1.25 hours of Bush trimming activity achieved eating and coffee consumption in progress. Bill paying and bank reconciliation about to commence. I may take a shower first as I'm pretty rank right now.
Still no lab results from last Friday. I guess they need more than a week to accomplish this. I'm now 5 pounds under normal riding weight but that's because my legs are puny sticks. Wasting away. Poco a poco for seeds.

Hot again here so some friends drove up the coast a bit to ride but I didn't feel like spending 3+ hours in a car. Also none of the club rides sounded fun so I rode from home by myself. Started before 7:00 because I was up anyway and was done before it hit 100 degrees. Did a loop that was an old stand-by for years. Ride with gps says 48 miles and 3660 feet. Drank 6 large bottles and felt pretty good.
On the last climb I stopped in the shade and sat on the guard rail and a guy on roller blades came by doing 30-35 mph. It drops 600+ feet in 2.6 miles, if you're going that way. He had full leathers with pads and a full face helmet and a follow car. After I got back on the climb they passed me in the car and then he flew by on the blades again. By the time I got to the top they were just getting there for another descent. A few years ago a kid I worked with was skateboarding there and hit a small rock and fell off. He was not wearing any gear and came to work with some impressive road rash.

I've been wondering about this steady overcast we've had, for about a week now. Turns out it's a dust cloud from the Sahara.
