Did my first shuttle runs since 2011, Facebook reminded me of a broken collarbone this morning so I called my last run after doing a right foot off and under the pedal then a left foot off and shoulder glancing a tree not long after.
There was at least a couple of "Did somebody bring a hardtail, is that a hardtail?"
Had a great day and realised that I may not be too old for moderate DH stuff on a hardtail, the bike was flawless all day.
The only thing I didn't like is that the aluminum pedal pins get way more slippery than steel in the rain.

Hopefully riding, probably not mtb as still wondering if I fractured something in my wrist last Saturday. I should do something about that.
An inch of rain, went to a Dead cover band gig last night, music was OK, watching the attendees was, ah, interesting.
It’s raining. I was so excited that it is raining I went and rode 2 hours in it. I am soaked, but it was awesome.
Might swim with the kiddos later, might not.

Having only MTB'd a few times this year she crushed it in the 100 mile race and then some of the trail riding she did clipped in on the rest of the road trip was super slick/technical (normally flats on her trail bike). Obviously not going to be able to cure the arthritis, but the carpal is doing better and the grips that @Westy recommended have been amazing for her.
OOoff ... one too many beers yesterday. I feel tired. Not riding AFAIK as the usual suspects are all out of town, busy with fam, working or .....
dislike.

'Morn. We took in a foster pup yesterday and she slept right through the night. The next few nights are the real test though...the fosters always sleep great that first night.
I got up at 5:00 so I could get my bike ride done before the weather turns to hell. I did 57 miles on wet roads then ran two miles, and I was covered in muck when I finished. I am not convinced my shower got it all off.
Foster dog. Five month old, 20 pound "lab mix" with the freaky eyes. Her name is Star and I call her "Star Crunch"

You following me?
Hit the beach yesterday. Off to Rainier today. I didn’t exactly pack for the current temps there, but what could go wrong?
well drillers arrive for site inspection today, also looking forward to getting the boat out and run everything through its paces before open water
Big mountains up in the north are known for their consistent and mild temperatures. Also the mountain goats like it if you scratch the tops of their heads right between the horns.

Started running regularly again today, five years ago. 1 mile per day minimum, usually more. Not much faster, but feel better, body fat is down, resting heart rate and BP are too. Going for a good trot on the trail...

Groan. And a little ugh.
Wanna get lean ? Throw some weight on your back and hike up and down mountains 12 hours a day for a couple months. I no longer have legs. These things are freakin Trail Hammers.
Working in the 'Pod, all sorts of tornado alerts, continued what I was doing. Got quite wet walking back and forth between the camper and the shop in the garage.
Chicago said “no, speed tape is insufficient” so we were punted two gates over. Looks like another NG, this one with the back hump from the satellite internet upgrade
Trying to get Frita ready for a day trip to the beach tomorrow. Decided to clean up the area around the water heater. The new one is the same as the second one, but the door fits kinda funny. Got the bump stops installed and need to cut the driver's side steps out. Good times.
There was a field of bison here and the tourists would try to pet them. They weren't some hybrid, they were wild car-sized animals. They had to moving the bison on account of how the tourists were tracing parabolas.
People are just as dumb here, the goats look small and cuddly but those horns have been known to disembowel people.
Yeah, pardon my french, but that fucking thing looks dangerous. That stance is predatory and aggressive. And it's jacked. However I can also imagine two redneck parents telling their 9 year old to pet it while they take a picture.
