Mission


Steve and I are headed to Mission tomorrow for full on Spring riding.
Sue generously gave SK her free expo ticket since she can't be bothered to roll out of bed in time to get there.

New place. Kind of scary. Where is everything? How steep is it? Am I gonna get lost and die? Do they have good burgers and fries? (like Steve will let me stop for lunch!)All serious questions to be answered tomorrow.

But what weighs on my mind is what are we gonna talk about for 3 plus hours on the way over there. This is not exactly Steve's best part of the day.
0.5-0.75 hours mocking Sue
0.25-0.5 hours discussing Steve's over training
0.25 hours discussing my under training and being fat
0.25 hours wondering if we'll be able to follow Josh's routes this year

And that covers it. He can't converse on America's Next Top Model and I have no idea what's going on with the viaduct. Not much happening in free agency and neither of us are really invested in March Madness. He's old school punk and new school angst and I'm country and hip hop. I'm intellectually lazy and he over analyzes everything.
Glad we got him a shuffle for his birthday.

The way back will be easy. Discuss every run, jump, chair lift,.. etc. Compare and contrast with Stevens, Baker, Whistler. How honest are we gonna be about how good/bad it was? These things take time.

Well, I'll just get my board waxed and read the paper (not just the sports) and hope for the best.
