  1. I rode with a bunch of women today. Single Track Sistahs, in fact, a
    local women's MTB group.

    To be honest, I was really skeptical, but I guess the proof is in the
    riding -- I had a great time. The character of the ride was just very
    different than what I've been doing. It also seems like I could make
    some friends this way, which is something I've had trouble doing since
    moving out here.

    I'd like to ride with them again, but right now I have a martial arts
    class every tues/thurs, and their rides are every thurs. It's a bit
    disconcerting to find that I might actually value riding time over MA,
    but that's how it feels to me right now. Guess I need to make it work.

    Sweet, too bad we don't have anything like that around here. All I ever ride
    with are knuckleheaded men who like to beat their chests with pride like big
    apes.

    LOL! You should come ride with JAR. We have a couple of girls who act just
    like those men you ride with.

    Ah the competing passions dilemma. You might have to jettison extraneous
    activities like working and sleep to free up time for for what's really
    important. It's nice to have a mix though, to avoid burnout.

    I told you so. ;-)

    It's not that it's better ( or worse) but just different. A good different.

    I know you did =) In fact, if I hadn't been so tired last night, I'd
    have made reference to you in this post.

    Definitely. I wouldn't give up riding with Eric in favor of this group
    .... but it's a nice change of pace.

    What can I say? I love my bike, but I love other things, too.

    "Don't visualize."

    Well, if they're busy beating their chests, it should be easy to pass
    them as they tip over on the trail ...

    The trouble comes when the competing passions are scheduled
    simultaneously. I still haven't solved that "two places, one body"
    dilemma.
