Got in a solid 31.5 miles. A bit windy in some directions, but I'm alive. Solidifying tan lines on the legs too. Now to eat half the food in my apartment.

How about saying "that's fire" or "that's thirsty".

Today, I was offered a full time job over the summer building bikes. Stoked.

I hate when people over use the word rad, like in consecutive sentences.

There's a lot of "thirsty" in the current season and a lot of "fire" in the last one.

Happens to the best of us, I ordered one about a week ago after seeing a friend's and loving it. Plus that and a regular sweater is all you need to keep warm in the middle of winter here.

I'm not even sure what that means. I would just assume they were talking about watering their lawn or something.

Today I was riding on the river trail and I passed a guy on a mtb he didn't like that too much. I heard him click up gears then he rode beside me for a while then passed me trying to drop me.( He probably wasn't expecting some dude on a ss to put in that much effort)

So I'm thinking ok I will try to ride your wheel in 20mph winds. I proceed ride his wheel for 4 miles averaging 19.5mph. At the end he gave me a fist bump and told me "good stuff that's about all I got". I know 19.5 mph avg for 4 miles is slow and he probably could have dropped me if he really wanted too but it was fun any way.
