Motivation levels reaching peak WGAF. Left over pizza and coffee for breakfast. Gonna pedal to work.
Legs feel tired from yesterday. WC DH on the screen and coffee, then an easy spin for the legs. Grilling tonight.
Have a good day, y'all.

Morning Monkies! I slept pretty well last night and am now having a breakfast of 1 banana, 1 pint of strawberries, 8 Oz of yogurt and a 1/2 cup of raw oatmeal. My legs feel better than expected after yesterday's ride so I am planning on a 15 mile road ride at a relaxed pace.
dumped rain last night. cloudy and thunderstorms this afternoon. was hoping to get a in ride but not looking good. coffee now...t-minus 15 until ft. bill streams...
Overcast morning. Mid 50's out. Only had one rider bucked off a horse yesterday. Bring on the coffee.
10 hours hanging folks from trees. Beach weather was lovely.
Cops showed up at just the right time. A female friend I hadn't seen in years was grinning and giggling as she was pulled up by another girl in a pony-girl fetish outfit. The cops took a few pics and then moved on to the next call.
I spent all day tying knots and pulling ropes in the sun. I slept hard last night. It was good.

Quiet in the hangar. Single speed overhaul time. Probably needed it 3000 miles ago. Can't find freehub tool. 
Thousands of baby spiders drifting though the air on silk sails. Little bastards are landing everywhere, brushed at least twenty of the off of me in the last ten minutes

Gonna be a hot one. Was going to ride today. Not deterred by the heat but by lane closures preventing easy travel to all points north or east.
not a good one. i tried snagging one with the cops in it, but i was too far away with my phone cam.
Today's road ride much success, pushing 80 degrees and very little wind. I'm heading out for a short trail run after lunch.
Opted for a short local ride because of the weather. Turned out to be a good decision, the sun came out just as I hit the trails and then at the furthest spot in the forest the thunder started. Didn't really rain and the storm was pretty far, but I've been caught out in bad storms before and would rather not do that again.
Of note from today's ride, about 100 feet down the first trail I rode straight through a swarm of dragonflys. I might have screamed a little.
Today's trail spot was also the same spot that I got clotheslined in the neck on Thursday by the rope. I went and checked out that spot again and yep, ropes are still hanging where I left them cut. Sure looks like the conservation officers went and took a hard look at the spot. And now that I went during the day, I found a third rope, which thankfully was already cut.
On a more serious note, I haven't pooped since Friday. I'm a little concerned.

That blows. I'm sure you have every possible tool at work besides that ONE, too.Quiet in the hangar. Single speed overhaul time. Probably needed it 3000 miles ago. Can't find freehub tool.
Did you put up a crittercam?Today's trail spot was also the same spot that I got clotheslined in the neck on Thursday by the rope.

I haven't pooped since about 10 AM myself. I am unconcerned.
Tomorrow I have to read and approve 45 annual reviews, I certainly hope I don't have to rate anyone "Inconsistent Pooper".
Hey. Focking rain. Today was BikeMS. I signed up for the 100 mile ride, but the century ride was cancelled due to thunderstorm warnings. So, I did the 50 mile route, then headed back out and did the 25 mile route. Poured like a motherfucker the first 50 miles, then warmed up and didn't rain for the last 25 miles. My poor tri bike is filthy. 
Fancy schmancy cupcakes and bbq at the finish line, so I scarfed a bunch of that down, then got home and ran 5 miles in a downpour. I've had a good day. Now I am tired and sleepy.

@jstuhlman I almost forgot man, double unicorn sighting today on the way back from the trails! First up was an E63 AMG wagon and then a few minutes later was a CTS-V wagon.
Almost had a cargasm!

20 miles at ~10000ft either side of Kenosha Pass, out to the wilderness on the east then to the west. First time I've come back down the rooty goodness on the west-side of 285, damn that was fun.
Short ride number 2 also success but the strava in me was disappoint. I had the exact same time on new XTC as I did on the old XTC even though the new bike has a fork with usable travel, super duper flats and new shorter stem... 
it felt faster and smoother though.
it felt faster and smoother though.Still must spread rep.
Got back to the car after two hours in the woods just as the rain started. Unlike yesterday, I didn't get drenched and have to dry out my gear.

Thats a pretty nice bathtub too!I saw one of these while walking the dog. Much more exciting IMO.
Folks use those for planters 'round here. They even have chicken coups in the little gaps between the sidewalk and road.
Wonder if there's a microwave or fire extinguisher in it.
