Visit with Ford and Amanda...

Pouring down rain yesterday. Got 4 or 5" out of one storm...
Went for a ride as planned, even though Ford was gonna wuss out. I figure we haven't ridden together in years, so we shouldn't skip this chance. Amanda stayed at the apartment and studied.
Went to the research park and it was horribly wet and muddy. Still pretty fun I thought, though my shifting gunked up in no time and even my fancy disc brakes crapped out. I don't know what happened, but my rear brake was just gone. I think the cable might have slipped. Ford let me lead the whole time. We didn't push it too hard but he was right on my tail the whole time. Didn't rip my legs off but he probalby could have...
Went home, cleaned up, picked Kristen up, went out to a Mexican restaurant, had some dessert, talked for a bit and went to bed. They took off at 2am this morning. Hope they made it back ok. It was nice to visit. Here's a couple pictures. Didn't take as many as I was planning (these are the only two) since it was too cold to stop and mess around with a camera.

Muddy bikes, wet car...
Later on, I took zephyr out to do her thing. She got all wet, which she doesn't like. She curled up into a little ball on the couch, which I thought was really cute. You be the judge...
