JRAZZ Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 As much as I like the speed, excitement and carnage of biking it still can't hold a candle to snowboarding... It's too hot and I'm too bored. Last season ended badly and next season is too far away to get excited. I've already cleaned the garage, set up two home offices and watched all of youtube. What are you guys doing to avoid the midsummer depression? For me going up into the hills is helping. Unfortunately this heat is making it difficult.

bumpyride Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 I spent the day removing/replacing/and caulking dryer vents at our HOA, to prevent having to reside the buildings. How's that for fun? Actually I enjoy it. There's only so much biking and hiking a guy can do all summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monodude Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 (edited) I'm going for a ride. Oregon to Northern Idaho to meet my new GREAT Grand babies, then swing down to Denver to visit my mom, then home. Avoiding people and Interstates as best as I can. Then home for a week and off to the North cascades across to Glacier NP. and back with my riding buddies on our 35th Annual ride together. Should be around 7 or 8 thousand miles altogether.

Love both bikes and boards, and both seasons are waaaaay to short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know when you find out. I'll come down and do lunch or something. Or you could come up and check out the new MonoDude pad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
