Today's ride turned into an adventure:

1. Forgot my water bottle. Realized it about 15 minutes into the ride.
2. Windy day. Made some of the fast bends fun.
3. Cut a tire on a down hill section.

I planned to swing by my coffee bean supplier and get a bag of beans. But, a late start and that flat repair meant I couldn't get there before closing. So, I went by the bike shop and got a new tire, tube, and Co2 instead. And some water.

I am finishing my baked chicken breast and massive baked potato. Massive as in guads. I will end it with some recovery turtle pie and chase it with the World Series.

Sorry for your challenges. In other news, I am out of ground coffee. If I want any tomorrow morning, I will have to grind some beans. #HTFU

Not taken today. We did spend nearly an hour lounging on the hill in the back yard admiring the foliage. though.

It was still a nice ride. 70 degrees and sunny. Great fall views.

Houston Astros (AL) - since late 2000's vs Los Angeles Dodgers (NL) in LA since 1956 or 1957

You might want to try to listen to the flagship radio station of the Astros at 790 KBME on your AM dial. Starts at 8 PM eastern time so about 20 minutes.

Is the hill suitable for sled riding?

OMG that was pretty good ramen.

That + vanilla shake + warm sunshine is making me so sleepy I dunno if I can captain the tandem back home.

Watching the World Series on TV. Nice to see baseball after missing the playoffs because no cable.

DougRNS 10-24-17 06:20 PM

That was quick. 1 pitch 1 run for the Dodgers. Chris Taylor lead off HR in the bottom of the first.
