How is everybody today?

I didn't do anything last night but clean our kitchen and b-room.

It's supposed to be in the 70's this weekend so I'm hoping to squeeze in a few good rides!! :)

Have a great day everybody!

hey stosh!
I'm tired of this snow/rain/foggy weather that's been here the last week. I wanna go riding dammit! :p Hopefully the weather is nice tomorrow so I can go. :think:

Anyways, Its been boring around here lately, but I think I've decided I wanna buy a Fox 36RC2 for my AC. Just gotta get $400 more. Anybody wanna buy a PsyloXC($150) or a Bombshell Wicked Wendy($140) or an MRP WC Sys2 4arm guide ($50)? :p ;)

Good luck selling that Psylo XC. I sold mine in almost brand-new condition for $150, but only after months of the ad being posted. The market for those things sucks.

Anyway... It's the birthday of a guy in my office so we've got cake, strudel, and other treats. Mmm... Free breakfast...

Supposed to be nice later this week, so there will be much grilling and enjoying of the warm weather :thumb:

Mornin', all.......

Didn't get off work until late last night. 2nd shift guy was late getting in, so I missed dinner. Blech. Scarfed down some chicken tenders, grabbed the bike, and headed out for a little urban ride. Not much to ride here in my little town, but over the years, I've built many stealth hits and drops in all kinds of places. Wasn't really digging on my suspension setup though. I had it set up great, but like an idiot, thought I could get it better. Wrong. SPent the better part of an hour just trying to get it back to the way I had it. I was caught in 5th element hell for awhile. :think:

Commuted to work today (via bike) - very cool, felt great. A hair under 10 miles in about 45 minutes. The first few times I ride to work I'm going to take the shortest route to work... until I get a good feel for how long it takes to get there, get showered, get back to the office, etc. Once I have a routine established, I'll start taking longer routes.

Gotta take Sean back to the doctor today. He's been sick for over a week now, and granted there's no tmuch they can do for him because he's so small, I want to make sure it's still just a cold.

G'mornin!

I have to catch up on all the work I missed yesterday because our developers decided it was a great idea to remove access for 113 customers over the weekend and I spent the entire day doing damage control...

At least there's an awesome ride to look forward to at the end of the day!

It only hurts when I try to pedal a bike or get up out of a chair. I'm going insane waiting for the Dr's appointment. I really think I will lose my mind if I can't ride for a long period.

Did a road/dirt/road loop from the house. I don't get to ride as much dirt, but it feels good not driving to ride. Started out a nice 70* but the north wind picked up and the temp dropped to a bone chillin 60* by the time I got back to the house. At least I had a tailwind for the return leg.

For now, it'll be the same route, but a little slower ride (the ride home takes me UP the bigger hills) so I can get home to give my wife a break from the kids (no day care this week). Eventually the ride home will be longer, as time allows.

That any good for your crops?
No.

But I think we'll be OK, we have ALOT of seed in the ground that has germinated, but not emerged.

Some other people on the other hand, are going to be spending a ****-ton of money replanting. 5 inch tall corn doesn't exactly like a hard frost like last night. They're the morons who planted early in April when it was 80 degrees. Hey, guess what, we still live in Illinois!!!!!!

Good Morning Stosh! :D

I think I might go for a ride during lunch today. Last night just relaxed around the house and caught up on some cleaning that needed to get done.

Have a good day! :)

Dancin' over rocks n' roots!
Morning! This is my last week with my student teacher so I am trying to catch up on as much paperwork and crap as I can! Other than that, I have lessons tonight and am going to try to squeeze a workout in when I get home. Still have to order more parts for Sq-Earl's new build so that has to get done too. He's in need of a bashguard, perhaps a new fork (either that or brakes) and a seat. I think that's all he's lacking, but I am sure I am forgetting something.
