The ladies and I headed out on an epic 22 mile ride on Tahoe's Flume Trail.
The ladies and I headed out on an epic 22 mile ride on Tahoe's Flume Trail.
The scenery was spectacular and the trail was narrow, winding, and sandy.
With sheer cliffs on one side and the entire Tahoe basin leading out beyond us, it was a breath taking ride.
With an awesome group of women, we laughed the whole way. And kicked ass.
And apparently the group of young boys we passed on the trail thought the same thing as evidence of the remnants they left on the windshield of the van we all piled out of. We are thinking they do not mean "cougars" in the traditional derogatory term. Some in our group looked at the cup half full and took it as a compliment. Whatever your meaning of cougar is, we really prowled those trails and attacked them. Like spectacular female mountain bikers would!

how young were these cubs?
that trail looks awesome! glad you are back, safe and sound.
Ahhh cubs. Cute, but need a lot of growing.
From Wikipedia: Cougar refers to an "older" woman, (usually in her 40s-60s) who sexually pursues younger men in their 20s or early 30s. Term used by TV series 30 Rock (episode "Cougars"), How I Met Your Mother (episode "Aldrin Justice"), Two and a Half Men (episode "Waiting for the Right Snapper"), ETC.
Further: There is also the issue of whether all age-disparate relationships fall under the definition of paraphilia. Individuals who exclusively pursue age-disparate relationships are generally classified by psychologists as parasexual, that is, their behavior is qualitatively different from the norm. Individuals who occasionally pursue age-disparate relationships are not included in this category, except in the popular press.
I need you
