Today I:
Fresh Garbage
My right knee is acting up again and I hurt my right ankle. This is really discouraging, I can't do anything. I feel like I really ****ed up this time.

Sled is equivalent to 0.71 of squat (assuming perfect technique) . It's on a 45° angle.
So yeah, it's should feel easier. It's a completely different lift.

Today I picked up the bike from the LBS after finally cutting the steerer. Was an amazing ride home, if only it was more than 10 miles.
Still kicking.
Today I had a fun street ride in the rain and ordered the makings of a new rear wheel.

Today I can barely walk, after stupid amounts of climbing fixed on Saturday. I think I'm finally ready to tackle a metric century fixed, without avoiding big hills, as soon as I recover.
Still kicking.
Yesterday's ride destroyed me, still feel destroyed from it.

Scrod would have been proud.

Painfully average.

Did he run off after he knew it was your bike or did he actually try to fight back? Total knock out?
Still kicking.
Seriously, when did it happen?

yeah, must have pried or shimmed my U lock. Got back and my locks were just sitting there. Filed police report. Hopped on bus to go home. Seen Kilo in park. *stop requested* *fisticuffs*
This was at like 530. Had to ride to the track by 6. Pain train, 84GI, brakeless, through downtown, rush hour. Living on the edge.
Resolved the report yesterday.
It was a long ass day.
