I decided to skip riding today to give the shoulder more time to heal. I hope to try a short ride tomorrow.
I may go helmet shopping later today. Although I am usually thrifty, I will likely splurge and get a BIG $ helmet. Most likely the Prevail II MIPS, assuming fit is same as the Prevail it’s replacing.

Weekly 100km in the bag - the streak continues. More importantly, this gives me another 3000 calories to play with for the party this afternoon.

So I came home and mowed the front. Then went to fix stupid RD cable. I pulled a new cable off the pegboard and after some hassle, I managed to get broken cable out and new cable threaded. I run cable down towards RD and suddenly run out of cable. WTF?
I am such an idiot. I grabbed a FD cable. Sad!

You could have tied off th cable for a slightly easier gear, but you are to hard to do such things.
