211 mtb mrthn ntls

Sweet ride from John Curry's troubled youth. I think he is planning on having it back on the road by spring. 
If only those carbs could talk.......













I know what your thinking, but the little voice in my head kept telling me.....
It is a gangster sticker from a gumball machine, some sort of flaming thorn heart



what is funnier? the magazine or the womens knee high socks










just soo wrong...... from the roaring twenties pinstripe suites chrome cars flappers louis armstrong
to this...... pedal yourself around in a bar that can't afford walls a band a bathroom or central heat




great times post race. cheese dip. great beer, and John's giant mutant arm
Location: ten barrel brewery, great place for food and drink




Randy Beckner took fifth in his age group, very nice, and continued his wining streak over Emule, besting him by 6 minutes.
And what is the deal with that crazy hair cut? I look like a monk




Here is Frank trying to give " the bird" to the camera, alas in a state of confusion he extended the wrong finger






Caught in the act. 
Asking for directions to the next bar.



The next bar





"the race went good, yes we are very tired..... at home......going to bed"



The next next bar




The service at safeway was a little disconcerting..




As winter approaches the male of the species begins to grow a thickened pelt.









We called AAA to repair a flat tire.





beware the ides of March





A coffee place called "blast" or "spark" or something.
Do not go here, the cream cheese comes in cheesy plastic single server things.







No animals were harmed in the filming of this blog


These log things were a blast to ride. I don't think any of us had ridden them before.







Delicious hard boiled eggs and Trader Joe's Starbucks coffee knock off




Stopping off the road for food break, half way between Bend and Columbia river.
Very nice breeze and sun with food and beer






John Dean






The mighty Columbia





Breakfast In Wallace.
