directly above the center of the earth
treated a nasty injury. Finger was split in half when a horse kicked and caught the hand between the hoof and a stall wall. Bone sticking out, muscle and skin hanging by a flap. Rinsed it with sterile water to flush off the debris so I could see what was up then bandaged with roll gauze and tape then sent them to the hospital. I hope they get to keep the finger.

Fixed a drainage issue that's existed since I bought the house, added a few planter boxes, and finished the expanded patio, and new patio set. Some shrubs to follow.

Totally worth all the digging.

Howdy all. Went riding today in Eastern Washington (albeit only just so, technically: Cle Elum) in order to avoid the torrential rain. Struggling with fit/geometry issues with the large Turner RFX/6 Pack that I bought from a fellow monkey here on this ride, as on earlier ones, led me to decide to buck up and sell all this **** and start anew.

The bike had felt fine on its NY shakedown rides, but Long Island was essentially flat. The riding here + my slow-ass uphill speed to start with just wasn't jiving with me.

Anyway, here are the auctions in particular:

Turner RFX/6 Pack frame (L), Fox Float RC2 160 mm fork, Cane Creek 40 headset, + seats, seatpost, etc.: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=111345417666

Shimano XT Hollowtech II FC-M785 cranks in oddball 165 mm length, 38/26t rings: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=111345402304

Two Continental Trail King 2.4" x 26" UST foldable tires: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=111345396746
Did I mention that all of these auctions have 1 cent starting bids and no reserve price? :thumb: Please pass on these links to your riding buddies if they're in the market for any of this kind of stuff.

I think I'll finish this Seattle riding season on my old 29er, and then will reconsider the bike situation after getting acquainted with the Denver area trails.
