Today I skinned 3 of my knuckles when my damn hozan spanner slipped.

Today I worked. No surprise there. By the time I'm done with work tomorrow I will have done close to 70 hours in five days. Good times. Oh, and I got a line on Felt TK2&3's at cost. Awesome.

(Yesterday) I sat for my first session for my new tattoo. Just a couple hours of work, outline only so far.

Longest I've done on a roadie was like 72mi? Been a while.

yeah ime any given mileage on a fg (esp. if it has teh track geo) is alot harsher than w a roadie.

I can't really ride my flite 100 for more than 2 hrs without getting achy.

Mickey's grenades? Those little things are so dangerous.

I've been lucky enough to avoid that so far, just by being super careful from all the horror stories about it here:lol:

Fort Mason

I've always wanted to go, but I wasn't going to pony up $20 and wait hours in line. I went this year though because my friend's friend who went earlier in the day gave us their wristbands. Saved us $20 a piece and the wait in line :D
