CROSS?

My mom is looking at my shirt curiously and says, I guess "CROSS" fits better on a shirt than "CURMUDGEON"


cross: marked by typically transitory bad temper.


curmudgeon: a crusty, ill-tempered, and usually old man.

Thanks, Mom.

"Koppenberg"

So, I was planning on meeting Terry for the "Flanders Ride" today, but the forecast for today was pretty crappy. The weather on Saturday was nice. Needless to say I bailed on riding the Koppenberg today and went down there yesterday. It was a good thing IO did not meet Terry at the Norristown Train Station parking lot because where we usually meet is now a 4 story parking garage,

and it was closed. So, we wouldn't have been able to park there!

I ended up driving to Conshohoken and parked a few miles closer to the climb. It was a good thing too, because I struggled.

Here is a video of the Port Royal climb aka Koppenberg.

And no, I did not take the video! I could barely keep the bike upright because I was going so slow! But, I made it! and I even made it back to the jeep.

I'm having a little bit of trouble walking up the stairs today.
