Sunrise was at 4:15am this morning here in Cullen. An hour walking around the dock yielded some good results.

They are all getting bigger. My son’s 2018 Accord is longer, wider, and heavier than my β€˜97 4Runner.

There is symmetry with the fact that I am usually in Kansas watching bike races in Europe and today I am in Europe watching bike racing in Kansas.

I usually get a bunch of extra .5mm spacers in I use a Chris King fit kit. Over the last few years I've ended up with a bunch of them. Drop me a DM if you need some mailed to you.

The Hover does a good job of following and avoiding trees and the concrete supports. I plan on taking it to the MTB trail and see how it performs.

No car? No worries!

IKEA Utrecht started a pilot in which customers can rent an electric cargo bike, four-wheeler with storage box or bike trailer to transport their purchases home, without needing a car.

If the pilot proves a succes, it will be expanded to the rest of the country.

I don't mind a team that plays "tough" and takes it when returned. IMO, Real Madrid hacked and then bitched and whined when Arsenal gave fouls back.

@guitar-ted.bsky.social Cook Bros Cranks! I remember on cold and snowy days then the bike shop was dead we used to look through get QBP catalog or other materials we had in file folder from our vendors. I fell in love with Cook cranks. It was the first unnecessary upgrade to my first MTB.

Arsenal Real Madrid Poorly Drawn Hello, Here’s some text to make this email spoiler free for the email previews in your inbox. And now that is done: WOW! What a night. I was drew as much as I could after that game, and now my hands hurt so I’ll leave it there, but I am greatly looking forward (and screaming, crying, throwing up) to next week. Below is the drawing from the game, plus a bonus drawing, and an important announcement about doing some good in the world. Declan Rice celebrates as Odegaard, MLS, and Saliba lose their minds Saliba loses his mind after the third goal **React to this drawing** πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘ - πŸ‘πŸ‘ - πŸ‘ * * * My friends at ArsenalVision Podcast are doing their year fundraising campaign for the Arsenal Foundation in Za’atari Camp. The work that the Arsenal Foundation is doing there is amazing and if you have the means to do so, giving to the fundraiser would be amazing. They are already halfway to their goal of Β£150,000. Here’s the link for more information and how to donate. Thanks! ❀️ * * * Me when that second Declan Rice goal goes in Poorly Drawn Arsenal is free, but there are other ways to support what I do. ****Share the newsletter:**** tell your friends (or your enemies) about it. ****Buy some merch:**** I put a lot of my drawings onto shirts, mugs, posters, stickers, etc. This helps keeps the lights on at PDA Headquarters and you get something in return. Neat! ****Leave a Comment:****leaving a comment just lets me that you like what I’m doing which is sometimes hard to know when you are sending out emails into the ether. ## Comments
