Teste

I just did the Test of Metal in Squamish this weekend. It was pretty fun, but as usual I was felled by catastrophic leg cramps. Unlike many participants I didn't weep, but did shout and writhe in front of crowds of onlookers. It was pretty awesome though, 800 riders, 67km, 1200m of climbing. Suffer suffer. I'll be signed up for next year for it, this time loaded with electrolytes, I'll be huffing Gatorade crystals right from the start.

Evidently this fellow suffered the same fate:

I managed to get these two to stand still and near each other long enough to take this picture, but not so long that it ended in crying...

Back in the Blogosphere

Yes the holiday from blogging is over. Funny how things have been falling off the back lately, first it's downtime, then it's a clean house, next hygiene becomes elective. What's that? A prepared meal, never heard of it. Fish fingers and chicken nuggets all the way. Tobin and Nick are getting along better each day, but they also vacillate between being buddies and being enemies that fight to the death.

Anyway, a few pics:

Hot Rod!

Man toys

Nick, holding on tightly, ouch.

Dinnertime. Like I said about hygiene.
