End of the ride went by Viking Liquor. I'm out of beer, so it seemed logical. Bought 24oz PBR, High Life, and Dos Equis - one per jersey pocket. Rode home.

just one of the many prices to pay, you also get to live in deer tick ground zero...
...and our squirrels are smarter in DC, I swear to god that yesterday, down my block, I watched one neatly eating discarded food in aluminum foil, unwrapping as it went, not biting into the aluminum foil at all. I stopped to watch, and it looked back at me, as if to say "wut, you gotta problem?"...

Hopefully many of them and their carriers, mice & deer, have been killed off during this unusually harsh winter.

Oh my, that must have been terrifying being so far from the ground.

We have a bunch of apple trees. I think we'll have apples this year. I do no pruning or apple tree care.

Another casualty of the bike industry. Joe's Bike Shop. I went in to pick up the Redline and Joe was closing the doors the next day. I got free dice valve caps.

I figured you did. He came in 2nd at the Frostbite TT this morning. Fourth to start, picked off a couple 5s. Missed 1st by four seconds.
Not bad for his first TT. I just talked to him. He was really excited. It's fun. I told him he probably could have made up that time with a wheel cover.

I learned to cross country ski working at a ski center. We never skied with poles, carrying axes and machetes instead, for trail clearing. We would ski and hack trail, which was great until my buddy cut the tail of one of his skis.

1st race day of the year complete and the crash monkey is off my back. Did two, team mate won both, I lead him out in the first one and died in the second.
Good way to end a two week training block and glad to be racing again.

I'm glad the new bike is what you hoped.
