Moist, Damp, Soggy Mornin.

Heading to my office to finish some shit that I didn’t get done yesterday. Then off to try to load my big walnut logs.
Jammed a piece of metal in my finger last night. It’s still in there. So that’s cool.

Getting there. I used a zip tie in place of the pawl spring (@Gary thank you) and found a piece of plastic plumbing that assisted getting the green seal pressed back in on the freehub.

Now I just need to find that spacer I dropped....ugh

Took a colleague out for her first real MTB ride ever. Gave her my Uzzi to ride. Pretty impressive progression in 2 1/2 hrs I have to say. Must be the most talented beginner I have ever taken riding (or was it just the bike?). She had tons of fun too. Win! :headbang:

Dancin' over rocks n' roots!
Such a busy wonderful week (yes, I am suzy sunshine). HS Concert on Tuesday was amazing and MS concert on Thursday was awesome....it's snowing outside and really feels like Christmas (despite spending WAY too much time at Urgent Care and Ortho and MRI with Syd who likely has a torn meniscus and a fractured foot from a dismount on her bar routine). Much holiday baking is about to commence.

Its alive! And fitting that's its snowing out pretty good now. We had none on the ground a few hours ago.

Afraid to squeeze the Shimano brakes, as they've been sitting on the bike upside down for 8 months. Will yolo and try them on the trail...

Karting was done. Wifey came with and actually had a chance to watch her. Speed registered when she was watching adult race times vs. Haley's. Confirmed by adults around us pointing out that her times were faster than half their group.
