Well, I've sent out directions.  I sent them via PMs to keep from just advertising my address around. 

Shoot you mean I wasn't supposed to put that Google link on my FaceBook page? 

and can someone tell me if Trixie is going to be wearing her new assless chaps?

I think those are only for the Wii boxing.  Think of the chafe on the trainer...

Between the snow and the wind, the driveway is a mess right now.  I wonder if i could get a chair lift installed by Saturday.  You know, just a small one....

It might be more feasible to install a rope tow...or one of those new magic carpets.  Less expensive and quicker to get up and running, I would guess.

I don't really have a good place for mtb.  The neighborhood roads are snowy.  That's about as good as it'll get.  I don't have any trails around. 

I worked on the driveway for about three hours last night.  I'm whipped.  I was chunking off 3-4" deep pieces of ice.  I'm only about halfway done.  Know this, I wouldn't do this for my family, but I'll do it for you folks.

If anyone wanted to brick it, I would recommend yaktrax.  I don't know if I'm going to or not, but I thought I'd throw that out there.

 ... I'm still curious if trixie knows of a secret mtb trail around my house .... hmmmm

Brick?  What's a brick?  a-ha-ha-ha-ha.  Oh, that's where we pedal a bit then get to eat, right?

And just a small query, was anyone actually gonna ride an entire 3 hours?  I'll be lucky if I can hang for 2.  Yeah, my base has been pathetic.   My new amended plan actually calls for 90 minutes so I have a mental get out of jail free card :-)

Last minute changes will let me attend, maybe we could hook up a trainer at the top of the driveway for your ski lift.

I like how you think!  We can take turns riding the trainer to pull the skiers up the driveway.

 

Matt, you may have a money maker here

 

 

PS:  I will probably ride 1.5 hours.

I have a Wii.  Bring games, and couple spare controllers.  My kids keep "misplacing" the extra controllers.

We can take a look under the hood.  I haven't really monkeyed with FS bikes, but I understand the concepts.

This sounds like a blast.  I'm sorry I didn't see it sooner.  If all goes well maybe folks would be interested in a Trainerfest part 2...in the Lansing area.

You're welcome to come along Chris. I'm in the Lansing area, too!  Not sure I could hold that many people though...maybe 10 bikes or so....lemme think about this a bit before I offer up trixieville.
