Manatee Monkey Mentors SHUT (Poptart or pet pic bribes considered) (Page 16)

I didn't see a one-way sign.  Only single rule breaking.  Good thing there weren't any photo radar controls in the area.  Wait, maybe that's how that picture got taken.  Except there's no rear shot showing his license plate...

Does anyone on here use TrainerRoad?  I know a guy who's an ambassador who can get me the first month free.  I think it will probably do well in driving good results.  Thoughts?

You whinin' about bein' all wet behind the ears again? Good on ya for getting a run in before the long haul.

I have another bright ray of sunshine ... meet Scooter. We're dognapping him for 3 or more months. His humans (see pic) are in Singapore; they've had a preemie with lung problems (common in them) and he'll be in NICU for a few more weeks, then in regular hospital for a couple months. Poor Scootch is dying of boredom here in Jakarta--their household staff are feeding him and are supposed to be walking him on occasion, but his very best buddy with whom he grew up is their 3-year-old (also in Singapore). Yes he gets dressed up, ridden like a horse, tail used as a paintbrush, play-do in the ears, and he just loves her to pieces. Scoot knows me well as I've visited their house often (it's near ours!) and Catherine is a good friend.

He's a super friendly (but not bouncy), very affectionate well-trained dog (as a young pup he was raised in a prison program) and super well socialized and not afraid of loud clangy sounds or voices. He loves playing ball but wound up being actually a little too laid-back to go on as a working or service dog.

This is a win-win for us all.

My thoughts on this:

Why is it always the races *I* do ... (I swear there were ostriches on the IM Japan course ... no it was not the brain injury ... maybe)

What could possibly go wrong ...

Possible most creative reason ever for a bad bike split (I had to pedal with it humping my leg ... )

On Hands-Marie's umpteenth hand, is anyone really even surprised that my Ironman would have something like this?

Not at all surprised with this. Actually am a little surprised that this is all there is.

Ha!  You just shoooosh!  It's not a race, it's just a way to do a supported ride with a bunch of friends... but we might race the first 18 miles or so, which happens to be the first rest stop.  

GOOOOO Manatees!!

I hope that you weren't exceeding the speed limit there!  Wait, you were!  You rule breaker you!

But he's going the other way!

Wrong way and speeding!  Double rule breaking!

I didn't see a one-way sign.  Only single rule breaking.  Good thing there weren't any photo radar controls in the area.  Wait, maybe that's how that picture got taken.  Except there's no rear shot showing his license plate...

That is a two-way section, but it is a 5MPH zone, although almost every other place is a 15MPH speed limit. Thus the real reason I can not ride outside, . I am thankful that the MP's (Military Police) were not out inforcing the speed limit with runners, although occasionally they do get stupid in what they enforce.

This was the Road ID quiz today. Ha!
