Daughters are home from school. Got out with them for a wee shred. (The tall one is on the Shenzhen Experiment. Sid's on the wicked ASR)
Cold ride in Tehachapi. Gusts up to 30 made it hard to stay on the trail. Cold and foggy. Perfect day for a ride.
Only thing that wasn’t perfect was that I had to replace my front chain ring with a round 32t. Was running a 30t oval.

Golden hour
Broke out the Road bike. and did a few miles till the rear went flat.
boy I feel I get cold quicker as I get older or maybe cause Im not that heavy and lost the fat to keep me warm.
either way it is cold.

Been getting in 13-15mile rides almost every day since the Dr cleared me post-surgery, just the usual suburban stuff. However, I bought myself a Christmas gift and it is a game-changer:
Broke out the 10 gallon hat and had a good Texas low-key start to 2025 with old friends

I don't know, but today seem[ed] kinda odd
No barkin' from the dog, no smog
And mama cooked the breakfast with no hog
The climbers were out
And I saw this badass adventure bus from florida
And got a little trials work worked out
Twenty something miles on a sunny 68 degrees 5th of January
It was a good day

Found a new lil bike park in our area. Was a bit soggy and overgrown but we'll grow into this on the strider https://strava.app.link/nlijNHeR4Pb

Gotta say I like the insta 360 for rapid edits of 360video vs the GoPro hero
That's what we want to build when we get our own place, and why we keep looking for ~5 acres (2ha, 20,000m sq (and only putting ~300 sq m of building on it). Be good for us, and be good for our daughter.
we have several of these in the PNW, and are much more friendly to all users. This one is def pre-molded concrete dropped into place in sections.

Only my second day riding since the new year. Been super cold in the desert so far this year.
Did a new loop I’ve been wanting to do for awhile. Bunch of hike-a-bike.
Also my first day riding my MTB clipless…. Had a few falls.

All last week we were warned about the "snowstorm" hitting the RDU area Friday evening. Instead of snow, we got maybe 1/8" of sleet:
Yawn. I'll take snow any time over sleet and ice. Anyway, got out today for 16 miles; met 2 guys from Honduras in a badass 80; and sought out the remaining whitish stuff. Sunny and 40, a very nice day to be out.
FWIW, medium-weight wool socks underneath some cheapass waterproof socks == warm feet!

It started out civilized
And I would be taking the Epic E-Faux for a spin
But I first had to ditch the 6901-ZZ main pivot bearings that came with the bike. They were already rusty. Who would put those in a MTB??? ChiComs, that's who. Anyway, nice stainless 6901-2RSs installed
Also, it was cold AF. So I went with the wooly socks and the best cycling britches ever: Wrangler ATG Convertible Trail Joggers. Link in the description below. (JK -- go find em yerself)
Saw a cool jeep on the way to the trails. Anyone seen one of these before? (I will hunt down and bite to death anyone who answers
)
