Yesterday I learned something else NOT to do on the Zoo Hill ride: When descending, do not follow your intuitiuon and turn DOWNHILL (left) onto Lakemont. Seemed great until I hit Newcastle and the Golf Club, at which time I realized I was completely turned around. So, a nice extra 1 mile climb back uphill on a day when the extra time could not be afforded. Apparently I, too, am a fool. I also couldn’t find any cake at the top…

Again you hurt by causing me to laugh so hard.

…and just be forewarned that the next time you come back to find me passed out in a ditch, just as soon as I am cognizant of my surroundings again, and when the purple spot have dissipated, if Dug has not popped your lipoma head, I will have to….

rockhead – in fairness, you have to admit that there’s frequently justification for coming back to get you. the number of times i have found you dehydrated and passed out in a ditch can be counted on one hand, but we’re getting pretty close to needing a second hand.hillslug – i like the idea of including raisins in the cake. if i can ever get past the gag reflex when i think about that cake i’ll have to try it.chris – thanks for filling in the gaps with your alternative ride report.nikared – i’d send you a piece of the cake, but there’s just one problem: i’m far too lazy.

I have experienced an "Elden", too. If I ever ride with him again, and if Dug has not popped his lipoma (head), I will have to. Punk.Hey Fatty, how about a photo of this Zoo ride?

I was enjoying a piece of the Best Cake in the World (aka World’s Greatest Chocolate Cake at our hose – slightly modified with nuts on top) wondering how the Alp d’Zoo was going…wondering if you were going to be able to back up that trash talk or or have to come up with other reasons why the finish turned out like it did. Sounds like the weight loss is paying off!The WGCC is awesome…even when it isn’t warm it still has that wonderful warm texture of chocolate gooey-ness! Thanks for sharing the recipe and the weight gain!!! And yes, ours is also going to work tomorrow!!BTW – my husband learned on our first ride that "Elden’s" (as Dug so lovingly – he did say it with love didn’t he? – informed us they are called) are not acceptable in our relationship (at least on bike rides!)Caren.ps. drink lots of water and the scales won’t complain too much!
