  1. That looks amazing. Some serious miles you put in over 48 hours.
  2. I have now, 3 hours of riding today. Thanks for the recommendation, easily my favorite stuff in the front range so far. Far more flowy and less technical than Lyons, Boulder, Golden. Also, no trip to Nederland is complete without a stop at Knotted Root brewery.
  3. Shanahan would turn Dak into Matt Ryan 2.0. A few coaches can extract the most out of any talent. Where these Qbs land is massively important.

    Might be a good opportunity to show your work on that statement
  5. I've heard other Mountain bikers tell stories of flying down a trail and seeing a rattlesnake sunning itself on it. They stated they saw it too late and had no other option other than to try and hop over it while praying. I've encountered several bull snakes while climbing but no rattlesnakes thankfully, until yesterday. I was riding through a relatively flat section when I heard a very abnormal noise and noticed movement to the lower right. I thought I startled a prairie dog and the noise was half fear/half fight instinct. I stopped to investigate and saw a rattle snake coiled on the side of the trail. I must have rode inches from it. Is this something that's just going to happen periodically?

    When you are done bringing civil discourse to this thread every other one in the CR could also use your assistance
  7. Managed to survive a week of MTB across Colorado without serious injury. Rode in Crested Butte, Ouray, Durango, and Monte Vista. Crested Butte was the prettiest but Durango was the most fun without a doubt. We either rode or hiked 3-5 hours daily then refueled on pizza and craft brews every evening.
  8. Heading to Crested Butte, Ouray, and Durango for a week. Anybody with trail experience in any of these places? Mostly stick to blue and blue/black.
  9. Over/Under on both games tonight was ~39. Still beats Monday nights in March.
  10. Couldn't see the injury but the crowd response to the in stadium replay certainly paints a grim picture
  11. The average bible is 1200 pages long. Just give me the cliffs notes and provide me the speaking points to justify my prejudices. I have bud light miller lite to drink with my racist/uneducated/PTA neighbors
  12. You didn't state otherwise, but I'm confident the number of people sexually assaulted without the perpetrator being punished is 10,000x the number of those falsely accused. Like Mike Gundy, I'm a man, and I've never met a single person in my life that has shared with me they were falsely accused. Sadly, I know a lot of people that were sexually abused though.
  13. Well done, that's a deep cut. Sadly I've read several books, as required, with Ron Vara BS quotes.
  14. I’ve shared this before but Dr. Dickhead was my graduate school Macroeconomics professor. Most of his assigned readings were his own books that had very little to do with Macroeconomics. He was an insane narcissist and the entire class hated him. Nobody I went with school with is surprised his story is unfolding like this. Cool starry bra.
  15. UCLA sounds pretty similar actually. Obviously much better recruiting grounds and your lows haven't been to CU levels. But, UCLA has been pretty mediocre for 30 years and is overshadowed by USC. Deion in LA would be quite an event.
  16. Pretty much the bolded part. NUs D looked solid last week. They seemed to understand the system and be in the right place to make plays. That said, they didn't get into the backfield much to disrupt anything. The Offense was a hot mess. Couldn't run the ball outside of the QB and certainly couldn't pass. It was 4 quarters of wildcat. I don't think the OLine is good enough to sustain long drives and gradually wear CU down. I don't see any way NUs offense scores more than 17 points. CU will need to turn the ball over a lot for NU to win.
  17. Back to Steamboat, CO this past weekend. Some memorable riding. Day 2 the group I was with ascended a mountain in ~90 mins with 1500' gain in elevation. I was feeling good and decided to drop down the backside of the mountain on my own then climb back to the peak. When I got to the bottom I spotted a black bear off trail. Watched in awe for awhile then realized I wasn't at the top of the food chain any longer, I was completely alone, and I had a 90 minute climb out before I was around anyone. The second climb of the day was full of paranoia and anxiety thinking every shadow was a bear. I completed the ride which was 4 hours in total, 23 miles, and ~3000' of climbing. I bonked hard afterwards and felt terrible for hours. My body was up for the challenge but I don't have appropriate knowledge regarding refueling. Certainly a painful lesson. Nonetheless, a guilt free burger and several IPAs later helped.
