another fun ride
Well had great ride today with my old friend...... I mean nemesis Craig. We posted another Friday Morning GAC ride. Unfortunately, our participation was down 33.3%, so it was just me and Craig. We set out and headed east on good old Route 66. The last time we rode, I had been working out a nasty cough. My energy was low but I hung on. Craig was feeling good because he dropped me on the climb up to Mt Baldy. "dude...you ok?" "Argarlargar!!!"
Now it was Craig's turn to be summoning lung oysters. So I took advantage of that and steered us up Morgan Ranch. It's the place in Glendora where people like to build castles. Aside from that, it's a cheeky 1 mile climb with an average 10% grade. We started climbing at a nice clip and were soon battling it out. Why did I bring this jacket?!? Why is Craig shifting gears? Did he upshift?!?!?!?!Damn it's hot out here!!
Craig fought valiantly, but in the end, good triumphed over evil as I crested the hill.
It's good to exploit the weaknesses of your friends. Especially, when they are sick.
Well the rest of the ride was pretty uneventful until the end. In the last 200 yards, I swung way out and started to make like I was sprinting, lookin back and weaving across the road... total Joke... Craig wasn't joking. Oh crap he's serious! So, we both ended up flying up my street dodging cars and lungs burning....
Well, it ended just like Rocky 3.... Apollo and Rock frozen in mid punch, both connecting.
Eye of the tiger.......
