digging it?
Professional Ski Instructors of America-archaic old school organization for these types...
Rainy and windy hurricane remnant brought rain and wind. Because I am bored, I've taken apart one of the double hung windows in the dining room as it needs some maintenance love and new putty. Based on the process and the state of the wood and weather stripping, no-one has done this since the house was built in 1936. 
A massive can of worms has been opened, and I haven't fixed the leaking wooden rain gutters yet.

Dafuq has gotten into these roadies lately?
Hello all. I showed up for my department's annual group photo then immediately left to get a paintless dent repair estimate for the Land Cruiser. (Someone dinged my driver's rear door in the last few weeks, likely in the employee garage. Gah.) Then a little tricycle maintenance at home, climbing in a bit, then picking up my 5010 from Golden Bike Shop.

At some point I'll make some edits on a paper I've been working on, too, but after a hard couple of days much of the day is dedicated to nothing.

All I ever see are the indignant ones riding 2-3 wide up the canyon, which is just as dangerous imho.
Looks like the Lions Back in Moab...
Will be interested to hear your thoughts on that thing compared to your spitty. I've looked hard at the scout a few times but never pulled the trigger.

they are starting to realize how lame their sport is, so they resort to this goofy stuff to try and make it look interesting?
As recorded on a trail last Friday, I've been waiting until today to post it...I'm so clever
Thought about posting it on a work social media account that I manage, but somehow I doubt it would illicit
many Beavis & Butthead chuckles.

No. People tend to become more eccentric and crazy with age. The crazy/hot ratio has exceeded acceptable limits.
I haven't laughed that hard in a long time! I've been having trouble with the caulk I bought actually, but it seems they don't make another latex version that will work... I spent a lot of time in Home Depot this morning. I wonder how long it takes to ship from New Zealand... that guy sure had a nice deck....
Where you been riding?
Nice! Where are you teaching? I've been at one ski school for so long and it's so mellow I don't need it, but have considered getting it for the personal benefits. How was the class?Professional Ski Instructors of America-archaic old school organization for these types...
Poor dude, freshly wed, trying to follow the rules... "Yes honey, that's a great idea honey, sure you can drive honey, whatever you want!"
Speaking of Roadies, the maintenance guy at the hotel where I stay in Brevard asked if I was a mountain biker after I asked where the key to the hose was in case my bike got too muddy to bring inside. He said some riders will actually wash their bike in the shower. Then he looks at me says, "Roadies are obnoxious".
damn. that is a bummer. some say its the best thai food in the states.
Where's your number 2 pick? Lots of good stuff on Spring Mountain Ranch just west of The Strip including Monta Ramen.
I teach at Eldora a small locals hill here in CO. Super chill vibe and good folks there. its super chill too. I took lots of clinics last season but no PSIA classes yet. planning on getting my level1 this January.
Primarily Tiger as it is the closest and rather fun. Did the new stuff off Exit 27 once before breaking my thumb.
Hit up Kachess, Mission ridge, Suntop/Skookum Flats a few times. Devil's Gulch for after work rides. Feel like I am just getting used the very different terrain and dirt compared VA.
How is the stuff near Renton?
Trench for conduit from garage to power pedestal is complete, 89' in seven days of digging. 70' of 1-1/4" conduit laid in. Power outlet box received.
VF&W wildlife biologists are weird.

Nice! I did Tiger last week and am itching to get better so I can go back, that's the closest trail with any meat to it. I can pedal to the Tapeworm area from my door; it's easy and fun, technical, nothing too special, but I'm sure thankful they are there!
You've done a lot of trails on my list--I get in the habit of going to what's closest, but am really only 45 mins away from Suntop/Skookum. Devil's Gultch is one I've had my eye on for a long time, but it's way out there!
Devil's gulch is worth the drive once a year or so. Views are awesome, the descent goes forever, and you have the choice of smooth and flowy (gulch) or a little more tech (ridge). The climb is a slog but you can shuttle if you're a quitter.
I worked on my RC truck a bit then took it for a spin out front of the house. Apparently the neighbors across the street don't like the sound of it ripping around after 10 pm. Harrumph.
(Might I note that we are about 1/2 mile from Dick's Sporting Goods Park, which has ridiculously loud nighttime concerts now and then.)

Goss hawk swooped in and ate a few Squirrels. She hits the ground pretty hard. Wakes me up each time. Kitty hates her.
Had a retired cop who lived across the street from me completely lose his shit because I was working on an idling car at 8:30PM. The same asshole busted out a leaf blower each morning to clean off his porch and driveway.
Was it the Volvo, though? I can imagine it had an unconventional idle.
Yes. The Volvo sounds much more like half of an American V8 than a riced out Honda and was properly silenced, I installed two high flow mufflers in series. Redneck pickup trucks rumbled through that neighborhood with little more than a set of $20 glasspacks constantly. The guy was just a jerk with some anger issues.
