Finally got in a Section 16 loop under an hour. Feel pretty good about that. Now, Le work.

HBD @maxyedor!

 

[canadmos]

Felt a little off last night. Yep woke up with a sore throat. Not allowed to go to work.

Hopefully it passes, looks like my new helmet light might show up and I'd like to try it out tomorrow night.

 

[sunringlerider]

Working on my first dose of bean juice. Busy day. Also have a meeting tonight to hear how the local town wants to reroute US 30,since their planning has turned it into a stoplight nightmare. My house is in the middle of the new route

[eric strt6]

Dogs walked and fed. And as soon as we load the horse I get to drive 648 miles today.

Good morning

FTFY.

I rebuilt my battery pack with an older board last night, seems to be working ok.

 

[canadmos]

What did you get?

A Magicshine light. It looks like a new model, which doesn't have an external battery. Battery also looks to have good capacity and not too expensive.

Went hunting last night. Didn't see a damned thing. Had a good time tromping around in the woods and pretending though, so I'd call it a win.

With no end in sight either...

You should move back to the Midwest, tHe ChInA FLu NeVeR HaPPeNeD here. AlL maDe Up.

 

[stoney]

Here. Another busy day - it looks like it will be that way until eoy. Realized last night that my my new jacket won't have insulated pockets, so I need to sort that out for the phone & batteries for Wifey's gloves. Apparently there are base layers w/ pockets, so those are on the list to get now.

 

[AngryMetalsmith]

Another round on the big blue marble, bring the caffeine.

 

[Sandwich]

Big one got the vaxx yesterday afternoon. Seems fine today- no additional signs of autism.

Can't wait for the little guy to get it so we can breathe a sigh of relief. I know we're still not out of the woods, but it'll be a lot better than worrying that every kyle or karen is carrying the black plague.

Taking a break from working out, but I want to get back into it. I have been sleeping great though!

 

[I Are Baboon]

Various traffic issues this morning. Traffic jam at my usual exit, then another traffic jam at my re-route. So, I had to take option 3. Still, it only took just as long as my normal drive was at my old job.

 

[jonKranked]

let the bad times roll

 

[slyfink]

 

[Nick]

^^^ yea, dude.

 

[slyfink]

Be safe. My first time back of after my back surgery was really slow and really short. I think I rode around the block and it was at "ride with your 4 y/o" pace. I'm pretty sure that was when I started slowing down. The "land mine" incident which @Nick can attest to was a hellacious crash was when I started largely staying on the ground when I ride. Same since I blew up my shoulder two years ago. My go-fast pace and urge is just... gone. Just assume a big throttle back going forward.

yup, this is pretty much the pace I rode at. Full loop to school and back is +/- 4km (2.5 miles), the majority is on bike path. The toughest part was going up the small hill at the end (just one block, so quite short) since my bike is single speed. There's some weirdness going on in my lower back between my ribs and hip. Still have lots to work on with physio and massage. Outside of shoulders are weak too... feels like the back of the deltoid maybe?

anyways, this was just a test. I might try and bring them to school again if weather permits, but I'm not going to be doing any long rides for a while. not till fatbike season I reckon, and then only once the trails are well established and there's no ice.

still, it felt amazing to be back on a bike again!

In between "work" I need to:

• Take out the tube and put in spooge on my new rear fatty tyre I mounted last night
• On wife's fatty, swap in the new rear tyre. Then swap bars, stem, shifter and brakes with her old trail bike
• Clean up her old trail bike and mine and list them for sale - large black anno and XL raw Turner Burners in case anyone knows someone who needs a good starter bike.

 

[Nick]

XL raw Turner Burner

I'll reach out to my buddy Mike, his giant son could use an upgrade. send me some details and a $.

2014+ DW link?

 

[SkaredShtles]

Like @slyfink , I toddled out on my bike for the first time since my accident back in late September. Only I wandered down to the pub to throw back a couple pints in the glorious fall weather.

Then, somewhat tipsy, made my way back home in the dark. Prolly should have brought a light.

2014+ DW link?

DW V3's with the ZS44 headtube from 2012ish, not the V3.1's with whatever they changed to.

Hello all

It has come to the point where I may be looking for a new job. This would be July or so--I have a 6 month notice clause and will give it until January.

You should wrap it in duct tape to guarantee success.

The original pack was. I just shrink wrapped it in tough plastic sleeve, not waterproof but should be sufficiently weather proof for night riding.

No bueno. Pretty gusty winds again today. Maybe the snow for tonight might do some help.

 

[AngryMetalsmith]

Someone must have put up one of these at @Toshi’s hospital bike rack.

 

[AngryMetalsmith]

Off to bank some moar fitness with the weighted rocky up and down.

The year they outlawed shuttlecock was the year I left Colorado.

Canada Post delivered it 6 days earlier than their estimated time.

Its a solid light and should do well as a helmet light. Its definitely bright as feck. The light itself looks a lot more blue/white than my existing lights. Can't wait to try it out, as my helmet light has been in limp mode for at least a year - basically it just serves as a backup, can't even see it over my bar mounted light.


And now just waiting for a call back from my works rapid covid test center for my appointment. Ugh.
