¿¡ Friday GMT ¡¿
- Thread starter Toshi
- Start date
Another beautiful day on tap. Just bidding my time til tomorrow so I can ride. And then again on Sunday. Ran again last night, trying to get some endurance back. Going to attempt the Presidential Traverse in June if all goes as planned. Had several conversations with recruiters in CO. Fingers crossed that one of those pans out.
Ya'll are all spawning like salmon. Must be spring.
Dear Monkeys: HEY!
30 flat miles on the road bike last night in 1:49. 16.5 mph. That was my longest exercise session since December and my endurance is lacking.

Morning monkeys!
Going to Acushnet today to climb a poison ivy covered slope to replace a remote unit. Fun times.
Be safe out there.

FYIF. Work has been very busy for both my wife and I this week. Hoping to get out for my first mtb ride of the year this weekend since the weather is finally warmer and the snow has melted.

I should only work two days every week. Imma ride today, and maybe tomorrow with $tinkle.
Got a nice ride in last night with Teh Incredibly Talented Suspects™, beautiful out. Rode with only one layer on the whole time, hard to believe it's still winter just a few miles up the hill. Looks like some decent snow might be coming in for skiing, making this that magical time of year in Colorado when your laundry is equally split between ski outerwear and riding gear. Love.
If you're looking for a tech job, we're hiring 3 people off the street in the next 3 months. You just have to deal with me ****ting down your neck every day.
Oh man...
Went to throw some new pads on the wife's vehicle (formerly my truck lol). Rotors are way worn so things started to get a little complicated.

I hate it when a 2 hr job turns into a huge pain in the ass.

Finished my funemployment project today, a cool storage shelf/workbench with hangers for my guitars underneath. Going to get a huge music-themed framed poster to take up the whole wall above it, should look pretty awesome. Very pleased with how it came out and glad to not be looking at a giant bare wall anymore
Picking up the GF today from work, going out to dinner then having a quiet night in. Getting up early(ish) tomorrow to drive up to Burlington, VT and spend the day walking around. Her one request was to go to the Magic Hat brewery. Winning!

Sometimes, fvck bicycles. 
Hi!
Because broken?Sometimes, fvck bicycles.
good god. it is just now 4pm. :/
Yes. All the sh*t I've been putting off maintenance wise due to single income family cash issues finally caught up with me today. Blew up the chain and bent my derailleur. I'm still fvcking pissed. Not getting back on the bike till I can take care of all the sh*t it needs. Brakes and bleed, chain, cassette, derailleur, fork and pedal rebuild. Gonna have to sell the kid or drink less beer.
Dont do anything drastic!!!
CrabJoe: don't hang set-neck guitars for a long time.
skibunny: hola chica! ¿Cómo estás?
'squeeb: on one hand, you shouldn't sell the kids. One the other hand ... beer. (think about it) I have a stack of BNIB 9-sp drivetrain parts, and I can prob help with the brakes and fork. (pedals? wtf did you do to pedals??)
You know what I love? That one of my local, ride from home trails now pretty much ends at a micro-brewery. That, and pie.
Good day.

Got a ride in on the Moonlander today. If you jump off something it lands with a rather interesting thud. My legs are sending me WTFO messages. This bike is like a rhinoceros - it does not accelerate worth a damn but once it gets up a head of steam, look out. It is surprisingly nimble on twisty narrow stuff.
