Back to the lake

Everybody always talks about the hazards of riding an indoor trainer: boredom, and ... well, I guess everybody just talks about the boredom. They never warn you about the dangers of having a teenager with a collection of DVDs you can dip into for workout sessions. Kids watch some weird shit these days. Trust me on this.

Speaking of weird shit, it's time for news of another Frigid Bits race. This Saturday, race time 7 p.m. and it's a combination trail ride and lake criterium. Racers will leave Goose Lake and ride the Tour of Anchorage Trail to View Point, then turn left on Moose Meadow to Rover's Run before turning back north to return to the lake for six laps on the crit course.

Racers can use more than one bike, and wheel swaps are allowed. Just knowing that Carlos is making wheel swaps on option tells us what, class?

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Yeah, that's right, Ferris. It has the potential to be a shit sandwich if trail conditions are soft. But there's gonna be a tailgate party afterward. Beer, cooked animals and bullshit by the ton. What else could you want on a Saturday night?
