a bit early

Hit the goal for the month early...  comparing one of the worst years on the bike with this year...  unfortunately I have no good records before getting smaht phone in '13, can only guess...  but given results and Verge points in 2013 I'd say it was a peak performance year.

The data in images...  lets see how the next 6 months shape up:

Mostly obviously all in large part to a monster month of May. June's still not doing too badly though. However going based on the Strava M-S week last week was the lowest mileage total since April. Which I suppose isn't a bad thing.

Smackdown tomorrow...  and still a continuous streak of not missing a day on the bike. Although both May and June have a wee little barely a ride in on one day. But that's okay, can't do a century everyday (although actually given enough food, I probably could do that pretty easily at this point).

NBX is moving the shop from 4th up to Hope street with window space on the busiest street in the area and also at a stop light so much much more visibility. Moving day is Thursday. Gonna be an adjustment, but hopefully just more bikes for me to build, assuming I can squeeze more hours out of the day.

The ride with Deano was great. Much needed discussion and idea stimulation, back and forth a bit but it was good, despite the craziness in the previous 12 hrs. Super motivated to get going on this project, I think the goal is to give it a go at producing a book level set of images of the stuff my dad collected in Colorado. The story and sheer number of images lend themselves to a book more more readily than any other collection. Now to see if I can produce the content and then shop it around and see about getting someone to publish it, I can't come up with my own capital to do it, and I don't/wouldn't feel right doing the whole crowd source funding thing to publish it, but maybe that's last resort. But it is going to take a lot of time to generate the content. But ideas about how to document both the actual samples and help interpret the scale of everything along with the images, and the stories and locations, and to have something physical to share seems appropriate for this...

Now to clear off the rest of the mountain of work in between here and there.

And to make the TT happen.

And keep the Smackdown going.

And everything else...
