Off to work. Have to present $11000 temperature reading cameras to senior management. This should be great.

Think IMA go do some trailwork. First time this season. I have a nice loam track planned in an undisclosed location.

Spent some time working on the bike last night, felt good man. Cut my bars and shortened my steerer just to make it look nicer. Thought I could get away with not removing the fork but dropped some metal shavings so now I gotta wash the bike before by next ride. I should have six months or so but lesson learned.

Mornin!

Made chicken butter masala last night. It was delicious, and rich as all hell.

Today = work and fixing car. Work is proving to be quite challenging from afar, as I am most assuredly an in-person learner and this digital stuff, so far, has been frustrating and ineffective.

where the trails are
You might be too young to remember these, but back in the day you could get these vulcanized rubber patches that you would actually burn on to a tube. I wish I had one of those I'd apply it to the inside of the tire.

Otherwise yeah I'll try something like that.

i still have the glue on versions. i also remember using a clif bar wrapper to keep a tube from bulging through a tire slash in a pinch.

hrumph - busted a bean and made morning coffee. Re-tension my road wheels and track my facemask order. If
I feel ambitious, I may stencil a peacock.

'Morning! LOL!!! I shuffled through a 7 mile jog this morning on some tired legs, courtesy of last night's bike workout. I need to go eat something. Interview #3 for new job at 10:00.

Maybe. My wife may be facing layoffs so that's going to be tough to get away from. I also have been working most days this week so being away from the fam for the morning then bailing in the afternoon might be tricky. What time and day were you thinking? Friday might work, and Saturdays or sundays are OK.

You're welcome to help me explore the trails out here. They may not be as exciting as some of the good stuff we ride but they actually had dirt on them and not just rocks.

Is this by any chance the old boy scout camp?

it's good, we just signed a deal for 1.4b bio bucks, with 20m up front. that should keep the lights on through 2021 even if we fail at everything else. My boss seems to like me, like a lot, so a promotion might in the future but certainly she seems to want to keep me around. My old company just had layoffs, and I most certainly would have been let go, so I'm fairly happy with the move.

@Adventurous found my butter chicken recipe for the instant pot. i think i actually have everything too. will roast some cauliflower to go with it.

unless i decide to grill tonight.
:thumb:

Roasted cauliflower would be delicious in that. I added chickpeas, a bit more cayenne pepper than called for, and some smoked paprika, but otherwise stayed true to the recipe. Might do 1 cup heavy cream, 1 cup coconut milk next time instead of 2 cups heavy cream.

i use less cayenne so its mild enough for the kids to eat.
