Beautiful ride today. I took Deadman out for its first ride from home today (vs stuffed in the Dodge and driven to Canada Road - adds 16 miles and some climbs). I had swapped out the tatty old Selle Italia Turbo that came with the bike when originally sold for a Fizik Aliante VSX "Bull", for inflexible guys like me. MUCH better! No longer have to "pick a side" when in the drops! I tried to take a picture of one of my favorite roads, but as I got my camera out a group of cyclists were coming up behind me and it seems like in my haste not to include them, I didn't actually take the picture. Nuts.
Now for some leftovers and a nice nap!

Basically I had Thanksgiving dinner again, for lunch. But I figure the 46 miles I rode earlier about covers it. Don't think I can get in ANOTHER 46 miles before dinner, though.

Wanted to ride outside today. For those of you unawares, I live very close to the outlet mall. Roads were not safe for cars today let alone a bike.

Why is a clean kitchen such an alien concept to so many people?

Our kitchen stays pretty pristine. When all you do is heat stuff, it's not hard to keep clean.

thats what I get paid. But each trip has time away from base. So a 4 day trip might only pay me 22 hours but it will keep me out of base 78 hours. If I am out of base 78 hours than that means I am away from home for an extra 10 hours. You have to factor in the commute. So a 4 day trip keeps me away from my physical house 88 hours and I get paid 22 hours.

More celebratory activity. Never had a porter before. The wife bought this for some reason. It is ok.
