Hey bro..... Love how you just... Show up back on the monkey. Congratulations on hitching up btw.
Spent some time visiting family on the east coast last week. Every time I go out there I am reminded of how much better Cali is 
The only thing I really appreciate in NJ/NY is that the ocean is warm enough to just float around in for hours. While in NYC checking out some bars and restaurants it started pouring around 10PM. You can't wear a rain jacket in 80deg heat and 80% humidity cause it will be just as wet inside. We were forced to wander around getting soaked while trying to hide under umbrellas. On a positive note the food at Boqueria was delicious and Brandy's Piano Bar was a super fun, high energy start to the evening.
Spent last night in SF taking a client out to dinner on the company dime. SF was gorgeous, around 60deg at 7PM, perfect for walking a few blocks to and from dinner. If you're looking for classy dining, great food and an interesting history, Johns Bar and Grill just off Powell st has it.

Yeah, it is, no question. Please remain there and defend it while we suffer on.Spent some time visiting family on the east coast last week. Every time I go out there I am reminded of how much better Cali is

Fixed that for you.
Went for sushi at lunch, with a friend. As we were eating, in walked a short, thin 60-something white guy in a dress shirt/pants combo, with a 20 year old, thinner than him and a foot taller, black girl wearing a skirt so short I could see up it from across the room. Guessing it wasn't his daughter here to tour the USC campus. The three sushi chefs couldn't hold in their amusement. They were falling over themselves and all but pointing.
Thinking of buying a set of flat pedals for my trail bike. Convince me one way or another.
do you own a pair?
If unsure, I'll lend you a pair for a few rides. I think the odds of them causing you to crash and burst into flames are low enough, for me anyway.
I own a single pair of SPD pedals, that;s it. Pared down the parts bin quite a bit in the last few years. Thought trying flats again might give me the confidence to work on a few moves I have gone all of my MTB years without learning: how to jump, actually bunny hop, wheelie or manual. At the moment I am solely a ground dwelling entity.
Rainbow roll. One of every fish.what did you get?
now i'm wanting some sushi for dinner later
come by and grab a pair, or meet me for a beer later after work.
edit: you aren't a ground dwelling entity ... I remember you flew right off the trail at Monarch last year!

place by me does a spicy scallop hand roll that'll make you slap your momma.
one of those, and some unagi ...
Is there a good place near here? I'm always wary being so far from the coast
Good enough for small town USA.Is there a good place near here? I'm always wary being so far from the coast
on Washington; Maki. If you two come down let me know!
It feels really weird having a bike that scales appropriately, I'm not going to lie.
searing some herb-rubbed pork tenderloin. drinking a stout. stoked to eat.

All sushi is frozen to kill off parasites. Doesn't matter much if you get something thawed out in Kansas or on the beach, except Kansas sucks.
I've only flayed my shins a couple times over the last couple years.
Keep your heels down.
Damn.
Or salsaLooks like tacos will be happening in the near future.
You and your pretzel logic.
Took a giant box of bike parts to LBS and gave it to them. Better there than festering up in the shop.
Rode a bit this evening. It is one of those days when after rain, humidity is sky high and everything is inexplicably slippery, worse than when wet or icy. I survived, now leftovers of Indian curry and a Cosmo.
right on JBP!
that's nice of you to do. I mean, it has to be impossible to get quality parts for a pennyfarthing these days.
You sure you got the eon right?right on JBP!

Some f@cking people. The world just annoys the shit out of me sometimes these days. If you take issue with something someone does, or you just don't like how they are building up their new home. Grow some balls and talk to them. Don't be the chicken shit that talk all super nice and friendly to their face and turn around and file a false report to the local law enforcement.
Although, it is quite amusing when the Officer that knocks on your door to confirm a proper archery labe is the guy who helped you build it. Then said Officer goes to the one that filed the complaint and inform them of such information.
If you have not figured it out yet..... The one thing I really hate is two faced people.

Man... these guys are the best kind of idiots right here: http://trackleaders.com/ctr17
There's someone with same name as @6thElement on the tracker, had to do a double-take on that one. And i just found out I have a friend racing this year, he's holding strong just under 200 miles in after 2 days, hoping for a 6-day finish. And another couple I know are "just riding" i.e. bikepacking it. They started a couple days before the racers and are going in the same direction. The first couple racers just passed them today.
