Sick as shit with some head cold. Want to ride bike but stuck on harvest duty. Don't worry though I am not touching the fruit.

It was refreshing to smell a little rain before I opened the back door--I was shocked to see fog rolling through and mist. Went out and let it all settle on my skin for a minute... they say it won't actually cool off here until January 2016!

:wave: made myself a latte this morning. I shall drink it with you all until it's time to go sand/mud/paint some more.

It's nice up in Bellingham.
I didn't know you were from B-ham! Have a bunch of family & friends up there. Probably seen them up at Galbraith--which I haven't rode once yet. It's on the list. Next time I'm up there! :) Will you please go ride it for me today?

Spent all morning looking for a squeak/creaking noise on my bike. I had a feeling it was one of the bushing on the shock, but I took that off and the noise was still there.

It got to the point where I just took the entire bike apart, right down to separating the rear end from the front. Applied grease to everything and tightened it back up and the noise seems to be gone.....Going to go for a ride and try it now.

Only thing I didn't look at was the headset and seat post.

This also marks the first time that I've disassembled any of bikes beer free. Dunno what the hell is up with that?!?! But it seemed to go quite a bit faster. :D

@boostindoubles send some of those this way. I got a box of peaches last week, but they were over ripe already. I only got to eat half before the rest went all mushy and gross :(

I'm not. I'm from NY, but live in Seattle. I'm up here to ride Chuckanut, but might head over to Galby after lunch.

Let me know if you want a tour guide, I'm game.

If you're in a hurry but can't stand the noise any longer spray the pivots with this stuff. It does a great job of temporarily eliminating the aggravated goose sound.

Wifey's grandma had a stroke this morning. Just dropped her at the airport.

Had an informal interview for the same position within my company (different group) that i am interviewing for at [insert company name ]. Getting very interesting.

Just wrapped up the day at trestle with the groms. Little dude in blue lid a little salty with me after he took an OTB dirt nap.

These peaches are perfect right now. We'll be picking for another week and gleaning for a week or two after that. 20lb boxes for 10 bucks. They can make it to you but not fresh! Dried works though
