Polar Bear Ride

It seemed a good idea at the time,lol. It was while the nkids were little..great place to raise a family but they are grown and gone.

And she basically follows me where ever I go. I appreciate that. A lot.

Think about moving all the time. Even got a small place in NC. But in a retirement groove here and it would be difficult at best to relocate right now. I'm 58 she's 59. Getting close.

You ain't a shitting,lol..under statement.

The deal is geting on my nerves alot more now. I'm a administrator, I work in a hospital, around nurses and who are all women of all ages and attitudes...God help me.

Nope. She thought I was nuts. But the first house didn't have a garage. Only a tin shed.

i'm not crazy, Not doing a polar bear nothing.

Administrative Officer

There was a time in my career when as a manager I had several women working for me. They were all mid fifties + except for a 20 year old. The previous manager had to be transferred because of the old biddies passing rumors he was doing the young one. The rumors were all over the plant. Poor guy was innocent but he got shafted anyway. Then they tried it on me. As soon as I fired one old hen for gossiping it stopped. I hate working for or managing wimen.

Exactly. They don't follow the rules..you call them on it then they blame you for something made up. So far its all gotten back on them. People in general consider me an asshole because I follow the rules, it keeps me u;timately not popular but out of trouble. I can live with that. When I go to work I do what I'm paid to do. I am not paid to pick and chose what rules I'll follow and which one I won't. They place is just full of out of control douche nozels who make mad bank, are lazy and don't appreciate the oportunity. I always say its better to go to war with a hand full that want to be there then 100 who don't. As far as I'm concerned everyone here is ovr paid (me included) and they still whine for more (I don't I'm embarassed)...wow..

I hear you. I'm cool..so far I've just told the truth.

Had two rides today, one this morning with the chapter, only little over 50 miles, then another this afternoon with another group. Second was little over 100 miles. 27* when I left the house, got up to low 40s then dropped like a rock. Small groups, about 25 bikes in each one. Good day though, sunny. Picture is at Lake Lure.

Heated seat and grips..what a girly man,lol. 60's is balmy out here.

Thought about going out yesterday but went for a walk instead which was the right decision...Got some ice on the side of the roads...I generally will not go out if it is not above freezing and fairly sunny...I try and ride back roads which don't get all that much sun...Had a pretty good scare a few years ago...Ain't worth the risk...

Yea, but most of us are not manly as you... U da man...
