Yep.
They're handy for angles at which you can't use the 6" foam roller, or the quad-******. You can also put one point on the floor and use your leg and arms to drive the other point into your gastroc. Quite painfully and strictly hypothetically. Mentioning for a friend. Ok I just did that.

too bad you didn't stay longer, you may have been positively impacted during your formative years.

We are in the medium green zone. There are a lot of appliances on the roof, not bolted down or otherwise at risk. AC compressor, Water tank, propane tank, solar water heater, solar panels are bolted down but I don't know about their wind speed limits.Internet receiver tower.

Yeah, the rolling pin's got some uses, but if I had to live without one of the two, I would happily jettison it. The 6" roller? Nope, never gonna give it up.

Oh it started two weeks ago when dunken decided to drop pumpkin slice lattes on us. Where they found pumpkins who were mature enough to go into a latte is the question.

I thought that it was from some mud/grit that I'd stepped in last weekend when I came a cross some construction, but cleaning out the cleats and injecting new grease in to the pedals didn't get rid of it. It's definitely pedal/crank, though - it's only happening on the left pedal down-stroke. It almost sounds like when the end of the shift cable is hitting the crank arm, but it's not that.

I've got a click, now.

And the squeak turned into a CLICK that’s how I solved it.
