Where is Everyone?
Posted by wch759 on July 20, 2008

Hi Everyone,

I know that I am as much to blame as the next person, but where is everyone these days? I’d like an update on what people are doing. We used to come onto this site and blog and comment, but seems like that has died down maybe due to our schedules or other bike networking sites. Just drop a few lines and let us know what you’re riding these days, where you are, what you’re doing, etc.

Don't want any more to do with Fetish since they started shipping over sea's for welding.

I am jealous - they don't sell growlers in fockfield county. Have to settle for my last bottle of Heff and then I will restock.

Dirtdad, I'll take a fill of the finest BBC. I expect a growler this weekend.

I still have my Fixation but I am not riding it as much as I used to. I think mainly due to the limited opportunities I have in which to ride these days. I still have an eye out for a replacement, like a Kona Unit or an Evil Sovereign but right now I am happy with the current set up and not leaving the Fetish Family anytime soon. Grayville will be fun. Hope the ghost likes BBC.

Blue has got it all! I think you have to pay to play but it's worth it. Of course if the timing doesn't work out this year, all you central CT folks ought to come to NEMBA's Fall Fiesta at Grayville in September.

How is the riding there? A little longer and more technical than Trumbal I'd hope. Congrats on the new job.

Any interest in another East Cost Fetish Ride? Timing at this point could be a little tight, but I was thinking maybe we could all meet up at Blue Mountain. Very accessible for the NY/NJ crowd. Easy for me, but might be a little bit of a haul for them upstaters from CT.

I got a new job! My commute got longer because I am taking the train from Danbury to Norwalk but it beats driving with the high cost of gasoline. Of course, this means that I can't ride after work like I have done in the past, when I was only working ten miles from home. My fixation hasn't seen dirt since the beginning of last month! Looks like I have turned into a weekend warrior.

did the Longest Day double century ride in June, with Doug. 208 miles in 12 hours, 20 minutes!! I was a little tired after that. ;-) did some mountain biking out in NJ yesterday at Deer Park. First time there. pretty cool place. that was the first ride for the Mavic Crossmax ST wheelset I just got! pretty sweet!

did my first duathlon this summer (middle of the pack in my age group for riding time), still working part time at the cycling shop, got the cyclocross bike which i love, and currently working on a rocky mountain road bike build.

Hit the trail for one last ride in California today. About ~20 miles. Then dropped the bike off at a shop to be shipping to the East Coast.
