Dad and I were coming home one day, and the town had been surreptitiously working on the road, leaving a substantial bump which they didn't mark. *WHAM!!!!*, and then I watched as the right front hubcap passed us, and went off to go lie down in the bank parking lot. Of course, Dad sent me to fetch it later.

Doing a sporting clay tourney tomorrow, so went to get some shells a few minutes ago. Stuff is really in short supply. Was limited to two boxes of 25, and they only had Monarch brand (dirty stuff - a good analogy is public restroom toilet paper). And, only about 10 boxes on the shelf. Had no idea.

I was going to sneak out today, started work super early to allow for a long lunch, but decided to bag off work early and finish up some yard work. I’m off tomorrow so I should have time for a decent morning ride

Just did a quick look, don’t see anything hitting the frame. This doesn’t look good. From the previous owner but I don’t know how that could happen.
