NORCAL is the hizzle
I'm in for 100 per day. Starting .... now. GO!
I'm in for this as well. I start by doing as many as I can in the first set. Currently up to around 55. Then I split whatever's left into 2 sets.

If you have a corner, kitchen counter dips are pretty good too.

Plant Monkey strikes again. I have been trying to find out what to do with the backyard and block the new buildings behind the house and the view from our kitchen. Then I found this old dude selling Picea Omorika for next to nothing out of his closed down nursery which is the perfect for the spot.



He also had a couple of magnolias which the wife asked for so I bought her a little Easter present. Should produce nice flowers and a shady spot on the terrasse



Had to move some stuff around and clean up so that was most of my day besides some phone meetings.

Curated and organized thousands of photos, video clips, and files on my laptop this weekend... burned 11 full DVD-Rs of data. Went from <40GB available hard drive space to ~210GB. Upgraded my OS, and all of my design software. Curated over 2000 pictures from my 21-day 2016 Grand Canyon trip alone, and the 800 greatest hits are being uploaded to Shutterfly to get a photobook made. I also went for a long walk with my gal and the dogs, and managed to sneak in a bike ride.

Stoked.

Today has been back at the job hunting game... get an interview tomorrow and a couple of other good prospects in the works. I only have about a month of unemployment benefit left, so getting a job would be AWESOME. That said, I'm sure the CARES Act would help me out greatly, as soon as the gov't figures out how to administer the benefits. Fuckers.

@TN lives closest to those trails of the active posters on here, but he doesn't ride :D

I think they're supposed to be pretty legit trails.

In hell. Welcome!
I got 40 in today already... so maybe?
That reminds me of my Shotokan Karate days. My sensei would make me do 50 on knuckles whenever I made a mistake in a routine or some other fuck up. 300-400 / evening were pretty much the norm.

Where's the fu*king Monday gone? This WFH mode sets up a dangerous precedent - long work hours without any break. There's no way I can do as many hours once I start adding commute again. OTOH, riding was pretty awesome this evening. 60F, no wind, sunny and much less damp than yesterday.
