East Side Eddie P. |
Summer time is unofficially closing shop once again for the 48th year of my existence and what better way to start the Labor Day festivities than a pedal! East Side Eddie P. braved the bullshi* traffic (accidents mixed in with stressed out headed-out-of-town- ASAP travelers; the perfect storm for a cluster fu**) to join me for a loop at Island Lake.
There was a little bit of everything on the trail tonight. Besides getting passed by a pack of hardcore riders, we witnessed one dude wipe it trying to climb a root/stump infested hill and his friends gave the standard, "Are you okay?" response. After years of pedaling, the proper term is "That must hurt for you to be writhing and moaning like you're passing a kidney stone." Of course he isn't okay you morons. I honestly called them out on it.
Labor Day On!!!
