"Let the Force flow through you"

A feeling of not actually thinking about what I am doing as much as just letting myself do it.

I LOVE gluing tubulars. It gets pretty easy when you have a good technique (not brute strength)!!!

And it takes almost no thinking so it's a very Zen frame of mind. Very relaxing and calming.

Roadside tool find.
Trimed 4 in off the handle & .....was about 12 in long. Now 7 in long. Shorter so it doesn't tip over my cup of degreaser. Voila - A bike wash degreaser brush for cassette, chain, chainring.
Nice to have a freshy to replace my old beat up one (photo # 4)

AND then, when I put my carbon race wheels on, it feels sooooo fast after riding my "tank" wheels

Old school training & making my tires more bullet proof. When you don't care how much your wheels/bike weighs & it's JUST training!! Cut the bead off old/worn tire, stuff it in your tire to make things more durable/flat resistant.

Just sayin ......

Uh huh!!!!!!!!

Jimboys for the win

Just telling it like it is. Nothing I said was false info. But if you wanna call it sassy, that's certainly up to you to formulate that opinion. Cheers stranger (also fact).

Nope. I was ONLY suggesting a bike on a SAFE road so you wouldn't be stuck on this Federal Highway. YOU assumed that unsafe idea.

100% no. But again I only suggested riding a bike. I assumed you would be cognizant of doing so on proper roads that are suitable for a bicycle

And I don't recall suggesting riding your bike on a highway did I? I only said ride your bike (to your destination). You're the one who said highway

Just stating fact. A car is better for you. Pretty simple.

Stick to you can parked on the highway then. That's better for someone like yourself

Ride a bike. It can often be faster AND I like "moving" rather than sitting

Sofa King rad. And oldie - VC jersey

There are easier ways Chodee!! 😁😁

The things you see on your way home - part 2

A BMC Impec. Possibly my FAVORITE Dream bike. I was on BMC team & saw them finish the machine that would weave carbon threads into tube shapes. The machine looked like a Time Portal

My sis & I - Celebrate the "Birth" of our late Father!!!
Harry Aloysius Gee. Nov 16, 1925. At a place we'd go for various celebratory reasons - to Black Angus. Lucky I could go here today along w/my sister.

Happy Birthday pops. You would've been 99 years old on this day. #Birthday #Dad #Pops

He's here to be
A - Baking Supervisor ?
B - Taste tester ?

I love Pizza and (Peanut) M&Ms. Ain't no secret. Carry on ,,,,,

When making toast & you use up your jar of PB the other day & forgot to get more. But remembered you had these gems in your travel backpack from a hotel breakfast. 😁❤️

I don't have any real Strava KOMs (where there are hundreds of people doing said segments). So, I've made a few Strava segments that no one else is likely to do. No one else is likely to ride/run. And now I have a few Stava KOMs. 🤣

I just like to play with bikes. Shop rat from 1978 to 1994 and Team mechanic from 1995 to present .... But life isn't JUST about bikes and so you won't see just that (bike stuff) all the time. LIFE happens ....
