Turning out to be an expensive weekend. Bought a washer + pedestal and a sectional couch. Wonder what other damage will be done before the weekend is through.

Woke up with a solid headache, was late to work coz I forgot my wallet was in my hydration pack.
Got to work praying for simple work and I have to go help with an electrical issue, there's a short and all the wires are white, fucking awesome!

Raining here so no trails. Rode the past 2 mornings tho. I'm The Weird Rigid Bike Guy again!!

I really need to get on top of logistics and admin, but I just ignore it and surf the web. At least I got my vacation plans set for 4th of July to see the family, and a (surprisingly expensive because I forgot about unaccompanied minor airline fees and peak-season fastpass prices) weekend for my daughter to fly in and go to Kings Dominion together before I'm off on deployment.

Huzzah, found a schematic.
Faulty Relay KA37 is the guess, have permanent power to the pull in circuit on the accelerator solenoid but shouldn't, the hold in circuit functions as it should.

Morning Monkeys.

Pour one out for the fallen homies. Low key chilling with the pups today, might take Abbey down to the river since it's been a while, but it's cool and overcast today.

Awesome ride/DJ session last evening. Was on the Tracer 2 with clipless pedals as I had not planned to hit the jumps, no pads either. Got some shit from 3 guys on their cool 29" bikes, all with flat pedals ("because you can't jump with clipless pedals :rolleyes:"), pads, spine protectors, etc..
Guess who cleared the jumps on unrideable 26" wheels and who needed a lawyer for all the cases? :D
Yeah, yeah, I know, I am just cheating because I can pull up on the clipless pedals that make jumping so much easier (what now???). ;)

Just FYI: these are pretty mellow table jumps, I am not at all a competent DJ-er.

Roughly six more hours and then it’s pulled pork dinner with likely some pulled pork tacos for lunch this week.

that's not jumping
I am just reiterating what these dudes said. First, clipless pedals were impossible to jump with, later they made jumping so much easier. FWIW: I can (not) jump with either. ;)
