I took the new ride up the Col' de Hamilton. I felt really good and I did it in under 2 hrs. That is a little above 10 mph. Not too bad for me. I talked to this guy on top and he gave me some ideas on some other rides that are similar. I felt really good all the way to the top. It was really cold but so clear I could see all the way to San Fran. There was a stretch there where I just looked around and thought.."Wow, this is a nice ride". I found out I can go faster down-hill with the new ride. The carbon frame really takes in all the pounding that I normally would feel with my old bike. I love my bike. The seat still gave me some issues but I finally I found a good way to place my booty.
We had a pretty good thanksgiving. K put her foot down so I stayed home that morning and did not ride. We went to Dan/s home and it was really nice. They had a Madden tourney set up and Mark and Chris would be proud of me as I went undefeated. Sure some of my opponents were only 8 years old and I figured out they only ran 2 plays...but I still killed them. I finished their dads off as well with my Peyton to Harrison combo.
Today after the ride we saw the Mvie Happy Feet. It was OK. I would wait for blockbuster. I am going to play some hoop in the morning with some guys in the ward. It has been maybe 2 yrs since I have drove the lane and rocked the craddle backboard shaking, game delaying, dogs crying, cats crying, babies crying...if you ain't movin you best get movin. I hope I still got it...not sure if I ever had it. My conditioning should be fine...but hoops work different muscles. We all saw what happened to Lance in the NY marathon.

Always happy to help another PS2 player learn the joys of Madden. Wins, doesn't matter who, just that the final score is in your favor.
Thanks for the news on Happy Feet. We saw Flushed Away. Another one to wait for on DVD.
Can't wait till Christmas to get in some miles.
