no rain today yay. it dumped yesterday. 2" of rain in the valleys and over 5" of rainfall in the local mountains. I drove up Niles canyon yesterday afternoon and the water in Alameda creek was just 4 feet below the roadway and filled the canyon width instead of its normal 15 feet below and ten feet wide. Suppose to start raining again tonight and continue through to Sunday. I can only imagine how much snow is falling in the Sierras.

Up at fyvayem to take the mum to the aeropuerto. 
Heading up to Copper later this morning for a few runs, then on to Aspen for a few days of chic-schussing.

I had two meetings yesterday that the organizer didn't show up for because they are out of office. RUDE.
Hey I’m here.
thinking about scooping up a new Tt frame for better fit and because I’m an idiot. Would have to head to Hartford to get it.

Hey same here. 9000 employees.Drowning in tax/legal shit related to paying staff.
Not on Southwest I hope, or you're taking Mum with you to Copper.Up at fyvayem to take the mum to the aeropuerto.
I'm enjoying the week off, without having to book any time off.
Speaking of which, I need to book my holidays for the summer. There are four of us going on a mini tour in Alberta and BC - should be a good trip. No real plans yet, but we'll ride at buddies home spot outside Calgary and then in the Golden and Revelstoke area.

You're not wrong.
microwave died suddenly.
Amazing how quickly ones psyche can go from okay to "is it even worth it".
Why does work have to be so worky.

Have batted around the idea that going for a ride will rapid-up covid recovery. Which is what would work when feeling squirrelly during covid v.1.0 Never have tested +, ever. Temps are 45° colder though, pneumonia would suck eggs I guess.
Anyone who got their shots do so while being infected? Am losing my patience with long cotton swabs up my nose.

I think trying to get on the bike too soon extended my COVID. I had a mild case but poor post workout recovery afterwards. Took me about 5 weeks to feel 100% again
I've got no idea how I'm going to recover from this. I feel dirty now.
I think you're supposed to wait 90 days post infection to get boosted. If let your body heal up with covid before pushing it with exercise again.
got to provide the authentic experience as if in office!
Dr is already 10 min late for my damn telehealth call.
I'd suggest exercising, but at low intensity. Like 100-110 bpm intensity. Give those mitochondria a little kick into action.
/me is working in house today, 7-4, then moonlighting "2 hours" tonight. Did "6 hours" last night, the quotes because this time-worked way of logging things is 100% bullshit. Game the system I shall.
Already boned up on what's recommended when getting another booster, more curious about immediate side effects. Felt piss poor after the 1st vax, not so much getting a booster a year ago.
@Toshi - that's the fun I want to have. No hill repeats, sustained efforts. Just taking my inner-self for a spin
Should probably shower before anything though. Last one was Saturday.,
Nice!
Any particular area planned yet?
Norm, myself and two others are going to visit old man Mark from July 22nd to August 3rd.
If it works out y’all were on the list. My ultimate plan was to visit folks in St. George Utah, head over to Downieville, CA to visit some friends, then to Santa Cruz to see some friends, then up to BC and across Canada. Plan is still in its infancy.. when does riding season get decent for you in the spring?
Oh lordy, I have sinned. According to the dork meter, I hit my annual mileage goal today, so that's nice.
I watched Caddy Shack again the other day. I did not realize that Bill Murray was the source of that quote. The scene in which he says it is even funnier if you keep in mind that he is 99% ad-libbing and the rest of the cast has no idea what he’s gonna say next…at least that is what amazon prime video notes tell me…
That's a big trip, that'll be a hoot.
Where we are in Ontario the riding is usually good by end of April in majority of the areas that we hit frequently. Further north is hit and miss, depending on how wet it is.
I watched a show on the making of the movie several years ago. IIRC a large portion of the movie was ad-libbed.
Did 3 repeats today
4,787ft climbed today, would have been over 5k but I needed a piss so headed for home
4,377ft to go.
Afternoon. Home from our Christmas trip to the city. In summary: It was cold, good mexican @ dos caminos, Hotel Edison has a cool vibe and queen beds to go with their large for NYC rooms, Beetlejuice the musical was funny, but I still wish I had seen The Music Man and the Piano Lesson so I will need to return, the tree was just as pretty when I drove by it's living self at home, crowds suck and I still don't like shopping, but my kids do!
Time for us to pack up the car and head to grandmas for 2nd christmas.
