Gathering gas line, conduit and fittings. Hopefully I don’t blow anything up.
Hoping to pedal something at some point today. Ice skating with fam later.

Hannah's birthday party at 11am. Wifey is freaking out over every detail.
I have to change the throttle cable and housing, and replace one length of fuel hose on Haley's kart today. I got a modular tool chest setup yesterday, so I started moving karting stuff and larger tools into it. I have everything transitioned from tool bags already with leftover apace, and my rolling toolbag is actually accessible now. It should make packing and unpacking much easier, as there is only one footprint vs. three tool bags.
Found someone selling all of their karting stuff, so I might be able to get a nicer folding stand, kart rain cover, and lead (at $1/lb) less than the cost of the stand alone. And I should be able to sell my stand to offset about half of it. My current stand doesn't break down and is one of the hardest parts of packing up the stuff.
She has a race tomorrow morning (@Nick if you feel like swinging by), so need to get it all done and packed into the trailer tonight.

Well below freezing today, I shall ride. Trails should be frozen and good.
Now if I could just find my damn warm riding gloves. I have a feeling that left them on the roof of my car on Wednesday night...
Told a friend that I'd goto a Christmas party tonight. Kinda sorta really would rather just not. Hmm...
Another week of perfect weather ends in rain on Saturday, guess this is Jesus’s way of telling me I’m better off grumpy and shouldn’t ride bikes to get happy
Calling the financial advisor Monday inform her I need to retire at 36 instead of 55, this is bullshit.

Rain all weekend, so indoor activities it is. Helping the youngest out with a school project, maybe some work in the garage. Meh.
windy as shit and wet outside. Home gym and house projects . kill me nao. But before seppuku I should have espresso and play with the dogs
You'd be surprised what you can get away with if you keep your income low enough. You can get govt supplemented healthcare on the Exchange, which will save a ton. That's not normal advisor level creativity though. You need to get a CFP involved; worth their weight in gold in those situations.
hello!
company party last night was fun. today is chilling and chores, gotta get the RFX cleaned up and listed, dinner later, tomorrow skiing. BOOM, it's like that.

I googled it thinking it had something to do with BBQ, but no. Well not unless acquiring BBQ is the reason for the Bassi Hog's Back. Good pulled pork takes quite a while to make you know. Why not take your time getting some ?
You gonna do some real touring, or use it a a gravel bike? From where you are, I would probably tour the Eastern Provinces before anywhere below the border.
I do lots of what I call mixed media riding, pavement/gravel/off road.
I have a Lance wannabe road bike that I don't like, no provision for fenders, drop bars, all that. I wanted backswept bars, disk brakes, no plastic, no batteries, ability to mount a rear rack if/when I might want. I saw a Hog's Back mentioned in the past week either here or on JORBA's site, looked it up, liked it.
Today I drove down to Analog Cycles in Poultney (good shop, no plastic, no carbon, no batteries), saw and rode one, fell in love, and paid for one. It's inheriting the seat and pedals from the Fort road bike, and it'll probably get a dropper post in relatively short order.
Nice. Soul riding.
been getting my beat up old self back into shape now that I am somewhat healed up. Did 30 minutes of spinning with the bike on the trainer and followed it up with 45 minutes of weight lifting. Doing ok for a guy turning 66 in 7 days
The freakin white stuff falling out of the sky again... 8" this time, overnight.
At least shoveling snow is kind of like exercise.
I decided I need a 4x4 backhoe. That would get the job done nicely.

That's what I treat it as.
Ran some errands, lifted weights, helped the middle child with a mission project, and finished the XC bike. Beer thirty.
Have recently come to the conclusion that a nice hardtail with two sets of wheels is all one really needs for a bike, unless you are road racing, but why would you do that?
Plumbing is worser... but not by much.
i imagine it is at the end of a rainbow.....and do they have a newsletter to subscribe too..?
boo this man. an efficient enderpo bike plus legs is the one bike to rule them all. my solution for 15+ years. the best.
