Let me OUT!
If you frequent the blogs of the midwest, what you're about to hear may sound very familiar...
I've had ENOUGH! I can't take this weather any more. I haven't suffered cabin fever like this in YEARS. The cold I can handle, but the unrelenting snow and ice are driving me nuts...
To try and regain some sanity, I escaped to Cleveland, OH this weekend to bust some moves at Ray's Indoor MTB park. Ok, so I don't really have many moves, but I took the opportunity to polish up what I got.. ;) Most of the day was spent in the MOEN sport course area practicing on the beginner rhythm jumps. Took me most of the first day, but I got'em down pretty good. Today was spent trying to clean just ONE of the bigger boxes in the intermediate jump line. I got close. I'm just short of making it. Don't know if I'll get back there before they close, but if I do, I'll be spending a long day on those jumps again.
I can't wait for spring now, and getting to discover the jumps and parks around Chicago. I'll be there for the first day of digging at the Plainfield park being built by CAMBR. These guys put in a lot of hard work and have negotiated a great opportunity for free-riding in Chicagoland. Check it out!
Time to put my aching body to bed.
