Oy I am sore this morning must have been the yard work combined with helping a buddy remove the rear doors off his horse trailer ( failed hinge welds).
Coffee and ibuprofen will kick things off. And of course the last client on my list today is 400 pounds in a manual wheelchair.

Errands and trip provisioning...
Have you posted pics of the new van?
That reminds me I need to provision for my trip this weekend.
'Morning. Woke up with a blazing headache so I went back to bed. Woke up 90 minutes later feeling slightly better and now I am at work getting annoyed by everything.
I am halfway through season one of the Amazon series The Boys. Good stuff.

swapped out the rear tire on the megatrail last night. i think i'm finally reaching the point where i'm not borderline panic attack changing tires on carbon rims. or maybe it was the shed trip beforehand.
welcome to my job. all day every day.
Whats there to panic about?
hamfisting.
Still in bed. Thinking about getting some coffee. I should go ride.
Rode the Transition Scout last night, in lieu of the rim being folded over enough to see a good chunk of tire bear on the rear of the Banshee. Its been months since I've ridden that bike; holy hell was it sketchy to get back on. Two degree steeper head angle, much longer stem and the fork had way too much air pressure. And the KS dropper sucks in comparison to the OneUp. It was a little bit of a shock, as I loved that Scout. It also felt like a pig to climb with, despite having much less travel and being a few pounds lighter.
Anyways........ Work. Then hopefully dropping the back wheel off at my wheel builder for some love. The damaged rim is a RaceFace AR 30. Might replace it with the ARC 30 heavy duty version.
But first, coffee!

Its a tire. Don't you have to hamfist it?
extra hamfisty. it's an older version enve m70. on the more difficult end of the spectrum when it comes to installing tires.
What's your workout routine, Nick?
I am at work early (7 AM) after being here late (10 PM). I can theoretically get out of here at 10:31 AM today, though, so that's what I intend to do.
i need to get back on that train.
got all the way to work only to realize i'd left my laptop/bag at home.

FTFY
What was it?
I had a win with tacos the other night. My oldest is picky as hell. The youngest will eat almost anything and will try pretty much everything. Although I did get my oldest to eat meatballs as well. It funny how many things they like once you get past the initial look of disgust.
my kids love tacos as well, but they're still only into hard shell. it's a start. my kids eat quite a good variety in general, not a whole heck of a lot they don't like. they eat a ton of fresh fruit. our house goes through probably a pound of strawberries a day.
i also located another mini pump in my tool bin and installed it on my megaderp last night. needed longer mounting bolts. i was not previously aware that disc rotor bolts also fit bottle cage mounts.
For now I'm just getting my blood moving again. Compound movements, moderate weight. In a week or two I'll start focusing on a routine.
The climb up Doctor Gulch can be somewhat demoralizing, but the juice is worth the squeeze.
FTFY.
Can't be worse then the climb after Dyke Trail yesterday.
My Friday. 4 day weekend. no girls.
It's on like a pot of neckbones.

T-1.5 hours and this shit is over until Tuesday. Everything is packed in the car and ready to go. Stopping in Golden to see @Full Trucker to sell some tires, then off to the airport to fly to Seattle. 1 day riding there, 2 days Whistler. Boom!
Not yet. Hauled the R-Pod into Vergennes to get it inspected. Backing it in on return was interesting, 170" wheelbase TV, up from 135".
How is your technique? Can you get a good smoke ring that way? I need to know more.
We are under a red flag warning so no grilling for us.
