Kumbaya round the block
Conditions: Wet but fine Tha Thang: 6 of Columbia’s finest gathered, although 3 showed their weeniness by doing a steady pace. Still, they did way better than those in their fartsacks. The 3 remaining manly men sang Kumbaya. No, really. Well, actually, that is the name of a classic (to me) speed workout, …
Gonna Fly Now
Conditions: 42 and clear, ground/bars a little wet Disclaimer Music du jour – Rocky Theme Tha Thang: 8 pax gathered for a continuation of YHC’s 2022 theme, that of completely stealing his own Qs from years past and slightly modifying. This was from May 2015, and had a strong Rocky/boxing theme. Today, less strong on …

There is a season, Turn Turn Turn!!
Website not formatting properly, cobains. Conditions: 62 in late December, ridiculous Disclaimer Vocal Musical Interlude Tha Thang: So on January 4, 2015, I had the privilege of Co-Qing a BC with Cornstache.

You want cheese with that whine?
Conditions: 60ish, perfect Disclaimer: Prior to YHC arrival Tha Thang: Our planned Q went AWOL to the beach, and our AOQ had an alarm fail. So, things went sideways straight off. YHC had a running plan early, so first 30 minutes was allocated to a Dealer’s Choice which apparently Fallout dominated, with a good deal …
Heavybull
4 faithful showed up to conquer the concrete beast. However, only YHC actually touched the beast, with the rest choosing the Bullseye, 2/3 weighted. No complaints here, as YHC joined them for a couple laps too with weight. Sure makes a difference. Disclaimer Tha Thang Announcements: Gump runvergence August 27th at Stumble Prayer requests: None …
#Wanderlust
Conditions: Good grief Disclaimer Tha Thang: 8 (kind of) pax went for a joyride on two legs around an area we aren’t so familiar with. Despite a couple of near misses and some #grumblechatter from the SugarRay up front, as well as some jittery tummies, we all roughly ended up with 5.9-6 miles on approximately …
Meet my friend Bert
Conditions: Barely beating storm Tha Thang: 6 faithful avoided the crazy train and came to Woodshed. While I have no problem whatsoever with that choice, I was personally mildly miffed because I tried to get out of this to go on the Midlands Tour and was unsuccessful. Therefore some punishment was in order… Disclaimer …
