Here. Layla woke me up early. Coffee, bills, get woken up, swim for Hannah, then take test. Then I'm going karting for a while. 50* by 3pm, so maybe load the kart and chart some outdoor driving.

Went back to a place I used to train acrobatics to check if my broken back is fully healed and it is. My fitness isn't back and my ego is hurt now tho. Will consider joining a class in march when practicing flips doesn't make my muscles feel like I'm a car crash test dummy

“Well, I can stand!” – Teh Spousal Unit™ upon waking up after a day of riding fat bikes with Mssr. and Missus @6thElement.

Awesome, thanks for posting. I looked for it on GCN+ this morning and it wasn't listed. Great finish to that race.

Teh Spousal Unit™ was in bed most of the day yesterday and most of the day today. We'll see what tomorrow brings, as I'm supposed to be back at work.

Morning Monkeys.

Yesterday was a bust. Got the welder and picked up some wire for it but the moto shop was confused by my request. I had asked about the new Surron Storm Bee and she said "yeah, we have 40 coming this week and will be available this weekend". It was the stupid Light Bee they got 40 of. Ugh, huge waste of effort.

Full double thumbs up on the Tilt.

Perfect for my long-range ride needs. Still a hoot coming down; more composed and mellow than my Balance, which is always pushing me fasterfaster.

Got a little shock tuning to do...some volume spacer to start.

Stayed up too late baking bread so I said fuck it and slept in. Amazon finally admitted they lost my order and issued a refund. Good thing it was for spare parts for the camper not something I needed asap. Reorder is already on it's way. Other than eats and espresso I have nothing pressing to do. I think the best option will be to take the dogs on a multi mile walk

I thought @Full Trucker had trademarked TSU when referring to his better half? Or is there some sort of licensing agreement in place here?

We have a mutually beneficial arrangement where I give him nothing and he gives me nothing in return. It works out quite well in practice, seldom are expectations not met.
I must have missed the paperwork for this arrangement. I assume it’ll need to be notarized?

Just installed these on the singlespeed. Counterpunch. Designed to protect hand, but I am hoping it is a nice way to achieve a bit of an alternate grip without going full bar end.

They replace an outer ODI clamp and have a bar plug vice clamp.

Managed to....melt?....a 1" hole through the shell of my <1yr LL Bean down jacket?! Not pleased.
They'll probably hook you up if you contact them given the age of it, no?

/me is back in Denver now. I should hop on the Peloton or go ride outside perhaps
