You guys put the hurt on me! Let's keep this one going all summer!

Great to see everyone and meet new friends. Awesome weather -- great to be back on the bike again and enjoying that wonderful pain of redlining every climb!

And thats the early season. They find new ways of making you hurt as the season goes on.

I have two words for you.

HUGGY JACKET!

Sorry I couldn't make it guys, but I went for a short spin in Zurioberland with Dr. D. Everything going according to plan I'll be there next Thursday.

Indeed, that was very nice. I'm looking forward to seeing what's on the menu for next week

But dakman, you were right there with us -- You should ManBearPig for lugging your spirit up many a steep hill

Great ride guys! I still can't believe how nice the weather turned out, and how long the daylight lasted. At this rate we'll be able to do the full usual route really soon...

It was really great to meet yet even more cycling enthusiasts, and to have so many strong riders - You guys kill me, but in a good way

Looking forward to the next time... We won't be around next Thursday, as it is right before the Easter holiday starts, but you guys should do it anyway. Like we talked about - every Thursday, the "redlining painfest" will go on... (sounds fun huh) At least something in life will be constant

I was wondering why the spin bike ride I was doing in the afternoon seemed so easy. Thanks ManBearPig (love that name btw)

Dakman, I summoned your spirit upon arrival in Thalwil. It fits nicely in a fanny pack.

advntur · #10 02.04.2009, 23:40

Seriously dakman, you were there in spirit -- during one particularly hallucinogenic moment when my heart rate was 200 and I was foaming at the mouth I swear I saw you riding beside me just like it was real.

Sorry missed the post. When for a great rolling spin on the north side in the rolling hills of the züri oberland. Missed that dry retching over the handlebars but we had some good conversation though. Looking forward to the suffer fest after easter
