In the effin er again, thus time work related. Torn plantaris muscle in the calf, and apparently its bleeding behind the muscle... All I can say is he hurts as bad as I do right now, probably more

7 mile run in the rain first thing this morning, and had to take a dump from mile 4 on. 
Doing that now while typing this out on my phone FYI.

Morning monkeys!
Running some errands, then golf this afternoon. Packing to leave on vacation tomorrow.
Be safe out there.

Just. Ow.
Riding somehow is on the radar, rainy or not.
FML I am in pain right now
Had some good stouts with @jstuhlman last night. Always cool to meet a new monkey and we of course talked a lot of nerdy bike talk.
Stop at the dog park?7 mile run in the rain first thing this morning, and had to take a dump from mile 4 on.
Going to see if I can get everything done that I set out to accomplish today; mostly car related items. Including but not limited to sealing the reverse lamp assembly, polishing the head light lenses, getting rid of the damn pine needles out of the engine bay and plasti-dipping the mustache on the grillz yo.
Also meeting some random guy at 2pm to give away my old exhaust (minus downpipe). Hopefully he doesn't flake out for the 3rd time.
Had some AWESOME Indian food last night.
I have some hubs in need of some rims.
Coffee and a ride ahead. I expect great conditions and 700 people in my way.

wait until you deal with plantar fasciitis.....
3 big beers, and I'm hungover. I think I'm officially old.
35 years of wearing vans ftw!
Do they look like sneakers?
Couldn't you just find a nice green lawn to squat on at mile 4?7 mile run in the rain first thing this morning, and had to take a dump from mile 4 on.
unpossible. crispy bacon is best bacon.
murican sneakers made in china to keep north koreas bestest leader in bad haircuts.
Finished installing the attic fan this morning and still had an hour to chill in the hammock before the wife and kid got home. Now I'm on kid duty while wifey sleeps
you are not a father until you have had your first kid cleveland steamer.....
Went and raced bikes with a bunch of friends. I chased down some juniors near the end to make myself feel good. Now there is a double bacon cheeseburger and two fresh spring rolls in my belly.
It was quite transformed into charcoal.
In other news, Costco had Delice de Bourgogne today. That is one amazing cheese. Wow. I last had some when living in Portland in that odd biking filled year before med school.
Great day today, even if I spent a quarter of it driving around.
I screwed up though with a rookie mistake, though. While rinsing this brake dust cleaner stuff off of my wheels tonight, I got some serious spray back and some of it must have got into my mouth. It tastes like how skunk smells. I want to vomit.
Also got stuck behind someone merging on to the freeway doing 40mph.....WTF MATE?!

Dude, I wish some of the drivers here would go that fast on the on ramp. They scare the hell out of me creeping along. Once they get on the highway they drive like they're on the Autobahn. But back in the city, won't go faster than 25 mph.
Same drivers will also turn left from the right lane without signaling, or looking. One of them hit me his winter pulling that maneuver. I call them Free Drivers.
I mean they merged ON TO the freeway doing 40...
But agreed, its scary. I've seen what you described too. If I'm in second gear on an on ramp, you're doing it wrong.
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Some of them won't even get up to 40mph before merging.
I worked on my own bike for a change. It was kind of therapeutic. Replaced and checked all the grommets on my rear wheel. I plan on doing the front wheel before Monkeyfest. I ate a crap load of clams today. As per tradition I ate 2 raw ones. Coarse Liverwurst and Leek focccacia, Soppreseto fennel and shallot also...
Horrible!
I had a good ride today with a friend who is a DH demon and just got a pedally bike.
It was a fun ride, but I managed to crash just as my front wheel was attemptI get to mount the ramp onto a long log ride. Serves me right for agreeing to ride an old school "Shore" trail. The log ride was over 100 ft long, and got to about 15' off the ground at its highest point, so it still felt worthwhile.
Ouch, my elbow.
Was still fun though.
Equipment note: corset air can works well
Equipment note#2: Saint brakes work VERY well.
