[johnbryanpeters]

Fugn hot, back to the shed.

 

[eric strt6]

Coffee and cold pizza for breakfast.WIN. Nice thing about the Woodside Horse park is that I am camped in an area away from everyone else and it is totally quiet at night.

Jealous..... although I was in Maine a few summers where it was in the 90's during the week and there is minimal AC. Where you going in Maine?

tiny "town" where my family lives, about 15 minutes from newport off 95.

'Morning. Yesterday's planned afternoon road ride turned into a late hour on the trainer because work is a raging pile of bloody assholes. I seriously question why I continue to put up with this shit, but then I convince myself it's just a tough project I am on and the end of this project is near. That, and I am a SUCKER.

 

[canadmos]

'Tis hot as fug. Lady friend is mad at me for some unknown reason (girlz), so I have my bike shit packed for a ride tonight in the murderous heat. Fingers crossed its not raining and/or thundering.

Also, I believe I work with donkeys. They plan power shutdowns in the building but never tell me until the last minute. I get an email this morning telling me that power will be shutoff at one building tomorrow, but with no given time or any sort of details....?? Tomorrow is also a work event at the local theme park, which has been planned out for months. You betterz believe I'm going to that!

Coffeeing it nao

Oh nice. I vacationed in the Belgrade Lakes region a few time.

getting supplies so I can install conduit / run wire for 220v for the garage
that should enable me to get a bandsaw

 

[stoney]

Last 20min was straight small child screaming fest. Remind me again why?

Work meetings all day. Left an email for a teacher (mind it's summer) yesterday at 10am asking if she was able to take a call at 5pm. She emailed me back at 4:58pm saying yes. At that point I had moved on and planned on dealing with it today. I got a nastygram email this am because I didn't call last night. I'll be calling her late this afternoon instead now.

Found some youth levers for Haley last night, so that should help her ability to stop. Getting a new air fork is becoming a bigger project than I wanted, because they are all disc only. She might be getting coil instead because I can use calipers.

yeah-we always go up to see my parents in august and even though we open the windows and crank the fans in the room we stay in it's always pretty hot. plus it gets light really effing early.

oldest kid turns 14 today. ordered newish 36 laat night.

[dan-o]

Where?

Bath.
Might head over to friends place in Belgrade to swim in lake and drink his beer.

 

[Pesqueeb]

Espresso time. Lots of yard work yesterday despite the heat. I am le sore. Already balls hot. Feel like it's gonna be an inside day today.

New phone arriving today. Fingers crossed I can just chuck my SIM card in it and it’ll work. I have my doubts.

Get a calendy account, then have people set their own appointment times based on what you make available.

Morning Monkeys.

FTS Friday is off to a chilly start. Brisk walkies this morning, but strong coffee takes the edge off.


Lil Man's birthday this weekend and my oldest sister is in town to get a tat from our niece. My wife is excited, me not so much. But I think we only have a few hours with her and her sugar daddy.

There are sooooo many other things I would rather do than entertain family. This is why I moved away, to avoid my family.

Mornin!

590 miles in the books yesterday; Denver to Iowa. Today it's off to the paradise they call Indiana. Old man and I are making good time so far.

We just started using TimeTap. Unfortunately, mine doesn't work yet. I gave her two times when I would call, so she should be expecting my call in the afternoon today.

I think I'm going to buy the highest tier YT Capra AL as incentive to get my ass moving to sell the M. I don't need the extra lb less for $2k more, so carbon is unnecessary. Less than $3k for a solid bike rings true for me.

I bumped into this when looking for 'gifts' for my well heeled in-laws (who are Chicagoans) but may prove useful others looking for not too expensive wall art:

Made myself a NEMA 14-50 outlet to charge new car in the garage yesterday. Did not die. Flip breakers, follow diagram/instructions. Easy-peasy.

Wow, that does look like a killer ride. After seeing the cost of the Yeti SB165, I about died. I could see $2500 for a new rig.

 

[Toshi]

Rode White Ranch bright and early. 5:50 AM but still the 6th car in the lower lot, because Colorado people are crazy. Went OTB on Lower Longhorn with only small scrapes and bruises to show for it.

find some old BB7's. super adjustable and can be found cheap.

@stoney idea - since she has little hands you may want to consider the short throw road version of them. they pull less cable to activate, so in theory they might be better for little hands.
