It happened again.
Fun Fact: I weigh nearly what this guy does, and stand a lot when I climb. There's probably other similarities.

I aerated a portion of the northwest lawn today. I was surprised by how hard-packed the clay was in spots. I already wore a lot of paint off the tubing.

I noted that one Doug did not answer a meaningful question in post #523, which was bad.

There was nothing I couldn’t do on my old steel bikes except tapping threads and straightening frames. On this plastic thing, I’m a little spooked by BB installation and it’s probably not worth buying the drift sets for the various bearings, but otherwise I see no issues. I’d probably also take it in to have the derailleur hanger aligned.

Had a light meeting day and planned on a late morning ride. Threw my back out and now I’m laying on the floor with a heating pad. Most likely no ride today
