The Vegan Vagabond, Curvy Butt and I out on a ride yesterday. VV on he new Blue road bike. Whoot! It's a beaut!
Headed into the Gats and this is what we found for a lot of it. The freak snow storm we got earlier in the week is still laying around at higher altitudes. People in and around Ottawa are lunatics for cross country and skate skiing. Put a little snow down and they come out in droves (all the marks on the road are from skiers - just in case you've never seen them before).
Some sections caused the cleats to get iced up.
Tanya pointed out chubby, brown beavers. This guy was sitting on the ice eating the bark off a little stick. I tried to Google a photo of a "chubby, brown beaver", but you wouldn't believe what's out there on the interweb.
weee hooooooooo
look closelyjust missing bells
ran into bug eyed Zamboni (big ring racing's only "closet blogger") on the backside of FortuneStef turned around and finished our loop off with us
Vegan Vagabond putting the new bike through it's paces while Zamboni puts snot rockets through his nose
It looks like Curvy Butt's hands were cold . . . .nope, he always does that when we stop. Really. 
I couldn't find my favourite shower cap, so I had to settle for a bread bag."How To Please Your Man" . . . . I'll tell you how to please your man - have a hot bath, his favourite fashion magazine and his rubber ducky waiting for him when he returns from a 3 degree ride in November!

ha ha ha!!! That's awesome!
I was sad to see you didn't have bells on! What's wrong with you man!
Looks like the cross country ski buffs up North like to wreck their gear by coming out too early. We still have wierdos on roller blades with ski poles having wet dreams about your weather.
love dan
rock skis - all the fanatics have about three or four sets of skis: dry snow, wet snow, race skis, and rock skis. freaks!

We look forward to your attendance on the 23rd, the sunday

hi Rodd - i'll have to do that ride on my 1x9 mtn bike. i'm waiting on my Fisticuff from Vassago (can't wait!). AND of course, it's going to have to be sunny and warm, you'll have to go slow, and could we cut back the distance?! Geez.
Cheers.
king...how many bike do you have?
just askin'...
Hey Craig
What size bike do you ride?
I have a complete Miyata touring bike with barcons and a triple you'd be welcome to borrow
You could also borrow my pink True North (if you can handle riding a pink bike) it currently has a single 42 ring up front for cross racing, but it would take no time at all to throw a triple on there, or even just a compact double.
Let me know
DO not ride the MTB
We will sort you out

Vagabond, I think it is 5, all mtb's at that, but two are basically sold. I just enjoy pointing out the irony of Big Ring calling somebidy else a fanatic.
