82 degrees in August

Man o man, would I love to go for a ride right now. Only 82 degrees on a Friday in August.

McDowell Mountain park? The White Tanks? Just good old Desert Classic or Trail 100.  Red Mountain!

Anyways, get out while you are able.

joint juice?

Does this stuff really work? They said try it for a week, I did and it seems to work. I have a badly torn meniscus. Have not yet met with my surgeon. I've been told that this is an injury that will never heal, but for the past couple of weeks I have been walking around as I was before the injury.

These folks have a free 30 day supply online. Worth a shot. Also, they sell their juice for 30 bucks + shipping. Go to Costco and get it for half that if you go for it.

Probably just a coincidence. I will see what my doctor thinks.
