Hopefully a ride before the afternoon weather arrives. First proper rain in months yesterday when it did finally arrive in the evening.
78* with 91% humidity for this mornings ride. Blech.
I successfully hit and cleared the small double for the first time. Minor accomplishment for most, but me and jumps get along like oil and water.
Big ride up high yesterday Teh Spousal Unit™ and another couple, feeling a bit tired today. One friend we were riding with brought along a nice DSLR and got some nice pics, I’ll have to see if I can procure a few. Gonna take it easy for a few days before attempting a REALLY big ride on the 4th.
Morning Monkeys.
It's race day, but if I start watching before the wife gets up it will make for a bad day. No spoilers!!!
Finally bought some proper storage boxes to put all the FIL's vinyl in since the cardboard boxes are all falling apart. So I will be going through those today and see all of what we have. We have about 200 or so albums, maybe more, it seems like a lot. But other than the KFC Christmas Album, I really haven't looked.

*Saved from FB on my phone, no idea what resolution they’ll be. If they’re shit I’ll try again.
They are not shit.
fwiw- I like your green frame more than the orange. very snazzy.
So I’ve noticed over the past few rides that my fork isn’t getting full travel. It’s probably only getting 110mm of the stated 170, and I didn’t know why. It’s probably been like this since I got the bike last November. Anycrap, a couple of Fox techs happened to be in town for a big event happening over the weekend, so I ran it by their tent. They asked me all about PSI, sag, volume spacers, etc. I had set sag to about 25% and was at the lower range of their PSI recommendation, and to the best of my knowledge there weren’t any spacers in the thing. They double checked and frickin’ A there were two of the large spacers in there, apparently that’s what they ship with? I feel like a Moran for not checking, especially considering I’ve helped several friends who weren’t getting full travel simply by suggesting they remove spacers. D’oh! At least it’s hopefully sorted out, looking forward to the next ride and not having my hands go numb on long descents.
Agreed on green vs. orange frame, the orange was a decent color but the matte green is le superbueno. Funnily enough I had the same convo with a friend last night!They are not shit.

Doing the emt gig at a horse show today. Temps are going to be in the mid 90s. Already in the mid 70s at 0830
Gas man. How the hell did they know that I got gas?
welp, nada on the agenda today, 40k peeps are leaving the sand today and tomorrow so it should be nice to have the dunes back and less vanilla ice, flat bill, cali type douche bags in town.
Had to order some cord adapters to get the fab tools working so I am waiting on the Amazonians to deliver.
Also ordered a hydraulic pipe bender, which should arrive Monday
Well pump, controller, and solar panels will arrive on Tuesday.
Thats all I got, move out, draw fire

Almost have Mullet buttoned up and my work here will be done .
We visited a local Huntsville bike shop called Southern Carnage. That place is legit. I'd come back here just to ride with that crew!
