Quote of the day (from non-riders)
Today I spared the air! For the first time this year I *finally* got off my butt and rode to work (Coker). I feel good! And out of shape!
Today's quote comes from a runner, going the other way on the American River Bike Path: "Open your mouth wide—you can have lots of bugs for breakfast!" I never heard that one before. Oddly, I met him right where I turn off onto the dirt for my shortcut out to the neighborhood. I only saw two other bikes on my whole 3-4 mile stretch of bike path. During the summer it's a dozen minimum, usually more. I saw about 10 runners, and 1 inline skater. So I'm not the only lazy one this time of year. Quote #2, from a lady who held the door of my building open for me: "Where's the rest of it?" I said I left it at home; it's too heavy. Add your good non-rider quotes here.

"Holy Crap! Are you out of your mind!" as I rode down a section of fairly steep drops on a Mtn Bike Trail.
And of Course Happy Birthday John. Great way to start the rest of your life. |

That's very similar to this old motorcyle saying ...
Q: "Know how to tell a happy motocycle rider ...?" A: "By the number of bugs in his teeth." (implied from smiling while riding ...) Happy Bday! I still haven't figured out this one I got a few weeks ago ... "Your a jam ... !"

Happy B-day John
My quote was from a teenage girl in traffic in the middle of a snow storm (Are you Fricken crazy!) I naturally said yes.

fel säsong
How about "Det är fel säsong for det." to which I replied "Nej, det är perfekt!".
In English that's "Bad time of year for that" and I said "No, it's perfect!" I think he was talking about the continual snowfall we've had the last few months. Personally, I think all the snow lets me improve my MUni skills.

On Vacation - till i find a job

The best comment I got was from a road biker while on a Century ride... "Man, you got balls!" I'm still not sure why he said it.
