Well, this Formula SAE thing takes up all my free time. All the time left over I am either in class or doing homework. Somewhere in there I need to find time to sleep, eat, and do laundry. Luckily I love designing and (with reasonable hours) bulding car stuff. During the summer I will be designing for next year and hopefully have a summer job. But then I will be at home, not up in SLO around all the college chicks. And with me having no interest in socializing at a bar or something purely for the sake of socializing, I do not know of any "happening" places in TO. I just need to realize that I can meet people after college. Its not like there is a deadline. Its just that seeing girls around all the time keeps my mind on them.

I have enough hobbies. What I need is more time.

I am thinking about swapping over to knobbies on the mtb when the street tires wear out so that I can go on more trails out here. Not sure whether I might want to get clip-ons as well. The decision will be based primarily on price.

What I need more is a little pack with some spare tubes and a hand held air pump so that I will feel better about riding the 12 miles to Morro Bay and back. That would be a long walk if I got a flat. That way I can take Turri Road or do Prefumo Canyon again and keep the street tires. Or I can get the knobbies and go to Montana de Oro or the Quarry Trail by the estuary.

I could see living in Los Osos. It's quite a bit cooler and wetter on average, though, which is not really my thing.

Up here the mtb trails seem better than the roads. In 1000 Oaks the canyon roads are great so I like my rigid with semi-slicks.
