[CBJ]

At the airport. Should have left 11am but now its scheduled for 4am. Enjoyed my 17 Dollar late plane voucher salad and beer experience and now not much else to do. If only the bar was open but everything has closed down. I should have view the house we are looking at today but that is not happening since I am not landing before 5.30pm today. This is the beast:

@jdcamb approved?

 

[Kevin]

Looks like it could use some Kunstgræs.

 

[CBJ]

Combined with pump track.

 

[stoney]

Not Thursday here yet, but I just got home from a 14 mile night ride. And... off to sleep now.

 

[johnbryanpeters]

meh

 

[Nick]

Meh, indeed.
Nice looking haus there CBJ.
Up earlyish again, coffee and work. Sigh.

 

[Serial Midget]

Morning Monkies, feeling like I could get through most of the day without being a total pusy but promises will not be made. @CBJ the looks like a lot of house and property for the money. Being the lazy ass that I am it also looks like a lot of responsibility and upkeep...

@stoney......you would have hated the left lane drivers i dealt with yesterday....

 

[jstuhlman]

@stoney......you would have hated the left lane drivers i dealt with yesterday....

pass on right, move back into left, give double brake tap for brake light "f.u.", leave 'em in your rear view mirror.

parents arrive for biannual visit today.

Got off shift last night and my truck would not start. Damn I had the same issue 6 months ago. At least the repair should be under warranty. Low voltage to high pressure injectors puts the truck into no start. needs a new PCM. I walked laps around the parking lot waiting for the tow truck. It took 2 hours for a Large tow to arrive that could handle a 21 foot long 8000 pound truck. I walked almost 6 miles while waiting per my fitbit which beats sitting on my ass in the truck surfing the net on my phone

Lack of motivation to go to work hopefully coffee will negate some of that.

Mornin!

This represents my return to work and the internet after a week in Hawaii. Pretty good vaca overall, the first half was pretty rainy so we just made the most of it until the sun made an appearance for the second half. Got in some hiking, swam with sea turtles, and ate a whole lot of good sea food.

Now at work which gets a solid MEH. Gotta earn that skrilla though to pay for such vacations however.

Morning all. Had a fun but slow ride home last night. The more I do this bike commute home, the more I want to do it, and I keep finding little urban obstacles along the way to keep it interesting. Started stirring at 4 AM this morning and out of bed at 5:30, delivered the boy to football conditioning, 30 minutes of weightlifting with a buddy, home, shower, eat, delivered the girl to school, home, huffed at the wife for still being in bed, caught the train and was at my desk by 8:30. Coffee # 3 in my hand and now I need to find some LED tiles post haste for NBA Eastern Conference finals. Is anybody here a professional in the broadcast quality LED A/V world? Sell or rent, U.S. based inventory is a must on this one. no time or money to ship from Chickidy China, the Chinese chicken.

 

[Full Trucker]

Why am I not skiing today? I suppose I still could blaze up there for a few runs... tomorrow for sure.

 

[Yossarian]

@stevew are you in Atlanta? . that helo would be nice, but the lack of logs (lost?) and the huge pile of parts is a bit concerning. Then again, what the hell do I know about aircraft maintenance. that is another monkey's job.

Jelly,

Also closer to Friday!

 

[canadmos]

Yo. What a shit show it was trying to get to the trail head last night. It took exactly 2.5 hours, for a trip that should take an hour at the most. Apparently some girl ran out onto the freeway and caused the police to close all the lanes. This then turned all the country roads into a chaotic mess. I was out in the boonies making my way around, where I witnessed another accident. Fucking plebs, learn to drive.

The group ride was great, though. Half the dudes bailed (great start to the season guys!), but the ones who showed up certainly enjoyed the perfect weather and trail conditions. We hauled through the forest, got chased by dogs, slapped pedals on rox and then sprinted to the beer.

Looks like its going to reach almost 85F here today. I'm tired as balls, but think that I will have to ride tonight.

 

[stoney]

Here and mostly awake. Trail I rode yesterday is super buff and painful on the Yeti which has just too much travel and tire. I need to get my ht working again - anybody have a 1.125", full length steerer (or just really long), qr fork that they want to sell?

 

[Pesqueeb]

I should probably get a hair cut and do something about the beard. Getting pretty unabomber-y.

Go ski! I'm a working man.

HA! good luck with that search.

Fox makes a 32. I just need to find one that's not at full retail...

@jdcamb approved?

Looks good.

how long? i might have something for you

 

[stoney]

As long as possible. It's going onto an XL with long HT.

 

[jonKranked]

probably not long enough but text me tonight and i'll measure. its a 2002ish? Marz z1. pretty much indestructible.

 

[Nick]

@stoney .. should have kept your Big Top?

 

[stoney]

@stoney .. should have kept your Big Top?

Had I know Backcountry existed before I sold it? Yes I would have kept it. Too late now though. Now it's about getting the Access running again. I have everything except functioning brakes (see cooked Avid's) and a fork. I need a lower cup for the HS, but that's less cost.

 

[Nick]

Is the headtube on that frame 44mm? If so I have a lower headset cup that will let you run a tapered steerer fork.
I also have a pair of xt 785s for you, just needs new pads.

Every car should have one of these in the window:

Paging @SkaredShtles...

Fuck off. I'm 1st in line.

Oh, wait - I need 15mm.

Never mind.

You approve of the light, no?

Perhaps you bought a KatrinaJeepFord a la MMike?

Mornin!

You coming out to play at ML +/- WR Sunday?

I rode to work after a week driving in because of flu-hell. :feelsgoodman.gif:

[I Are Baboon]

Good morning! My Garmin 920 thinks I've been riding and running in outer space. I mean, I know the neighborhood hill is tough, but it is not 65000' elevation tough. According to what I am reading on the internets, I am hahaha ROFLWOFL fucked. Will be calling Garmin after my 11:00 meeting, but with the device being two years old, I am most likely SOL.

Very much, yes. As for ML, what's the feedback on snow? It's supposed to rain/snow today and tomorrow.

 

[6thElement]

Weather forecast called for 4-12" over 6000ft this morning through the storm.

Yea, I was about to email the group about the snow. Methinks we are due for more than is feasible to ride in.

 

[StiHacka]

Meh. No riding today, trails are soaked and not enough time for fun anyway. Work still sucks.

 

[stoney]

I talked to Dennis last night, he's probably going to bust out the snow bike and go do something else.
