Today I touched my bieks in more than 2 months. Feels good and bad all at the same time
|
Today was really nice out so I rode the path around a local lake. 70 PSI held the tires on my unhooked rims, although I kept waiting for a blowout.
I keep searching CL for a cheap mixte to convert. I dunno why I want one, but I do. |
Today I lost my job. :|

Sorry to hear that Jay. Seems like an epidemic...

Thanks Morgan. If you can get a Ti Toupe, or a Romin that'd be great. Thanks! (Black 143mm)

A Toupe would be sweet. Black would be even more sweet. And if they had one in 143? Manly tears will be shed.
Shouldn't be more than 60 shipped. I don't know what shipping costs. |

sry to hear. |
Ah well, more time to ride I guess. They at least gave me a couple weeks of severance pay so I'm good for a few months on the bare minimums of life.
I actually may try to work at a bike shop for a bit. I've always wanted to. |

Today I woke up very surprised to not be hungover.
Crazy things happen when you stroll into your local bar like a celebrity wearing a party hat and carrying balloons. At one point I tied balloons into my dreads and stood in front of a dartboard while some dude threw darts at them. He popped every single one. One of my friends made a video but I'm not sure which one. |
found a deal on a pee-green All City Nature Boy. gonna jump on it for a winter commuter. bring on the studded tires!
my current outerwear brings me comfortably down to 29F w/o much concern. will be hitting the 'Winter Cycling' subforum for options on lowering that.... this is in no small way prompted by the fact that i realized since i started bike commuting, i fill up the car every 15 days instead of every 5.... |

that does suck but at least now you can do whatever you want!
except go back in to work. you can but probably shouldn't do that. |
Apparently my boss wants to have me do the Performance Bikes mechanic training course. Once that's done, I'm going from new guy in the shop to second in command of the shop. Moving right along...

It was blazingly unspectacular. |
Today I did the hardest 60km of mountain biking I've ever done, lots of loose rocks, steep descents, and a 5km long climb in the dark to finish it all. Crashed once, got back home all covered in dirt with a scratched left elbow, left hand hurting a bit, but feeling awesome overall. The ride was hard but it was a lot of fun and I'd do it again. I'm learning to keep up with the geared riders, feels great.
