Rain here not starting until 4P or so. I can sneak a ride in, after doing some home stuff.

coffee, pooping, dog-walking to come first.

Rough night for kid sleeping. Home from mountains this morning once everyone wakes up. Built a foosball table for the kids last night after all but the eldest was asleep

More flooring to lay today, though once I get the next row laid it should go faster. For now, I shall enjoy my coffee and a quiet household.

In hell. Welcome!
At a trailhead waiting for my buddy. He just built a new steel hardtail with studded tires so we'll crush the little snow and ice left before more rain arrives this evening.

Stayed up until 3 am last night to get pics of the comet, but overcast the whole time. :disgust:
Switched the cross bike to trendy but illegal 40 mm tires. What a differences that makes for comfort when you JRA. To test them out, I took the bike to a good bakery (28 km round trip) so I could replenish the caloric losses upon my return home. :D

Did about a 50 mile road ride yesterday with the work-adjacent roadie group. Ghetto 1x is derailing and jamming in the chain guide on any big descent...need clutch rear mech so I ordered a cheap Apex. Definitely need an offset chainring for a better chainline, too, but just don't wanna spend even more on this thing.

Those guys can ride hard but the selfie and Stava and map-generated movie stuff is way over the fucking top. I clearly missed where any of this is so interesting to anyone else as to warrant this level of self-attention. There's some nice scenery, but we almost lost a guy crossing into the oncoming lane while shooting 30-40 selfies from different angles while on the move, and apparently reviewing them too.

Dragged myself up the mountain on rigid singlespeed this morning as a solo penance/cleansing/yummy breakfast.

2800 verts on dirt. More than I’ve done in months. Feeling ok somehow? Perhaps just delayed onset…

I think I saw the sun today too. No longer sure.
