Picked up a set of brand new Ultegra carbon pedals for less than the price of 105. Now deciding if I want to use these, or sell them...

Today(yesterday) I rode my first century to the Shiner Brewery. 48x16. All in all it was fairly easy until the last 20 miles. Only noticed one other rider on SS/FG. Fuji proved to be very comfortable throughout the whole ride. Post ride pic!

today i did some recovery riding for an hr and a half testing out the time mtb pedals and giro shoes i won on ebay
got clicking into the pedals figured out, and aparently ive been riding with road shoes a size too big for the last 3 years
road some offroad, flatted in the last 6ft of trail
need more offroad-centric bikes.
ps: these things are the ****ing devil:

Today I had a low speed crash because I was being inattentive. I always ride with gloves, forgot them this time, and of course skinned my hand pretty good. Not my best day.

Rode a tough trail today with a good amount of hike-a-bike sections. Made for some sweet descending though.
Sweet Gum seed pods. You can chew on the sap from the trunk as a natural gum. I keep meaning to try that and forgetting.
@franswa: I'm working in town but will be living in the woods nearby.

Got a 96 tracker I'm picking up Wednesday.
Now I'm looking for a 2.0L gti engine to put in it.

Recovering from a century ride in Chico yesterday -- Drinking that water! Had my best time today date, just under 6 hours which I'm happy with -- Lots of room for improvement
