It's STILL the weekend. Going riding. :D

I need to start riding more. Good thing I'm swimming a lot though...

Hothead, locotracks, and nuhtowel: I get my times early this week for swimming.

Today I rode a bike with a freewheel for the first time in probably 8 months

DO NOT LIKE

I don't know. Hopefully it still feels good man.

:roflmao:

knee is sore much more than usual after a ride on thursday and I've only been riding in very short spurts since. feels bad man.


tomorrow I start my daily commute in 105d heat with tons of humidity. I'm hoping a towel and a change of shirts is going to be enough, but I'm going to over-prepare for day 1 just incase I'm wrong.

I came within a hairs length of a side view mirror today; stupid drifting drivers should learn how to drive straight.

Today i went for a ride with my roadie buddy even though I didn't really feel like biking. I guess I forgot how much fun it is to ride fast since I've just been mountain biking it lately! It ended up being a fun, albeit short ride.

Now I'm on bfssfg in my lycra. :lol:

Speaking of which - I really need to find my bfssfg stickers

almost biked to mt. diablo from alameda, could see it at the "inspiration point" on the way up. maybe some other day. total of 55 miles so no count for the metric century contest thing.

inorite. and I did it again today, but felt much better. hooray for me

did a backflip off the dock. i'd never done a backflip before.

also dirtjumped in two different sets of jumps. twas fun.

I've been messing around with my wife's work supplied thinkpad that she totally forgot about since coming here and receiving it; thanks to her mbp.
Being an anemic looking no frills enterprise business laptop, it packs a quite a heavy punch; SSD, 6gb ram, i5, standalone graphics card. Even had a fingerprint scanner that the company made my wife set on premises. I'll be yanking this for my own use; one less thing to worry about now on the commute considering if it does break it'll be replaced by her company. :D

First day of class... 10mi ride to campus doesn't seem like such a big deal this semester.

I should've started with early classes to beat the heat. Doing about the same in about 90 minutes

Today is my first day of unemployment.

Friday I quit my job to go back to school full-time to finish my degree.

Today is my first day of school. I'm sitting around in the art building downtown waiting for drawing 1 to start because my last class got out early since it's the first day. After drawing I have an hour and a half break so I'm gonna go hangout with my buddy who works at the lbs that's really close and then go to my last class of the day on the actual campus a mile-ish away.

You can get unemployment when going to school full time?

First day of classes, and I don't have half of them due to my professors creating a picket line over their contracts.

I guess I worded that wrong, I'm not collecting unemployment, I just don't have a job anymore.

Ah ok, I was about to quit my job and go back to school if you could collect unemployment while doing so. Haha

Today, I have to go to class :(

Rode this on my Schwinn LeTour conversion.

It wasn't an easy decision to make with out it, I've been working 50-60+hrs/week just to have enough to live on for a while until I find something else. Huge college debt is not something I want to have hanging over my head.

did my first roto-fix.

only about 10mi out from the shop build and the rear cog was slipping. and upon inspection the lockring was about 'finger tight'.

Hmm no work today; what should I do? Oh right...
