a wee bit light lately... sorry about that

for better or worse i've been f'n insanely busy...  pre-occupied and all that...

the storm photo has been lingering as a draft for a while.

soon maybe things will settle back down.

ebb and flow..

definitely thinking about cyclocross.

TT last week was canceled. Despite all the prep for it (food, bike, legs...) so I dashed off a hill ride Friday morning, then woke up stupid early and did the Dawn Patrol which I will now call DP because the sexual innuendo is just too strong to pass up. Got some solid leg climbing stuff.  Faster? Meh who knows.  The TT has been good despite the billion year old road bike servicing as the machine of speed.

Lots of driving coming up this week. Sadly have to miss the ENGVT crit in Concord.  There is nothing to be done. No plans to change or make it different than it is.  So anyway all y'all should be there. Go race. Have fun.

and man CX in White Park is really not that far away.

CX time.

also GeWilli did something new. he changed a chain only. was going to do it earlier this year but the white blue went from 50% to 100% in the month of February (smart people paying attention will recall that was a heavy wood hauling time towing the loaded trailer most every day). So yeah oops.  Black Blue finially dropped down into the .75 wear. BUT it is making a horrendous snap crackle pop under load.  bearings were shot. replaced them. pedal had play, adjusted it. Checked chainring bolts, all were tight unless something slipped.  Kind of stumped. But not riding it likely at all this week so i'll deal with it next. maybe.

Service Course GeWilli is open for limited business.  You got a bike that needs something lemme know. Labor rates are reasonable...  limited schedule and local work mostly only, y'all know how to get a hold of me. that said i have a few 'clients' that get priority and a schedule right now that pretty much has no time to write. but. i'm mentally in a decent place, looking forward to cx, the normal worries are there but i'm doing all i can do and nothing more... hoping it is enough. So yeah there is enough incentive built in and i enjoy it enough that i think i could work on stuff for people, not that there is likely any demand but hell why not throw it out there.

dinner cooking time...

late... damnit...  time shift and packed schedule....  it is what it is...

there is only one of me.

thank goodness
