Hello all!
I’m Brian (‘bmillah’ here) from Silver Spring. This will be my 8th year participating in Freezing Saddles and it’s really the only thing that makes the winter tolerable. 🙂 I’m dedicated to getting all of my days in, but will sometimes sleaze a ride based on family responsibilities.
I like riding and being outside during the winter -mostly because nobody else is. 😉
During the past year, I’ve developed a love for winding paths and secluded trails while exploring connections between neighborhoods, dirt paths, public parks and everything in between.
Sophie, Jefferson and I were on the same team last year. Andrew (Godzilla) and I are neighbor buddies and he was my official riding partner last year (according to Strava Wrap).
There are a couple of long rides I’d be interested in doing this season. One from Silver Spring up to Baltimore and back. The other is to do all four boundary stones in the same day. I’ll plan these in advance and send out info when we have nicer conditions. Maybe we can make it a group effort.
Hoping to meet you all in person, but understand we are all spread out and the likelihood of that is slim. Tho, it wold be cool to take a trip to Belgium over a long weekend and Andy can show some of his favorite routes. hahah.
Oh, finally, I don’t frequent the Forum very much and much prefer Strava for updates. However, if people want to share more here, I’d make an effort to log on more often.
As for the name, I’m agnostic though I did like the sound of ‘Shift Happens.’
