hi errbdy
much to nobody's surprise, i backed out of the deal on the 550i I was looking at. Owner was expectedly pissed, but the thought of riding my bike back to the house after taking the car to the garage for the 8th time weighed pretty heavily on me. Oh well!
kid's birthday this weekend. maybe I will drink a beer. Maybe i'll even ride a bike.

No hurricane here, but I will be wandering back into the shit storm that is the local Governor's race by doing some more door knocking. Need to swing by the LBS as they called yesterday to tell me an actual 10 speed derallieur had been delivered by brown Santa.
Morning! WFH until mr. plumber arrives, then off to the office, then a work party till late. Is it Saturday, yet?
Morning Monkeys.
FTS Friday, yay. Have training until lunch, then hide until 2:30. Still not sure if I am being trained or if I am supposed to do the training, guess we'll find out.

Negative. Too much going on this weekend. I'll likely be getting the roadie setup on the trainer for a little bit though.
i've been spending a lot of time on the trainer too.
Really well. I got the "I can't say that the position is there for you, but I can say the budget is there in 2019 and [the Products AVP] speaks very highly of you as a candidate and potential addition to the team. I have only heard good things about you and there is a reason why he asked you to talk with me."
rain, rain, more rain. also 2 kids and a full time job.
Mr. Plumber still hasn't arrived and I need to leave for work in 10. The state of contractor business is very sad in this country, apparently.
I saw one that was along the lines of: "Do what you love and..... congratulations you just turned your favorite hobby into a job."
Be this guy. He gets it.

the good news is there's no timeline impact to the major deliverable i was surprised with a few weeks ago.
the bad news is i just created more work for myself.
I find myself distracted by shopping for forks and checking if boost adapters exist for my $20 front hub.
And checking the weather over and over to see if there suddenly isn't going to be an inch of rain at Whistler tomorrow.

Still gon'rain.
Blahst.

Anyone have experience with Gore Bike Wear? Are their size charts accurate? most brands i'm a Large, a few XL (that run small) but for Gore I'd take an XXL....
Id think you could just use the rotor shimz and an axle spacer, then redish the wheel.
Generators are already for sale on CL
also 15hp rotary screw air compressors

20mm boost?
Mm... unclear what you mean. Don’t we just need to fill the space between hub and the wider fork?
15mm
aren't the disc mounts wider on the boost fork?
ah ok. for 20mm axles going from non-boost to boost all you need is a 5mm rotor shim (or shim the caliper 5mm closer to the rotor). doesn't work like that for 15mm IIRC
Ah yes. One would think so... but everything stays centered. I.e. use a spacer on each side of the hub.aren't the disc mounts wider on the boost fork?
The newer fork is the bigger issue...
Pan would only hold 3 shells. I was lazy. Hell, I'm *always* lazy.
But your point is well taken. And I had to scoop up significant spilled grub due to tortilla-ruptures.
