Well I’ve made it 5 years at the insurance agency. Was hoping things would get better here but my boss/agency owner is a fucking moron. Applied to 5 different positions on LinkedIn over lunch. Peace out assholes.
++++++-Oh Look Another Monday-++++++
- Thread starter sunringlerider
- Start date
Afternoon. Last Monday of the school year (thank the lord). I scooped MANY scoops of ice cream for my kiddos today and they all enjoyed it (I even got lots of hugs and thank you's from them too). Gymnastics presentations tonight and that wraps the season for the year. Summer practices start up in a week or so. Maybe I'll get to ride my bike soon!
Haven’t quit yet. Planning to look at as many options as I can. Kind of dove head first into this one. Looking for a step up and lot a lateral move. Really would like to just work for myself but benefits is kind of key at my current point in life.
Just reflecting on the last 5 years and it really hasn’t been positive.
Well that was pretty useless. Just spicy because whole team was able to be straight forward with mgmt about issues coming down from them...
Could just leave a pile in one of the 6 empty offices at the moment.
IT'S RAINING
Just one? Start making a pile now so a hardened poo cairn remains as your legacy.
My 67 year old boss is starting to talk about retiring. Need to decide if I begin executing my exit strategy with him or wait for his replacement. Was really hoping the boss would stick around a little longer…he’s probably the best upper management person we have right now.
Rode the rollers this morning, bc no time for a real ride.

woot woot We hired a Paramedic to be the OPS manager for the ambulance side of the company and I will be the OPS manager for the Paratransit side. Previously I was doing both and it was killing me. I like this, same pay less work WIN
Not sure it can rain even more than it has been.
Monsoon season to begin in Colorado, Southwest US
The Southwest US monsoon season officially begins this week, which includes portions of Southern California.

Old riding buddy on the west coast is selling a hardly ridden, super nicely built Canfield Balance. Once he sent me the ad he had me asking lots of questions and I’m trying to talk myself out of it. It’s reeaaally nice but I think a bit much for the trails around here and I already have a DH bike…but if I close my eyes I think I still want it.
Someone needs to buy the thing before I do something stupid. Again.

Nope nope nope. Trying stand firm with will power. I’m sure he’d ship to you though
c'mon...you can sell your current bike to offset the cost. i ride a nomad around here...you can do a balance!Nope nope nope. Trying stand firm with will power. I’m sure he’d ship to you though
You two aren’t helping lol.c'mon...you can sell your current bike to offset the cost. i ride a nomad around here...you can do a balance!
Alright you two here’s the ad. What do y’all think? I know the dude and have bought several bikes from him. His word is gold to me as far as condition. I have little doubt it’s in near new shape…

Not enough anodized green shit to go with the dvo stuff
hard pass
just buy the fuckin thing
Seems like a good value, too bad it’s too small for me. I’m out, so I guess the only option is for you to buy it
Don’t worry about it being too much bike for your trails, you can always find fun stuff to fuck off on, but the bike that makes you giggle
well have you bought it already?
Not yet, but it’s still early. My willpower is doing better than expected. For now.
you won't regret it.
thanks homie.
@jebfour take a look at the link below. Let me know if you have any interest. it's really quite dialed.
Absolutely a VERY nice build Nick. Too big for me unfortunately…
Are you sure? I converted inch>mm and my large is very close to the medium canfield.
I’d have to think so…and maybe the other bike is too big if that’s the case. I’m barely 5’8”. My last Turner was a small.
