Snow fun

Six inches of snow — and since I'm male, you just know that looks like a foot to me.

Well, there you have it — six inches of the chilly white stuff. We got bupkis all winter long, but as soon as spring arrives it’s time to break out the rubber boots and snow shovel. The Lord works in mysterious ways and has a twisted sense of humor to boot. Consider the platypus, for instance.

The forecast is for more of the same and then sunny on Thursday. Then we’re right back in the icehouse through Saturday before the sun returns — just in time for me to clock in at VeloNews.com on Sunday.

Meanwhile, we’re looking at highs in the 70s for Tucson and Fountain Hills. I haven’t unpacked my camping gear yet — if I can just get over Raton Pass with the rubber side down I bet you I can be in one place or the other in under 24 hours.

  1. Here in the not so great, not so white, not even so frozen Minnesota, we’re actually going to be back down in the 30’s for a couple of days, then back into the upper fifties for the foreseeable future. A guy could actually get fit early this year, what with all the motivation to ride and all. I’m sure that fluff will evaporate quickly and you’ll forget what you were bitchin’ about. Happy Birthday from DulMn.

  2. Dumb Shit, it was your choice to go home! 80 degrees here today in Fountain Hills.

  3. God doesn’t roll dice with the universe … but Mother Nature likes to kick you in your junk whenever you turn your back on Her.

    Congrats on yet another successful 365.242199 day, half-a-trillion mile, 60,000 mph lap around the big ball of flaming plasma.

    But just becaus it’s been exactly one lap, doesn’t mean you’re right back where you started, astronomically. Because of the expansion of the universe, you’ve traveled millions of miles from that point in space which you occupied this time last tear. Congrats!
