That system that hit the midwest is coming here and dumping a ton of rain on us the next 2 days. Then temps will plummet.
I am hoping there will be enough time for roads to dry before the temps go below freezing. If not, there will be more weekend basement fake miles in my future.

Por casualidad, the increments are getting bigger by the day, and I expect to ride a bike within the coming week. The key will be getting it past the naysayers who insist it's too soon. There's an itch building, that will need scratching sooner than later. The first one or two will likely be uptown for supplies. Not much to go wrong there.

Fun fact - I grew up two counties away in Adams County, but I had relatives in Hershey, whom we visited frequently when I was little - it was my Dad's sister's family, and Dad was really close to his siblings. BUT I never smelled chocolate there or visited the Hershey Chocolate Factory.

When we moved there in the late 90's, they had eliminated the factory tour and replaced it with a Disney-esque faux factory *** giftshop travesty called "Hershey's Chocolate World."
edit: fun fact, the stupid censor won't let me use the 3 letter word, starting with c and ending with m, that means "combined with" because it's stupid.

When I was a kid in the 1970's we went to Hershey and back then you could actually get a tour of the chocolate factory.

Think I figured out the chain skip-
1 - there was about 15mm between top of pulley and bottom of cog on the biggest cog, fixed that
2- high limit was a little inside the smallest cog
3- took off and reinstalled cassette, nothing wiggled, but figured why not.
it all sounds better, I’ll know how it took when I ride outside this weekend (hopefully)

I was looking though an email from some cycling apparel manufacturer or another and briefly got excited about sale on some winter boots before coming to my senses and getting real with myself. I haven't been out on the ice yet this year and probably won't unless my trainer ***** the bed.
