Are your yards and bikes ready for spring?

I'll go first. I'm pretty much ready on both counts.

Ah, motivational speaker I see.

Yard looks like it always does (the gardeners keep it that way) - Wife's and my road bikes got good cleanings on Monday (hadn't done a good cleaning on them in over a month) - we're picking up older son from college tonight for Easter break and heading out for a family camping trip to the beach next week - yup, ready for spring.

My yard is an April Fools joke every day of the year. I plan to keep it that way.

I just told my SO the other day that my goal this year was to keep my yard work under 15 minutes per week.

My landlord just paid the homeless tweaker to cut the weeds before the brush clearance deadline, so the yard is pretty close.
I ride my bikes year-round, so they always seem to need something.

Miss K, nice pic of a hottie in front of a mansion.

Bikes, to early in the season, although with temps forecast to be well above normal. will do some riding anyway. Front yard's about half way, back yard, have not really started yet, be about another month before everything is done. April can be anywhere from really nice to really ugly. Tomorrow is forecast to be 25℃, the following Saturday 5℃. Tomorrow is a ride day, the yard can wait. :D

Bikes are spotless, lubed and ready. Yard not so much. :innocent:

Been ready and riding since the start of the year. Did a yard clean up though today taking a day off riding but will be back on the saddle again tomorrow.

Common misconception. You don't have money after you buy things. You do have money after you sell them. Ask after she sells the thing. ;)

And Miss K, more bike pics please!

Do you see what looks like a blue design on the front of my shirt? Blueberry stains.

Re-landscaping this year so I have dug up the roots of some trees I took down last year (diseased), dug up about 30 day lilly root balls and have raked top dressed and reseeded the lawn. I am not finished, but have a good start. The driveway is next so lifting 60x18 ft of interloc for levelling ought to be fun.. The bikes are shiny and being ridden daily!

One can just make out the garage on the side of the house. My own house would fit neatly inside.
I'll work on getting more pix of the bike.

Thank you. Thank you very much. I think I need to change out the white handlebar tape. It is very impractical for a blueberry eater.
