We have been getting daily rain, which is unusual, despite it being rainy season. Tixkokob is located between a band of rain to the West and another to the East. Our rain most;y comes from the North.

I spent the afternoon studying up on workbench options. Specifically heavy ones that can stand hand tool use. I will admit to being gun-shy in regards to the table saw, especially with one finger that can't move itself out of the way. No issues with the planer or jointer however. Once the bench is built, I think I can move the tablesaw on its way. Possibly sooner. If I were to buy pre-cut lumber, I wouldn't need it. A fredly thing to do by woodworking standards. And here comes today's rain.

Speaking of being a father, my son got me a Star Wars Lego set for Father's Day. My son happens to be obsessed with both Star Wars and Legos. This is the second time that he's gotten a Lego set as a gift for me. He's so thoughtful. :lol:
which set? |

Eff me. I may be without a bike until Wednesday afternoon. |
It's waxing night. I need to remember to loosen it up and re-install before I go to bed, or it'll throw a wrench in that whole gettin'-out-for-a-ride-first-thing-in-the-morning thing.

Oh, apparently I put so much torque through my right foot that I lost my front cleat bolt and possibly bent the derailleur hanger; regardless, it's skipping now.

You missed the thunderstorms? It just started pouring here. While carrying the bike to back yard so I can hose down the dirt and grime from this morning’s ride, I’ve lightly hit the right chain stay on the fence and took a piece of clear coat off (maybe a 2mm by 2mm piece on the corner, rectangular-ish profile) :notamused: Not only am I too fat for this sport, but am also too stoopid :bang: |

Everyone likes a cat pic, right? This is a neighbor cat, but I couldn't resist the shot out the kitchen window.

:twitchy: Yes, this exact feeling here is making me realize I could use another roadie (or all-road). But moving has fired up my anxiety-fueled frugality, and I'd like to see how long I can hold out once this bike is repaired. Not to mention, are there even bikes to buy now? |

I have a Facebook question. A few days ago got an email notification that someone wants to be my friend. I don't know the person and haven't bothered to go to FB and look at it.
In the last few days I've gotten three or so more notifications about this. Is that FB hounding me? Or is the person resubmitting the request? This isn't the first time this has happened. |

I don't want to ride the P2 on city streets in dawn light, and the S1 is in the shop and unrideable (no brakes) and in tri configuration anyway.

Why do you think the hanger is bent? Maybe it just needs to be adjusted.

Regardless as to whether it's a suggestion or a request, I'd put money on FB being the hound. They get obnoxious when you haven't logged in for a while.
