Title: Sick and cant ride
Post by: KYGS500E on May 11, 2006, 05:19:24 PM
My wife started barfing this morning... I've taken care of her all day (as a good husband should  :) ) Now, however, I'm sick.  We've had rain for 3 days now and i see blue skies out the window.  If I got up to ride I'd crap my pants or upset the paint on my bike with whatever I just ate.  Man... i must be nuts but even being sick... i wanna get out and ride so bad.

anyone else this obsessed???

I'm very thankful the idea of "seasonal" riding doesn't come into play here. My riding season started the minute i bought a bike and hopefully won't stop - yeah southern California!

Just put on a nappy and bring a sick bag and go ride.

Ditto EMT.
Texas weather may keep you off the road a couple of weeks out of the year.  Other than that ride, ride, ride.

I was going to go on a nice three hour joyride today, but I have my 5 and 4 year old boys that I could take to the daycare, but I would feel like an ass. My wife is at work..... Tomorrow I could go because she has the day off on Sat and Sun, but it's the only day I get to spend with her because I work Sun-Weds on 12 hour shifts. I want to get out and ride so bad :(

Riding is pretty much year-round here in Florida.  Did you know that the highest "mountain" in Florida is Space Mountain at Disney World?  It's a perfect place for squids to ride.  No pesky corners to worry about.
