The Peep Army (Page 11)

I don’t think it is possible to be more extreme then the Extreme veterans in the Army

Now where do you park your MTB ????

I did 52.93km today. I am now a member of the HIT BY A CAR CLUB!

Got sideswiped by a UTE. ;_; my arse is kinda sore where I was hit but amazingly after getting pushed off the road I kept upright! The bike and I made it! We didn't fall. My arse feels violated though.

I must admit a passerby would have thought I was suffering from Turrets syndrome. My mother would've been embarrassed. LOL

Got caught in the rain 1km from my paren't place so I pulled in and played with my dog until the rain stopped.

Dropped my chain in the middle of the intersection where I wrote off my car a few years ago.

Pretty crummy ride actually! LOL And It was such a great day! The view of the bay at Wello was gorgeous though. That was worth it.

Mesteren Yes you are definatley extreme riding through that!  OMIGAWD!!! 

Did a quick ride down to Del Mar and back this afternoon. Very nice day down at the beach and lots of fasties out practicing for the race later this month. Hoping to get out there and mix it up with a few of them in the coming weeks.

Now at: 199.8/600 - 33.3%

Team: 33.5%

You have the craziest/scariest adventures!!  Glad you survived smiling again!! 

70 degrees w/ a light wind off the water today?  I can just imagine mmmmmmm..... 

Way to make the best of things Jen!!  Hope you get to enjoy your Sunday! 

If you'd stayed on the trail.....    

Hey Peeps!  Mestersen - I'd say you deserve a day off!

Pool was closed due to the bad weather, so I did a weight workout here at home then ran 3.5 miles.

Light_sab_r - I hit my first car this past New Year's Eve in my own neighborhood.  I had the sun behind me and a college student was coming towards me and turned left; she never saw me.  I slammed on my brakes, laid my bike down and rolled into her car with my head.  I was okay, she apologized.  I could have done the same thing.

Fun riding in the snow!  Sometimes we only get this once a year or every other year.

Hey everyone, hope you all had a good weekend, I'm just back from my mountain bike race, went reasonably well, can't complain too much Good to see there are some other mountain bikers on this website too! I have put a race report in my blog, luckily its not winter here so I don't have any photos of my bike in the snow but heres a piccy anyway My bike did me proud this weekend, it really needs some tlc now. Heres a photo
when its actually clean

Kel - awesome effort! Sounds like it was chaos out there with all those people... how frustrating!

Hope those arms arent too sore! 

That is some pretty hard core riding (In the Snow). Could not even begin to imagine what it is like to try and stay upright and mobile in conditions like that. (especially with the bike constantly getting heavier as the ice builds up)

Great job on the race Kel

I am up super early thanks to Daylight Savings to head down to the cove for an Open Water Swim. Had to skip my normal Friday swim and today is a makeup. I think the plan is to do something ~1.5 miles and then a transition run through La Jolla.

Planning on a ride late this afternoon. Since it is now dark an hour later, I am hoping to get some rides in after work now.

That sounds scary!  Glad you are ok.  

What is a UTE? 

Great job on the ride!! Sounds like it was a bit frustrating.

The mtn biking in the snow isn't really hard.  It is tooling around our flat backyard.  But yeah, it does require a lot more effort than dry trail riding.  We do have a semi-natural halfpipe at the back of our lot. 

3/4 of the snow is melted and it is pushing 50 degrees and sunny!

Got a schwimmy-swim in today.

Hi all,

I am back at work for another nightshift. 3 more to go (including this one) and then I get 4 days off (where I have to fly to Germany) and then 2 weeks without evening shifts

Today was my 5th bike ride this week and thats means I rode 5 times this week and this was probably just due to this challenge good idea to join

I felt really blah yesterday and did not want to exercise at all but I though I can always do just 10K on the trainer and as my nice hubby put my bike on the trainer I just did it....

Spinning today with the TRI-Club and it was lots of fun. As usual lots of standing and heavy cycling.

Hope you all had a good weekend

That sounds scary. I am glad you are OK.

I don´t think I want to join that club any time soon....

This is a UTE

Thanks guys.  I'm still shocked that it's happened you know.  I really should have reported it but I didn't have the plates!  What's the point?

I'm very VERY VERY lucky

It wasnt a company ute was it? You could at least report the company to the police....

REMINDER!!! Week 1 of challenge finishes on Sunday - PLEASE make sure your team is updated for week 1 by the end of the day Monday as I will be trying to have an update posted for the challenge by the time the USA wakes up on Tuesday morning.

If your team is using google spreadsheet I will be logging on and grabbing your week 1 totals from there... if your team is using another method or reporting please let me know in the team leaders thread and post the results there.

Update will include:

- General challenge gossip from all teams

- the % of goal achieved by team

- Any major individual achievements mentioned in the team threads

Thanks for your help

If it was I couldn't see the company details either.  It was just a "white ute"  

You imagine trying to track ONE ute down in the entire greater brisbane area.  O_O
