Jesus it’s early. Like, even the dogs are like “WTF, over?”

Breakfast made, coffee being consumed, wicked early start to ski a 14er. What have you mother scratchers got today?

 

[johnbryanpeters]

Dispose of trash and recycling, walk a trail that has become overgrown, invent a day...

 

[velocipedist]

Torrential downpour and 69°.

Perhaps off to the climbing gym, but decidedly lacking motivation.

and out of coffee fuckz...

Screaming baby. FTS. Bought Captain Marvel last night and stayed up late with Haley watching it, then proceeded to not sleep until 1am. Haley's new favorite movie is CM and she loves that it's a girl kicking serious ass. Also that for her to become her strongest, she has to remember all the times that she didn't quit and got back up after hurting herself. Seriously good messaging for young girls.

Garth tonight. Still didn't get my presentation finished yesterday.

 

[jstuhlman]

stayed out way too late and had way too many beers hanging with some buddies i hadn't seen in a while. installed new drivetrain while doing so. good times but my head is not pleased this morning. humid and rainy here. taking 9yo to a party and not sure what else today...

 

[SkaredShtles]

Niece's graduation party today... I should probably get some beer for myself.

 

[Pesqueeb]

0830 and no cops on the street yet, so off to a good start I guess. Had the last of the carrot cake for breakfast. Guess I should do something today to burn those calories off.

Same here. Just had a double chocolate muffin and fried chicken leftovers for late breakfast and a feeling that the first beer of the day is not too far away either. Now house chores though.

 

[Toshi]

Working 5-10 PM today. All I have planned before then are some minor errands including getting the Land Cruiser’s Nokians remounted on the Tundra wheels instead of the super ugly Rockstars that my neighbor somehow favored.

 

[eric strt6]

Marty rolled in from Durango at 9:30 last night. we stayed up late talking and having beers. Heading off to the lake with the Kayaks in a while to drink more beer and hang out

 

[rideit]

Snowed here last night. Juneuary...

The weather isn't changing. Totally fine... It was like this back in the 40's-60's too...

 

[Adventurous]

Mornin.

Someone decided to knock on our camper door to ask for jumper cables. By the time I got out of bed and answered the door they had split. Thanks, dick.

I cant see Rockstar rims without irrational, blinding hatred taking over. They just might be the gaudiest wheels to ever exist. The personification of Luke Bryan country music.

 

[StiHacka]

Hmm, the soviet variety is especially shitty.

Trails are mint.

The local Les Schwalbe wanted $144 to unmount the Nokians from one set of wheels and mount them on the other. That’s the same physical task as swapping out winters, for which they charge $100 (and Discount Tire $64-75).

That’s just stupid. I’d even pay $100 to save a bit of my own time but that’s just insulting as it is.

ride done. no juice whatsoever. clips working out though but may need to shim the cleat our a smidge.

I’d ideally have it done for free, for barter of those ugly Rockstars

If I had a neighbor who liked those wheels, I'd move.

He was two doors down. And a dentist to boot!

I assume the kind of dentist who makes grillz for white people with corn rows.

Now he is in Morrison so serves the unwashed hippies drinking organic Kombucha

I wonder how much I could charge dumb hippies to drink some festering beverage made from their own unwashed microbiome?

 

[rideit]

We will call it 'Purine'.
Make a million.
Maybe we could get Gwyneth Paltrow on board?

I knew of a musician in Asheville who would periodically eat rancid meat as a way to purge his system. A little DIY food poisoning youtoob tutorial could probably generate some revenue.

 

[johnbryanpeters]

Did some trail work

 

[canadmos]

Rode some nice true good ole rocky and rooty single track today. Didn't quite go as far as we hoped, because the black flies were absolutely swarming. But fun times. Super tight single track, how it should be.

Though the poverty line seems to be pretty evident up here, so these trails dont seem much traffic, I'm guessing. Cool spot though.

Haven't ridden on sketchy pallet bridges in a while. Memories...

 

[Nick]

Someone please remind me next March or so to start pedaling earlier than May or so. Kthx!

Holy shit you guys. That pile of snow-covered dirt was REALLY tall.

Where did you plank?

Ride today was 31miles, 5000ft vert and the last big climb of the day had 98.6 freedums as the high temp...too hot.

Nice! I mean, except for the hot. Would have ridden with ya today had it not been for previous idiot ski plans.

We skied the Tuning Forks, off the summit of Torreys. That fucker is real tall.

 

[jdcamb]

Replaced 28' of cinder block wall. With Stack-able Blocks. 8 pallets worth. Hit a tree sized log with the boat. Immediately headed back to the Marina. Lake Ontario is no joke right now. Burned 14 gallons of diesel over 11 miles. The Channel markers are all below water level. I was lost more then once.

How was the snow?

 

[Full Trucker]

How was the snow?

I bought it was great, at least the top 3/4 of it. Pretty good corn snow, got real manky towards the bottom. We were probably an hour late on our timing to get marginally better conditions.

 

[eric strt6]

5 hours to do a full circumnavigation of the lake, around 14 miles in total in the Kayaks. I'm a bit stiff in my lower back but my ankle feels great.
