    Jacob Tong, delivery man for Trees by Bike, poses before delivering Christmas trees by bicycle in Portland, Oregon December 5, 2010 in this handout photo released to Reuters December 14, 2010. Last year Max Kirchoff's 'Riders of Yule' delivered about 40 trees to paying customers, and he expects his eight pedalers will deliver about 200 Douglas and Noble fir trees this year, primarily using bike trailers. In the spirit of the season, he gives 10 percent of his profits to a charity. Picture taken December 5, 2010.

    New resident Jeff Tolen makes a turn through the flooded Snohomish River onto a bike path Monday, Dec. 13, 2010, in Snohomish, Wash. Record rains that hit Western Washington over the weekend have eased, and rivers that flooded roads and houses are on their way down or cresting, the National Weather Service said.

    That could turn out to be a very cold and wet ride.

    One.........two.......three....... This is when everything slows into a time warp. I've actually counted each somersault, as I flew through the air getting off at speed in motocross, and the only thing I worried about was the guy behind me and his buzz saw rear tire coming my way. NIce legs.

    Only a matter of time before these two "suspected terrorists" are taken out by drone attacks or killed by accident and go into the collateral damage dustbin. Sad but true.
