The weather here in the ol MPLS has been unusually spectacular for this time of year (low 80's) so I took advantage of actually being here for a whole weekend to get out and get rad. Here is the visual evidence.
Friday Night
spent the evening dicking around in the workshop then around midnight I got the call that it was about to pop off so I put on some short shorts and busted over to Matty's for some S'mores (in the Midwest S'mores constitute "popping off").
Saturday
did an hour and a half drive up to Milaca to check out some MTB trails (fall is mountainbike season)
but the ride was shortlived as I caught a stick and broke my derailleur off
Safely back home, B. and I decided to head out and run some errands
first downtown
then up to North East
and then some refreshments
was the Wirth cyclocross race, so me Don and Dirty decided to make a day of it.
We met up at Liquor Lyle's for some brunch
then down to Cedar Lake for a beer stop on the way to the race
apparently, you circa 1996 had already been there
we finally made it the race
as soon as we pulled up this dude asked if we wanted a margarita. The answer to that question was "yes."
then immediately after Nate asked if we wanted a dog, another "yes."
we had arrived just in time for the start of the A race
but shortly after the start decided that we should adjourn to the woods for another beer sesh
back on the courrse, Hurl from Cars R Coffins was providing the play by play
after the race, one last beer stop on the way home
A perfect MPLS weekend.
