I'd rather be mountain biking...

You know the feeling. You're at work, stuck in a cube in front of a computer screen, and you can't concentrate because your mind is abuzz with thoughts of clean lines and nose bonks.

It drives me crazy: that feeling that you just can't take sitting down and being calm. You want to go ride!

So, my question to the group is, how do you combat this? It's especially hard for me this summer because work seems to slow to a dreadful crawl. Posting here sometimes seems like a great way to get it out of my system, but on the other hand I think it only fuels my desire to escape!

Any suggestions outside of burning up my vacation time? :crazy:

I think the obvious answer is kill time on the MORC forum :D

I screwed up my back somehow earlier this week, so no ridey for me since Tuesday, BAH! I think I may loose it.

Go see Dr. Chad!!

Luckily the feeling isn't as bad as the middle of summer when the days were sooo much longer.

When I feel the need to ride when I'm at work, I usually jump in the MINI and go tear through the cloverleafs to get it out of my system - so far it seems to work! But boy, my front left tire sure goes fast......

when you get the itch, just go.

I play hookie from work yesterday to try the new XX loop at Leb. Fun stuff.... but my employees always know when I do it 'cause have to show of the new scab the next day. (stupid clipless pedal didnt release when the cranks hit the rocks..)
