I've had this tiny little bottle of Smirnoff "A taste of raspberry" vodka in my freezer forever. Today I decide to put it in some coke zero. I took a sip and started choking - shit tastes like cough syrup. Poured it out.
No more drinky for me. :(

If you both ride...
I was looking at my anklet today and the idea popped into my head that the links on it could be engraved with something special...kinda like we got our wedding bands engraved on the inside with something meaningful to us, it would be cool to do the same for a piece of jewelry made from a bike chain, like mine is.
I was looking at the links wondering too if I could make an eyebrow ring out of one, but that would be huge and weird looking. :D But earrings could be made out of 2 links or a ring could be made out of one link. Wouldn't that be a cool setting for an engagement ring? :D

Me and my crocs
Yes, I know this is supposed to be a biking...and sometime photography blog...but I have to ask how many of you know how much I LOVE my crocs? Seriously...I have attachment issues.
What I want to know is why someone...um, like Crocs maybe...hasn't come out with a shoe that can take an SPD cleat..damn them. I think these might be close to something they could use:
There's a chick on mtbr.com who added some cleats to her 2" black heels...why not my swirly pink crocs?
Maybe I should just break down and spend $100 on the keens I've been eying...

Indoor Riding
No...I don't mean *that* kind of indoor riding, you pervs...though I do enj..never mind. I'm talking about the kind where you get on a bike, slap on your headphones, crank the music up and pedal until you want to die. I guess that's outdoor biking too - haha!
I went to the gym this morning and did 5 miles on the indoor cycle. B-O-R-I-N-G. Especially since I knew what a freakin' gorgeous day it was outside. I'd so much rather be rolling over dirt, roots, bridges, water...whatever...than pedaling to get nowhere. BUT, I need to work on my endurance and this is a good way to do it. I picked a medium intensity route and did 5 out of almost 7 miles. I need to work back up to the 10 mile rides I used to do. And I will...in a week or 2 I'll be hittin' 10 and feelin' fine. I can ride outdoors only 2 days a week currently as that's when the stinker (4 yr old) is in preschool. He may be going 3 days a week soon, if we can swing it financially...so we'll see. I'd love to have another day to ride outdoors.
Random thought: My husband has said to me on a couple of occasions that I should go out on the roads in our neighborhood and just "ride hard" and that I will get the same high as I do when I go out on the trails. He is SO WRONG. I could ride til I die out on the roads and never feel as good as I do rolling over stuff. I guess it's the adrenaline rush I get from doing over things most people would avoid. And that stuff keeps getting bigger.
