SLACKER

slack·er/ˈslakər/Noun

1. A person who avoids work or effort.

Given that there have been no updates to this blog for two weeks:

It is clear that this word defines me.

This simple fact has been demonstrated time and time again, and is well know to all.

HOWEVER, none of those pictured below shall be thusly described

Truth be told, the only reason this post is being posted (???)

is because my 2:30 flight departed at 12:46

and I find myself at the Duluth International airport

 with nothing but time on my hands

(can you say: idiot?)

Now . . . the important stuff!

Shanie: modeling her MN Iron Man Gran Fondo jersey. 

 I'd post a pic of the "other Duluth gal"

who earned one, but being a "slacker," she did not show for the photo shoot.

Although her identity shall remain hidden, 

it is rumored her name can be spelled with a single letter.

 The letter that follows "C"

Henceforth, none of those who rode that day shall ever be called "slackers ('cept me)

They rode in headwinds to 35mph, with temps just above freezing

Well Done to All!

Who are these boys with matching kit?

Perhaps the more important question:

Why are they wearing matching Jerseys?

(actually, I'd rather not know)

This single speed riders true identity has been hidden to protect him from certain embarrassment and the humiliation from riding a geared bike

(geared bike = slacker)

It was great to see Peter and James

even though they tired and bailed early (slackers?)

A couple of single speeds lounging

The grey one managed .5 miles before flatting (slacker?)

(note the cool, old school 27" wheels on the ghost bike)

Apparently

when the sign said "Road Closed," this time they meant it.

  Or, it may be a clever way to shorten a ride, and become a

SLACKER!
