Who says only 4 people care about you on Facebook?

I thought that all of my Facebook Buddies would get a kick out of this one.

They left the TV on and built a camp outside the basement window so they could watch it…

This is exactly how I felt last night as I pulled the skis out of the rack and headed out to Crap St Jack for a little skate on their tiny little circuit. It was dark, I had a head light, the trails were not great but I got to work on balance… In essence, it was was a pretty fr@cking awesome feeling. Damn you JubJub for getting to do it for 10 days in a row.

 I rode from Vallee Bleue to Mont Blanc this morning where I stopped for a coffee on the chaises longues. It was hilarious to see folks double take and flat out stop in front me and the bike and just stare. To which I promptly replied with “Joyeux Noel”. I wish I had brought a secret camera. Oh well, at least I got to work off all the turkey and stuffing.

So of Course I went cycling with the Rotters. You can either cry about the lack of snow or ride like hell in a stupid hat and jingle bells strapped your saddle bag! 

  
Thanks for the ride boys!

Sadly this not about pop stars drinking fancy coffee, but yet another post about my “Last Ride of the Year”. Drop off the junior ski instructor at Vallee Bleue again and then suited up for another climbing session through the back roads of the Lower Laurentians. I left the bike by the car while I got dressed in the Ski Lodge… BTW, ski hills should seriously consider that as an off season money maker.  Well I got back to the bike for the ride only to notice the rear brake one frozen open. No amount squeezing could do thing, so I plodded on to Espresso Sports in St-Adele (post title) and the bike techs were very very good at getting the rear cable replaced and even adjusting the front cable so braking would be even. Makes me feel a lot better about getting my skate skis there too now. Theses guys have really got it on and in a great location on Le Petit Train du Nord too.

    

And just to update all the climate watchers, yes it is snowing a bit but no way near enough to make it all white by Friday. It’s gonna be a BNL Green Christmas.

  Grandma made this vest for me many many years ago! I wear it twice a year and it still kicks all the ugly sweaters’ asses.

Thanks Mom, I finally one of the cool kids at work!

[UPDATE] 

Been asked to see what’s on the back of the vest. Well only just the most awesome snowman in the quilted universe.
