We got some much needed rain overnight.
shoot me now. put me out of my misery.
amazing how deep you sleep after doing a 25 mile hammerfest on the roadbike in the evening. Coffee is attempting to dissolve the mug this morning, I approve...
Morning!
Another week in the books. Good. Heading down to see tallest sand dunes in North America, pet some wolves, and visit Bishop Castle (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bishop_Castle). Now to strugglebus through the day.

@6thElement What extermination method have you chosen?
I saw that as well this am. Was supposed to see them last winter but a snow storm had them stuck in NYC for 3 days and the Portland ME show got cancelled. Bummer.
Would be easy to oblige if you lived in US.
You'll have to settle for a group hug and an apology I'm afraid.
Please swing through Crestone, visit the Cafe, take a massive dump on the floor and tell them Dan-o said Hi.
Victor Electronic is doing a fine job, http://www.homedepot.com/p/Victor-Electronic-Mouse-Trap-M2524S/100557786
Tomcat glue traps.
The Realkill insect glue trap I put down also got lucky.
The glue traps are humane when combined with a big f'king hammer.
No way - you don't get to exit until AFTER the kids leave the house.
@Da Peach all over again... approved!
Oh... you HAVE to give us the back story on this. Hippie issues in Crestone?

kid still sick. in office AM for a meeting. this weekend holds..... who knows. hopefully a ride.
Took the new climbing tree stand out last night to try it out before actually using it. It was right at dusk when a stoner kid, that was higher than Tommy Ching thought there was just some guy floating in the trees.
I had to play it up, he did not see the platform I was standing on so I told him I was stuck because I drank that helium beer and had too much.
I had to explain it to him when I got back to the truck

teacher work day. wife still out of town. chilling and drinking coffee. monitoring emails. looking at my bike longingly...s00n...
Run, dog walk, sammich and coffee. Not sure what else is on tap today, if any thing. Friend of ours spent the last 3 weeks in Brasil and is coming over tonight. He said something to the effect of how he "can't wait to get back to America and speak English", so I got him these as a welcome home present.
I looked around for a set of Truck Nutz, but they are quite surprisingly difficult to acquire.
I gave my commuter bike a nice, shiny new drivetrain (single ring up front, Ultegra cassette in back, and tons of caked on dirt scraped off of derailleur). No more bottom bracket creaks... for now. Instead my rack and rear light are rattling. Always something.
MIL just flew into town for a few days.
Funny how work just became super important!

Rear shock is probably / definitely cavitated, started making a weird squishy sound on MDH WTF???! and has been getting progressively less... progressive. Seems like there's no compressive dampening action happening. Whatever, I leave for AZ on Monday to spend three weeks rafting through the Grand Canyon... hoping to take it someplace in Flagstaff to be rebuilded while I'm on the river.
Fox? Send it to PUSH.
Have fun on the floaty float. Sounds like a real adventure ahead.
Good eatin', right there.
yep - working on a dawn patrol wilsons ride sunday!
Happy Friday!!!
So I've been all sorts of Debbie Downer leading into the lonely weekend when the wifey just made everything pretty damn good. She had no idea what to get me and I haven't asked for anything, so on a hunch she rented us a motorcycle for the weekend. Since I don't have my own street bike and we haven't ridden together since I sold Betty, she decided to rent a big ass full dress bagger to roll for the weekend. The weather should be ok tomorrow, so it will be fun. My brother in law has an Elctraglide Ultra and Jen was jealous of the cushy seat my sister has, so she rented us one to try out.
I will build myself a touring bagger eventually, but it won't have all this crap on it and most of the other crap will be removable. But for now she was sweet enough to rent one so we can pretend.

Dawn, as in sun-up ? Uuughh, why would want to ride that early ? Do you like spiders crawling on your face when you ride ? Is there a coffee shop at the dirt mounds now ?
Are going to rent one of those multi-hair tie pony tails and some chaps to complete the ensemble ?Happy Friday!!!

My best friend of the past 10 years, a mildly autistic (I suspected) cat died after noon today, during a trivial routine vet visit where the millennial vet was more concerned about her phone than about his missing pulse. I feel terrible that through my pursue of his wellness I brought an accelerated departure upon him. We miss him dearly.
Not racing VT50 this weekend.

sorry man. i lost my favorite cat back in July.

Jesus Christ man, put that away!
I have decided that tonight I will go riding. Going to go ride some shit that is wayyyy in the bush. Hopefully I don't get eaten by a bear or something.
yeah-i've been riding early and home by 1 or 2...because busy family chit. also, cooler. even if i went later, not many people rode up there (thank the fsm) so there's gonna be spiders/webs no matter what.
