Morning Monkeys.

So I got about 4 feet of the top of the pipe exposed. The issue is that fucker runs under my existing mount of dirt. So half my day digging a new hole while refilling the old. But I am about where the clog is.

Manual labor is for sucks.

Above freezing means no bike and no running in da woods. The in-between season is starting early.
Guess we'll go to the place were they sell stuff to put in the fridge.

here, trying to stay busy and be positive

had a nice ride on sunday, set some PRs in different sections, making up my mind on funky saddle choices. New bike is a dream and I'm way more comfortable driving it than I was the previous one. Not sure what happened as the geometry is similar, but this one goes where I want it to so much easier. Makes cornering a treat.

Watching the shit show unfold. First appts are in 2 hours... Been getting lots of emails from the friend world in panic; thankfully nothing from you guys, so maybe you all do listen occasionally about the long-game?

looking at flights from charlotte to denver oct 7-14.....98.00.... might be to good to pass up...
71 y/o MIL flew to SJC 2 weeks ago and is supposed to be back in 4 days to watch Haley over spring break. CDC says don't fly if you're old (despite Cheeto Jesus preventing them from releasing; was leaked). She's got a long drive coming up.

Do it.

This business will have either run it's course by then and you will have scored super cheap airfare or we will all be dead. Either way, everyone wins.
flights to milan are at 650.00.

usually from charlotte...1300

dont have the cash for that though...

Great weather over the weekend. But sadly didn't get to take advantage. Spent saturday working on the car and running around. Sunday was slent relaxing and being lazy, after waking up feeling like shit with a big headache...should have persevered and gone riding.

It's almost time to start packing for the move at the end of the month.

Second day of +10c sunny weather here. I'm hoping it stays and we can ride dirt early.

I guess I better get my back wheel sorted out. It still has a tube, two dents and loose spokes from Pisgah.
