Payback?

   Last week Nariz (Bryan) was not having a good day when we rode together and I was having an exceptional sort of day. My feeling of how great a day it was was offset by Nariz's tunnel vision and focus on the road surface 3 ft in front of his wheel. I'm pretty sure that if you look at his calendar there is a red circle around today's date. He spent countless hours honing his fitness, plotting how he was going to come and destroy me today. Well, nice job. It worked. Thanks for that.
   It's February this next week. Almost time for silly season. The Smelt Feed in North Freedom on the 25th, Chili in Leland on the next week, chili in Blackhawk somewhere in there and I heard a rumor of a Smelt Feed in Sauk soon too. I should be racing at D+'s weight this year.

Watch that step!

The most treacherous part of the weekend turned out to be the basement steps. First time I've fallen in a while and I don't like it much. The cold air was as good as any ice pack on Sunday, and by the end of the ride my jacket was pretty much a sheet of ice anyway. It helped me keep from thinking about how much my arm hurt from falling down the steps, I suppose.
     Been spending most nights working on the car lately. I ripped all the wiring out and started over again. It looks much nicer, at least to me. It's almost February already! Hopefully be driving it soon.

OK then

They, who in this case are Google, decided to make changes to blogger so I wasn't able to post using internet explorer 7 anymore. I finally tried it on Lisa's machine and it apparently works. Thankfully this will bring me off the bottom of the blog roll for little while.
   Went to the bike swap yesterday to sell and not buy anything. Accomplished both objectives. The first thing that I sold was a used 9 spd cassette. The most interesting item I sold was my number 69 bib number from Chequamegon 2 years ago!!!! Enjoy that, funny guy that bought it.
