Hit the dirt at 7 for 2hrs of awesomeness.
Just cracked first Dales of the day.
Gonna fuck around with the boat, need to siphon some bad gas out of the below deck tank.

Just finish playing 18 with @Adventurous . Fun course and lost far fewer balls than usual. Not bad for the first time out this year.

Might even manage to get out for a bike ride during nap time. Fingers crossed.

Contractor #2 didn't show this am, despite talking with him this am about his being here 1hr later. Currently working on mitre cuts of stone veneer. Ugh.

Big bike fork service.
It is apart and everything is now clean.
Beer break is about over.
Time to put it all back together.

How did the bike taste, Nick?

I did errands after finishing a devious puzzle.

Bikes have been ridden. Now for an ice cold shandy. Need to mow the lawn and then bbq some burgers. Lady friend wants to start a fire, which will be nice, but I'm going to probably pass out next to it and get eaten by bugs.

Don't mind the dirt tan and it's kind of hard to really grasp the colour difference, but this red/purplish spot on my leg is from when my calf hit the rear tire/chainstay super hard, well over a month ago.

I think I need to go see a doctor about it. The skin over the area is now hard and gets itchy some times. But it kind of stings if I poke it and other times it feels numb.

I thought it'd just go away like a bruise, but it hasnt changed and the skin hasn't gotten any better in a while.... :confused:

That looks like a serious case of footsyzikaebolaids.

Did it turn deep purple like a really gnarly bruise but a bit squishy feeling if you pressed on it ? Could be a hematoma which is a congealed quantity of blood that does not get reabsorbed back into the body. Sometimes they have to be surgically drained.

It looked like a normal bruise at first, then that went away and left this reddish patch which looks like a rash.

Need to find a walk in clinic that is open and free of the covid...

Tire burn? That takes a long time, don't ask me how I know. I use Bepanthene or similar for that. (https://www.bepanthen.me/en/bepanthens-range/first-aid/bepanthen-plus-cream/)
