Wow a yard sale after a unfortunate meeting of rider & ground...wish I was there to claim a Fatty souvenir & then get a photo of us together (while I held said souvenir). Love the multi-parts, gives me a reason to get up in the morning. I've also starting to get ride-envy, wanting to ride in races but I've been severely cautioned not to by my party-pooper doctor. Ride safe out there!

Love the multi-parts, gives me a reason to get up in the morning. I’ve also starting to get ride-envy, wanting to ride in races but I’ve been severely cautioned not to by my party-pooper doctor.

Ride safe out there!

A fat cyclist appearance is a rare event and the opportunity for a selfie is not to be missed. A Jeff D. sighing might be the rarest yet though.

I mean, I guess you can do that, but why? What is the point? It leaves a bad taste in my mouth. We are all having fun and joking around and then, splat, someone has to poop on the fun. Please, just don't be Debbie Downer! Thank you. PS Debbie Downers, try some Earth Balance Coconut Peanut Butter - it will make you happy (unless you are allergic to peanuts and in that case do not eat it!)
