Up early, fire going. Rice and fried eggs for breakfast, time to bundle up and ride. Currently 34°F. Need another espresso before I'm out the door.

A dozen posts, one bot. 47 out.
Yeah, I don't think I'd recommend it right now.

We can normally see 25 miles to the continental divide out our windows. Visibility this morning is 100 yards, can't tell if it's smoke or cloud yet, hopefully the latter.
Here. Family photos this am. More study this am.
Need to paint the drawer box and face for Haley's desk today. The legs stick out a bit past the desk surface, since they are mounted at an angle (lesson learned). There's a chance I could have to pull the off and re-mount them farther towards the center of they stick out too far and the gap to the wall is too great.

Now there's daylight, it's low cloud giving us 100 yards visibility. Hopefully it burns off. Thinking Floyd this afternoon if it does, was going to ride there yesterday but stayed local instead. @Nick @Full Trucker ride plans for today?
Thinking about riding later, but have made no plans as of right now. The mid-thirty degree temps and spittling/freezing rain are keeping us inside for now as well. I'll ping you later though, I think the financée and I would definitely like to get out. Floyd yesterday was... interesting. super high sustained winds with even higher gusts kept this kid to only doing one lap.
Good Morning!!!
Hanging out here in muh robe, shorts and ill-fitting shirt. I think I've just become a writer based on this ensemble.
Went to get a COVID test on Sat. I was having a wonderful conversation on Thur. night with my wife about something or other(I dunno...I wasn't paying attention) when out of the ether, every muscle in my back seized upon the opportunity to
begin their assault on my ability to remain vertical. It was immediate barf-city(terrible TV show, BTW) from the intensity of the pain, and I thought "Well....this must be my punishment for not listening to my wife earlier." 16 miserable hours later, I was finally tested, and of course it will be several days before I hear back. Full chills/sweats, headache and every muscle in my back feeling like there was a Ginsu knife stationed directly into it. Been on a course of Vitamin D, C and Elderberry along with asprin...today is the first day I've been able to eat since it started and I feel like I've been in a car wreck. Woof. If this isn't COVID, the flu has now accepted the challenge.
How y'all?

Additionally, I just noticed I've only posted 5,062 times in 18 years. I gotta get better at this.
Fever again. This sucks.
More trim priming and trim priming and trim priming.
Gah, stop licking door knobs y’all.
Hello, pretty good weekend so far. Doing some arts and crafts. A little Christmas gift for my boss. Bout to vote, then walk to the brewery for a beer. BBQing and watching DH race tonight. All in all what a Sunday should be.
if you did not know....good people on the internet raised over 30,000 dollars in 24 hours for edfromohio....had some undiagnosed mefical problems and has been living out of his car for six or so months....
get well...
I hiked 8 miles in the White Mountains. I didn't expect so much snow. Pics are on Strava for Toshi and canadmos to see.
Well. Similar times here. Back in June I got crazy low back pain, that later turned into fever. It was about 2 weeks after I had been out in the world. I got a COVID test after a few days of recovery and it was negative.
A few days ago I had some gnarly low back pain developing after downing time on the stationary bike trainer. Yesterday, I got a chill which turned into a fever roller coaster last night. It may be done already, as I’m back at 98.6. Still back pain though. Also, I had been out in the world a week or two ago.
Depends on where they’ve been.
Hopefully it’s just the flu and not Covid. Feel better homey.
I actually intended to ride Cub creek, ended up riding CT segment 1 backward from the river to the top and back down. Short great ride.
Good but cold 17 mile ride this morning. Between the temps and the wet leaves and roots a more moderate pace was necessitated. Took the kids to a playground, ran into some other engineers from work, came home and put up some more halloween decorations. Currently grilling bbq chicken and potatoes. Hot tub after kids in bed.
Strangely I have been suffering from mystery back pains. Feels like sore/pulled muscles with no good reason why. No other symptoms so I am chalking it up to getting old.
beautiful day. family hike, then roast chx and mashed potatoes with gravy.
i, too, chalk my back pain up to being old

What, we're chopped liver?
I tried to rally some folks to do segment 3-2-1 this weekend, had no takers. How's the climb up from the river there? I've heard it's miserable, but those reports generally are coming from people who started in Durango a week and a half prior and haven't slept in 6-8 days.
Lovely ride with Mr. and Mrs. @6thElement and my beautiful bride to be and the Mayor this afternoon. Dunkel in hand, stuffed peppers in the oven, just as @FSM intended.
I mean, not as miserable as Cub Creek would have been! No, it's not bad at all. The cold temps were a bigger problem.
3-2-1 would start at green mtn? Ish? that actually sounds amazing.
That was indeed a splendid time riding bicycles. Mrs Full Trucker to be was killing it.
what did you delightful humans ride today?
Bergen Peak, Mr Trucker and I had a jolly time playing BIKE on the technical moves on the climb.
