I’ve used all kinds of solvents and even an acetylene torch to clean rotors and pads. But was shocked when the tech specialist at Hope said to just put the rotors in the dishwasher. Might give that a try.
Be careful if they have aluminium parts. The stainless is fine but the salts in most dishwasher soaps can fuck up raw and thin aluminium. Ask me how I know.

Total surprise powder day. It hadn’t snowed in so long I didn’t even bother to check the reports, 5” Saturday plus another 11” overnight. Was ridiculously fun.
if it's Winter Park I think they upped the total on remeasurement to 13" over 24 hours. some more days like this shall replenish the sad, sad base

It dried out enough today that I decided to ride. Thought I was gonna regret that decision when I turtled in my own driveway, bc I couldn’t unclip my downhill foot. To make the derpiness more derpier I didn’t just fall down onto the driveway, but fell down the embankment into the drainage ditch. Luckily no harm done.

I occasionally have to reassure people, including myself, that I actually know how to ride a bike…

Security cam footage would be gold.

Post-race kart strip rebuild today. Already had everything stripped off and the axle bearings in gas overnight, but even with Hannah cleaning the plastics and Haley cleaning the chassis, it still took over eight hours to rebuild it.

Stuck waiting for a taxi at the airport because they're probably all in the city for the superb owl fares.
