3/15/18: Welcome to the party, pals!

Sometimes things just have a tendency to work out. YHC signed up to Q at BO on Bartmanniversary III, and as it turned out, Rolling Stone was set to be at the same site on the same day. What to do? Panic? Never. Worry? Nah. Adjust and move forward. How about a ruck-friendly workout for everyone? Perfect. Thirteen arrived, three jogged off to get a last taper in before TRHM, and ten set off to do some work. [Read More]

Virgin Wolverines Hunting Sloths on a Track in South Merka

The path to Q’dom had to start somewhere, for Tubeless it started at Wolverine. 12 brave PAX showed up to attack the time change, put a hurting on Monday, and celebrate YHC’s VQ. Things were off to a great start as Jiggly Puff made his return to the gloom after having his 2.2 Gus. All PAX were stoked to see him. Welcome back Jiggly Puff! Speaking of PAX, YHC was stoked to see 12 PAX post for the Tubeless VQ. [Read More]

Respect at the Circus

16 PAX were warmle welcomed to what is rapidly being acknowledged as the finest Thursday AO in Northwest Cary. “Damn that’s a nice shovel flag!” Fine, fine weather.

The Lake is Beautiful this Time of Year (har, har!)

“The lake at Phoenix is beautiful this time of year,” I thought with a sadistic little smirk on my face. Here is how we got there…. YHC didn’t know what to expect at Phoenix this morning with the Mule going on in Raleigh. Hello Kitty planned a 6 mile meander through Cary, as well. But, the parking lot was packed with PAX and one FNG. So, after the initial disclaimer, we were off, running down to the stop sign and then “whoa, curveball” Hi-Liter heads to the right, the traditional Texas Ranger path, but YHC heads left, just keeping everyone guessing.

The path is dark and full of merkins

Hello Kitty graciously allowed me to grab this Q for my 45th birthday celebration. Site-Q Biner mentioned the greenways hadn’t been explored much so that setup our prime directive – destination White Oak Park west along the White Oak greenway. Park is only about 1 mile away with a lighted shelter, basketball and tennis courts. There is a playground along the way for the neighborhood tucked back in there so we stopped and did some work. [Read More]

Taking my breath away...

On the 4th day, Breathtaker and I decided to Q Flying Circus. Its been on my TO-DO list for awhile. Forecast? Copious amounts of rain. Head for cover? Heck no… Roll up on the AO with five minutes to spare. Not one around… uh-oh. Luckily Biner keeps a spare shovel flag in his SUV as no site Qs were present. Though I did get a drunken text from 1AM SkyBlue apologizing that he was “working” late.

'Roid Rage

YHC has been battling some sort of crud for the past 8 weeks, and finally found relief in the form of …STEROIDS! That’s right all you spindly jabronis, can you smell what the doc is cookin’? This mofo is JACKED UP and ready to work out after a 2 1/2 week hiatus. So buckle up, we’re gonna make like a bunch of gym rats and knock out a whole week’s worth of pump in 35 minutes. [Read More]
