so far … so good …

Things are looking good today .. I finished my MMBA todos last night and will be dropping off $$ to our treasurer today. I put jersey orders in the mail today and also finally sent back the broken copy of The Matrix to Amazon.

I think our supplies for the weekend are coming together pretty well. Bike stuff is pretty much accounted for – I had to buy some extra 29er tubes yesterday since we’re both on the big wheels now, the 26″ tubes we have lying around just won’t do us any good 🙂

Thanks to Nick, my bike woes should be all taken care of now. Last night he swapped out the Salsa bar with my fancy-dancy Ritchey bar (I love the idea of that Salsa bar, its a nice carbon oversized bar, but with 11* of sweep, my hands were numb constantly) – and he dug up my grip shift ergon grips to go on there too! As a bonus, I had an oversized stem with a 10* rise, so he put that on, upside down, so that I can (hopefully) get a little lower now – I was feeling a little too upright with the original setup. I’ll take her out for a spin tonight to see how it all fits together, but I’m pretty optimistic.

I still need to pick up some prescriptions from the pharmacy and take the jeep in for the fuller than full service oil change. Plus all of the packing and associated laundry. The plan is to deal with the ‘scripts today and the oil change tomorrow. Laundry and packing tonight. Ride tomorrow.

And, apparently, we’re going to meet Shari and Robin at the Taco Bell with the BEST hand dryers in the world. Does it get much better than that?

    No need for 29″ tubes. Use the 26″ ones, just blow them up slightly before installing. That’s what I use without any problems. I carry a 29″ tube only in a race, to make it quicker to install.
