Non cycling related,
I worked in a warehouse the did some of it's own deliveries. They had a temp driver try to drive a box truck through a low tunnel and he managed to rip half the roof off the truck. They had these guys running all over the place trying to save a buck not using a common carrier. And it's dark as hell even with your lights on I could see how you could screw up.

White kit on gravel is gutsy. Houndstooth is on point. Kudos to her.

Wednesday Night Mixed Surface and McDonands.

Crispy chicken with pico and guacamole is pretty good. 750 calories for just the sandwich! VIP bicycle parking.

My first venture out on my new Gravel Bike. Still running 30c Specialized Roubaix Pro tires and switched them out for 37c Riddlers right when I got home. The Roubaix just didn't handle the soft sand sections that I encountered.
Ready to give the same route a try with the wider Riddlers. This Diverge Sport was upgraded to Ultegra FD/RD shifters and disc calipers. Running 48/32 with 11-34 cassette. Love the gearing on both the road and on gravel thus far.

Spring comes late here
Pictures from today's ride: Brookvale, Prince Edward island. Roads in pretty good shape despite rain last night.....but no leaves on the trees yet. Beautiful tree canopy over this stretch of road in the summer. Roads are mostly clay and sand, not much actual gravel.
