I ride several times a week despite having a job that gets in the way (thanks Mr. Trump Bigsmile) and I obsess about politics after the sun goes down.

Well of course I know you still ride!  Smile

I poke in once in awhile, roll my eyes, then leave. I have other sites and FB groups to monitor these days. Thumbsup

I ride as much as possible. Average +20k miles a year. I put more miles on my bike that I do my car.

Similar. I only use my car for commuting in bad weather
or getting groceries. I try to ride every chance I get.
It’s not unusual for me to put more miles on my bike
in one weekend than I do in my car in two weeks.

I think my last ride was to the WCRM  in spring 2017  ?

I don't think my knee will hold my bike vertical when stopped,  much less let me twist it when I try to hop on.
(Still from that Colorado Crash WAAAAY back when.)   But ....  wtf   ....  I could be dead.


The good/bad news is my doctor thinks it's now screwed up enough for me to get it operated on.  So,  I think I'll keep the XX  for a bit ... just in case Wink.

That's too bad.    Sad       If my memory is correct I remember you speaking to me and Steve, (my famous non Sport-touring member friend) the morning after the WCRM in the lobby and a few of us were waiting for the weather to clear up.

Yup,    Nice that the weather cleared up about 2 hrs after I got home. .... 3 days later.
