It finally happened. S'quatch and I crossed paths like two normal Tallahassee residents in a random parking lot. Me, I was picking up sushi which I will masticate and convert into speed, endurance, and power tomorrow at the formidable Oak Mountain trail south of Birmingham, Alabama.
He? He was picking up his son from work. I can't be certain, but I think I smelled some Rally's.
Now he is like other friends in town who I am happy to run into in the course of my day, the ones I look at and think:
an hour ago I was out in the woods, slobbering and suffering, covered in ticks and smilac cuts lost in a viking fantasy- clubbing a path to victory through mayhem!
I think that, but I smile and tell them I hope I see them again real soon. They would never understand who I really am.

Here's a thought locals.
How about we get Pete Shins set up in my garage sometime this weekend with his tools and let him get our bikes running correct? I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm running out of "Duck" tape. We can hang out, have some beers, procrastinate, and watch him fix our bikes-just like the shop without the Procol Harum. Joe can even build a couple of those Raleigh Ventures so he doesn't lose his touch.
Rates will be configured as always:
What did you need?
What did you bring?
How big of a pain in the ass are you?
S'pose I ought to check with Pete too.
Check back tomorrow night for an Oak Mountain Redux report.

Great post. Is there a B-group I should be blogging with, I have that same feeling I had when I attempted Food Lion a few years ago.
whatever rock star. nothin' but crickets around here. call in sick , come ride Oak Mt. with me.
Nothing would please me more. That climb would straighten out my chakra eh?
Chained to a desk, yell my name after you clean blood rock, and let the mountain know, someone misses her from Tallahassee.
Shins is amazing, which six-pack should I bring to convert my bike into Mystery within 45minutes?
I like your tagline.
Yo, sounds like a party, without the beer-pong. Oh, I guess you have that, too. I vote for extra points for tube sales due to dart accidents.
Seriously, we are rolling in some respect by the Black Dog. Tentative schedule is: Mon, Tue, Fri, Sat.
Bring the bike CLEAN (I have no hose). Pick it up same day (I have no shop). First come first serve (I have a ton of bros that are awesome).
