Catawampus

Had a great week, spent several days at the skatepark. Ill have to get some photos from there soon. It’s a ton of fun but it’s tough on a body as old as mine. Saturday was a major greenway family ride.



The greenway thing in Knoxville didn’t start taking off until after Tara got pregnant so she hadn’t seen a lot of the greenway I ride on a regular basis. We did about 30 miles, which was the longest ride I think I have ever done without a chamois thanks to handcrafter English leather. We had Towing a trailer that far puts a beat down on my legs.

We made a stop at the Tomato head for a late lunch, it was a great day.



Noah is taking some steps now and again and standing on his own without holding on to anything fairly often.


Sunday I went out to Haw Ridge. It was the first time there in a while, its usually too wet this time of year. I started out having a great ride. I ran up on a new deadfall and made a pretty big log pile ride.



Later in the day I met with a catastrophe for my front wheel. I actually did this on the same jump I broke a handlebar on back in the summer. The wheel looks bad and all indications show I bent my fork as well.
