How we do’s it

As you can tell from my previous post, I raced in a crit on Saturday.

Sunday I got lost in Big River with Chuck, resulting in a sweet 10 mile or so road ride on our mountain bikes to get back to the cars. About 2.5 hours of riding though. Wet feet too, since I rode through a pond on my bike. But it was nice out so who cares. This also marked Chucks first ride on his Rapido. I think he must like it because I only saw him do a half endo once.

After that, I hit the East Ave cafe and partook in this fine dining experience:

Anyway, that’s how we do’s it in the Bucket.

Candy report

Always writing about bike racing is pretty fucking gay, so…

There is just something so special about a Charms blow pop. It’s become a guilty pleasure of mine lately. They have a bowl of them at the front desk, here at my place of employment.

The candy shell is like no other lollypop. It has a very tart flavor that beckons even more salivation with which to dissolve said confectionary treat. So, that cycle continues until you get to the substandard bubble gum core, which, upon chewing, holds it’s flavor for about 3 minutes, until the wad turns to the consistency of a piece of tree bark.

I also like Starbursts. I guess those waxy squares remind me of when I was kid, and always thought eating candles might be good. The same kid liked to eat freshly-mixed plaster of paris.

Gummy bears are pretty tastey too. Gotta love that beef-bone gelatin!
