Mornin!

Ride yesterday was just one of those rides. Tweaked derailleur hanger almost ruined the ride, and Yeti gave me the wrong one when I bought it all those years ago. Did my best to compensate for the tweak and moved on.

Until I hit a tree and made my wedding ring look a lot less ring like. Hammered it back into a circle when I got home, but I suppose now I should remove it before riding.

At the DMV before they open to get the Sprinter registered. The line is literally a couple city blocks long. But maybe not so bad since everyone is spaced out? Holy cats.

Generally speaking, wearing any kind of jewelry when riding or doing heavy work is not to be recommended.

Head... Doesn't hurt, but not happy. Probably drank 2L of water through last night, which is helping with said head...ache. Going to the lake and on a hike today. Back is sore from my swim, but in a good way.

I have never worn a wedding ring, or any ring for that matter.
Witness one de-gloving and you won’t either.

Fast ride yesterday left me shattered for day.
Slept like the dead and now merely severely dehydrated.

Sssh, don't say this too loud! You don't want another fellow monkey looking for a new job, or?
