Today I commuted on my MTB for a change and proceeded to ride it into the ground. Jump all the curbs, avoid all paved surfaces!

Today I got bored and tried to go as fast as I could on my trainer.
Cycling computer said I hit 46.4 and I'm running 45/16 so my cadence was 210.
I dont trust it though
haha

Today I'm beginning than refinishing process on this:
Nice little alley find. We need a new entertainment center, so that's what this will be. Solid wood, no particle board or anything here. It's a little beat up, and the doors are trashed, but I'll make it beautiful.

I love doing that every once in awhile, so fun. I did that a couple days last week after getting a flat on the rear of my usual fg commuter that I couldn't patch, and was out of the correct size tubes for it.

Today I discovered that not only did I cut down my front tire, I also cut down the rear tire on the 930...

today i checked out the chrome ivan and freight baggage medium rolltop, then ate the best spinach artichoke hipster artisan grilled cheese ive ever had.
now im "learning" in digital imaging class, made this:
tl;dr: chrome ivan is nice but not fat enough. medium freight baggage is perfect (mesesenger large wouldve been insanely huge, thank you therealfaux for putting doubt in my mind).

I got a pinch flat. But, I did get to use my pdw shiny object c02 inflator that I got from scrod for the first time. 2 16g cartridges later and it is honestly by far the easiest inflator I've ever used, hands down money well spent.
The regulator knob worked better than expected. No leaks, juggling or fondling around whatsoever. It took no effort whatsoever start to end. I can easily say it puts genuine innovation's mini inflator to flat-out shame.

Today I learned how to center single-pivot calipers, and how to seat a stubborn bead after the tire is mounted. I hope Sheldon's proud of me.

Overfill the tube. I pumped them up to 160psi, heard a little "pop", and the low spot disappeared. Deflate and reinflate back to your desired pressure, et voila.

If it was going to, it would have. It's not like I'm riding it at 160.
