Finished a 2nd #minisplit #heatpump install to heat the living room / kitchen. 18k BTU. Temperature outside has been ~20°F and started snow as I was putting the finishing touches on it. I did mess up a connection by over torquing it and has to #flare it to hold a #vacuum.

Update 2: Unit is in and kicking out way more heat than I anticipated. I set thermostat to 88F (max) and the outlet temp is pushing 104F.

Bike route for Mount Greylock showing 2,805 feet of elevation in 9 miles.
2,805 feet of elevation in 9 miles, up 23% grade looks like a challenge for sure. I don't think I've ever seen a mountain I didn't want to climb to see the view from the top.

Rode #HoosierNationalForest ystrd. #Trailride 22 to 16. Definitely #underbiking on my #laufseigla, but not too bad. 50mm tires were small for wet leaves. Upland brewing pitstop

It's a leaf spring with ~30mm of travel. Great for rough roads / tow paths.

Day 2 #bikepacking started out with some amazing loud wildlife (birds?) I couldn't identify at about 04:30 in the morning. Then a ride to a Danish baker (a must) and some stops along the #LakeMichigan coast.

A Lauf Seigla bicycle leaning against "The Fonz" statue in Milwaukee Wisconsin. "The Fonz" is a character from the television show "Happy Days" and is played by Henry Winkler
Milwaukee Wisconsin from a distance while the sun is setting on the bike path south of the city.
More from Day 1 of #bikepacking from the #CreamCity to #WindyCity. Manditory stop at #TheFonz then to an amazing #brewery #exploriumbrewpub to refuel. Riding the lake front at sunset was beautiful. Had nice #gravelbiking in the dark south of city
