Team,
I am thrilled that we Penguins have been dominating the top of the team leaderboard, but Team 7 just zoomed up and is breathing down our backs! Let’s just keep riding, every day if you can, and maintain our lead over those Seventh Heaven posers! Rah, Go Team Penguins!
I am also very sorry to say about 6 miles I rode today failed to record, and no manual entries…I hope to make it up over the 3-day weekend.

It’s not those posers on Team 7 you should be worried about. But the high rollers on Legal in Las Vegas who have actually ridden more miles than y’all and aren’t that far behind you in points.

And clearly you are not a dedicated FS rider. Knowing that your ride failed to record, you should’ve gone back out and done it again making sure your Garmin or phone or whatever you use was working. Talk about being a poser!

EDIT: Adding smiley face so everyone knows this was intended to be a poke in good fun.

What rides in Vegas stays in Vegas.

P.S. Penguin Team. This is all about fun and not about insults!!

And chuxtr, if that was meant as a joke, it didn’t come across very well.

Agreed on keeping it fun!

It was meant as joke. Apologies. I should’ve put a at the end to make that clear. Anyone who knows me knows when I make fun of people it’s all meant in good fun.

I love TJ’s. We lived in Santa Monica in the late 90’s and was a prerequisite when moving to Silver Spring. The tour/camping sounds like a blast, just need to convince the wife & kids, which is no small task.

I need help. Addicted.

This has been fun these past days, but how many times can you check the leaderboard without it getting undignified.

And does anyone realize how easy it is to get the word ‘penguins’ into just about any conversation, and then start to explain to the unwitting victim what a primal penguin is.

E.g. today…

Someone said “well that’s a feather in her cap” she will want.

Me: Yes, especially if its a primal penguin feather.

Victim: What?

Me: Oh let me explain. You see there’s this thing called freezing saddles.

Victim: I have to go to lunch.

It sounds like you need to take some time away. The only hope for addiction is going cold turkey. It’s really not healthy being that addicted to freezingsaddles.com. It leads to nothing good. Get away, go some place warm, find a beach. Leave your bike behind, it’ll only trigger the addiction.

lol, at least your victim has some common sense!!

And yes, it can be addictive. That’s why I do my best to not post my ride until the evening, and that way I only have a limited number of hours to waste on going to all these dumb BAFS related websites.

Interesting. I wonder what they taste like?

On today, International Penguin Awareness Day, I need to make you aware of the fact that penguins are warm and waterproof in frigid Antarctic waters thanks to a thick layer of blubber and well oiled feathers. So they’d probably taste like a frozen turkey wrapped several layers of insulated Goretek, dunked in salty, gamey, motor oil.

Not worth either the flavor, or being uniformly branded a monster by most civilized peoples (leopard seal fans notwithstanding).

So… like a Popeye’s chicken sandwich then. Got it.

These are uncertain times, AlanA. Now factor in the government shutdown, and things are gonna get Lord of the Flies.
