Old "quotes of the day"

"It's hard to fly
when yer 'humpy-humpy'"
...about these insects that look kinda like fireflies that, uh, appear to be mating?
(And are all over the place, including on our kit, in our helmets, on our bikes...)

When we were in Austin last week at one point Jordan and I were in the park practicing some cyclocross skills when this shirtless dude walks up and accosts us on his way over to Barton Springs from his motor vehicle with a plethora of hula hoops over his shoulders...and he was quite entertaining. He covered a lot of ground in our brief encounter, and finally said he didn't understand how anyone could ride a single speed (like Jordan was) in Austin, given all the hills. He said something to the effect of "YOU need two gears: one for biking, and one for your huge cojones!"
Man, I wish I had some sort of tape recorder for that dude's "visit"!

Then he headed off to Barton Springs.
Who knows? Maybe he was hoping to impress the ladies with his hula hoops, and lookin' fer a little humpy-humpy?
