"We are chipping away on your home - Brooke [assistant to the designer lady] will be out there on Tuesday with some of the subs to get pricing."Not super concerned about dust upstairs as it's all getting revamped. In theory. Should the designer ever give me designs and a crew and all that good stuff.
I think we should have regular DH Friday's with @Nickkinda getting the urge to see if anyone in the bookface groups would trade me my DH bike for an equivalent bicycle blue book value non-DH acoustic FS mountain bike
after breaking my hand last year I think most (all?) of my DH time will be easy days with Mariko, who will be very slow. and going on an occasional acoustic mountain bike ride might be fun. actually, scratch that, but it would let me ride legally everywhere.
thoughts from the peanut gallery? @6thElement
Might end up with Marker Free 7s on both the 140 cm, 90 mm under foot Rustler Teams (for Yuna in probably two years) or the 152 cm, 98 mm underfoot Black Pearl 98s.
Mariko tried the Black Pearls today and she skied great with them. Moving pictures on usual social media outlets.

What did not work well at all were the 2018 Marker Squire 11s. At 68 lb she couldn’t step into them at all. Even worse than the Tyrolia Attacks. She needs a half-kid binding still even though she is long.
12/14/15/18? No Cast?@Toshi - you'll be glad to know I'm getting a pair of those rasta Pivots mounted on my new skis.
to be fair, I haven't paid him up front for said nonexistent plans, either. payment upon receipt.you're never getting those plans.
get any/all contractors to adhere to a written schedule. All designs, all procurement, all labor, all subs. Once payments start, have them face damages for unexcused delays. If they don't agree, you probably don't want to use them.
12, no Cast, whatever the fuck that is.12/14/15/18? No Cast?
Turns Pivot 15/18 into touring bindings.

Tech Freedom. Alpine Performance. We’ve created the world’s first pin-tech touring system with the full reliability, safety and bomber performance of an alpine binding. CAST’s patented and fully integrated quick-release mechanism allows you go uphill on super-light pin-tech touring toes, and...casttouring.com
For what I was after it was perfect. Weight wasn’t a concern, I like my Pivots and they are 100% Pivots (ok stack height is changed a few mm, sue me) on the way down.
Haven't you got one of your offspring trained to ride the e-cargo bike yet so they can bungee you to the back for the ride home?maybe.

just under 3 miles from my house to the Central Park station. would be a trivial trip with bike or OneWheel assist, but neither shall be in the cards on post-op day 0 coming home.
the physics of 201 lb me being bungeed to the cargo bike with 68 lb Mariko at the helm would result in her dropping the bike immediately and squashing her legHaven't you got one of your offspring trained to ride the e-cargo bike yet so they can bungee you to the back for the ride home?
You're down to 201? Good job... Tubby.the physics of 201 lb me being bungeed to the cargo bike with 68 lb Mariko at the helm would result in her dropping the bike immediately and squashing her leg

yup, slowly de-fatteningYou're down to 201? Good job... Tubby.
You should celebrate with a tray of kare panyup, slowly de-fattening
I look positively svelte, really
Got full Ikons for all of us. Hopefully next winter will be the Winter of George.Passes acquired for next season:
Loveland midweek for me
Ikon for me + wife
WP for Baby Aya (last year of glorious $30 pass!)
Shall get WP passes for the elder two kids through the comp center when I sign them up for Devo in the fall.
I believe the solution is more pushups.the physics of 201 lb me being bungeed to the cargo bike with 68 lb Mariko at the helm would result in her dropping the bike immediately and squashing her leg
