So there I was...
Come on....I love wearing my Christmas tree costume when I run. Chicks dig it. Between that and running shorts I can hardly hold 'em back!

Here's my "so there I was" story.
So there I was riding in a pace line, second from the end. Guy behind me shouts out "wiener back". Wiener back? Da hell does that mean? Sure enough, a few seconds later one of those Oscar Meyer hotdog car goes by.
I was in a time trial once where the lady starting in front of me was on a banana seat bike with a licesnse plate that said "honk if you love smurfs". I spent the first 3 miles trying to recover from laughing at seeing her mixed in with all the serious hard core time trialers and their fance bikes.

i can't stop laughing.... :) LOL :) i think the people in the cubes around me are wondering what i am on........ damn that's funny. ...... "honk if you love smurfs" LOL LOL





out on my nice little recovery run, just bumbling along, minding my own business, when around the corner comes a sight to see!
It was either a dude or a running Christmas tree wearing:
A reflective vest
A BRIGHT LED headlamp
Not one, but TWO red flashing LEDs on the front of his vest...
And nothing on the rear.
All this on a lit paved running loop next to a 4 lane road with street lights the entire way.
I couldnt stop laughing. I may have let a comment like "Wow! You're lit up!" out. Overkill... from the front anyway :rolleyes:
I understand safety first, but I would be worried about blinding people with that display and having them run into me!
Had to share.
Life is short. Play hard and get dirty doing it.
