Speaking of Tyre Humidors, I have one too and I just checked and I am down to 3 Conti GP4000s, two of which will go on the new wheels for the upgraded Habanero.
So I will be looking at buying some GP5000s in the next several months. A few years ago PBK was the "it" place to get good prices reliably. What's the latest thought?

In my latest tire purchase, Lorgun was the cheapest I could find for Pirelli tubeless, even with shipping cost factored in. Delivery time was quicker than I expected, too.

Dang, I've been using a mixer with only one of the beaters in to stir up my peanut butter, but today I could smell the mixer motor starting to burn up . Guess I need to start chucking a beater into a drill from here on out.

I do that with my beater, too, but it seems to have a pretty robust motor - it's probably 15 years old now, with nary a complaint. If you do use your drill, be sure to have a good grip on the jar... I've heard that it could get messy... you know - from a friend.

Oh yes, I've enjoyed the scenario wherein the jar gets away from me before.

I've used this mixer for years for this task, I think I might have poured off too much oil this time, so it was pretty thick. It always seems to runny if I leave all the oil in, so I pour a little bit out before mixing.

Venus has been beating me up with her cone of shame, I had to tape the edges to minimize damage. She had surgery on her knee to repair a ruptured tendon. The hardest part is containing all the energy she wants to expend so the knee can heal. No more reckless running around for 8 weeks. She's tethered and she hates it.

My ex-GF is now even stronger than I am on the flats. I need to ride more. It was fun when we did some tours together because having her two a trailer in the hills/mountains was the only way I could keeper he behind/close to me. Her being 5' tall and 105 lbs. helps with the climbing.

Time for a new bag. What do you think of the color combo? I get things dirty easily so I avoid bright colors.

Real men just use a knife. Then put it in the fridge so it doesn't separate again. And you never pour off the oil, unless you want peanut cement.
