unfortunately turned right when I should have turned left and as a result found myself duckwalking in traffic for 20 minutes of that 2 hour window...sucked to say the least...but did manage to tally a decent number of miles considering...started with



and finished the day at




did have to send a small possee out to locate and trap the scorpion...did go rather quietly without too much fight...though possee did have to wait and wait and wait while he finished eating before surrendering... and now those lying side by side has grown to 5...wonder why those still remaining have started looking over their shoulders....... and then there were 12....


forecast for the upcoming week presents favorable riding temps, so expect more casualties

Next up for the tape measure




T-Man....... 45,450
Kawessttex 45,451

will try to negotiate for a 2 for 1 deal...

laid to rest
1. cali-c50......43,001.5 (took the cowards way out...pick a number that had himself eliminated before it even started...come again)
2. gkeefer.......44,611 (400 miles in 25 days...thats 16 miles a day...guess if I worked 8 miles away and just took it to work....well)
3. Hi-Vis ........44,727 (luck ran out)
4. Moto-Suzzi..44,777 (tried to run but couldn't hide)
5. Scorpion.....44826.3 (from Wiki...Scorpions can consume huge amounts of food at one sitting. They have a very efficient food storage organ and a very low metabolic rate combined with a relatively inactive lifestyle)...So, perhaps if he had put more effort in with the calculator and less in with the fork...who knows...regardless...add another.
