#notbackonitstillonit - well….
Actually, I was #offit for a bit due to some nerves in my back not cooperating.
Mentally and in spirit I remained #onit even during that down time.
So, to summarize: Not back, still on it.

Do you think a cat would think a person weird if they were running around their basement standing on things playing air guitar pretending to be Robin Finck? Asking for a friend. My friend may have also maybe pulled a muscle in the process.

Those summer group ride feels. Sometimes it’s good to drop to the back of the pack and take it all in.

Every time I check Bluesky lately it looks more and more decidedly.....twitter-y.
Maybe I'm just following the wrong folks or something.

That feeling when you measure the chain on your @surlybikes Steamroller and realize it’s worn, take your bike into the shop because you realize your bottom bracket is too and your homies @explorevelo.ca know exactly which chain is the right one for your bike. 👊💪👌🙏🚲

was a long week like they all are with plenty of highs and lows. The ride home from the shop today with a day off tomorrow was slow. Many body parts hurt and my brain was tired.
Will likely still ride tomorrow because really, every pedal stroke is a gift.

Rides 2 and 3 on the @salsacycles.bsky.social Cutthroat today. 2 commutes. Still trying to process all my thoughts into a longer post but also waiting to get a longer ride in. In the meantime: sublime.

Levels of rudeness, grumpiness and impatience at not often seen highs at the Costco Fredericton today. I don’t get it - if you’re shopping at Costco on a Sunday you are doing better than, like 90% of the world rn. What’re you so pissed about?

This one had a little bit of everything; angst, cold, considerable numbness, rain, freezing rain, lightning + thunder, release, and of course, coffee.

My Stonehenge
Semi-annual double shadow of the bike.
A few (many?) years ago I noticed this phenomenon when leaving work for the commute home. The sun lines up just right between the gap on the right and the windows on the left.
OFC it was on the one day w/o a film camera

I feel like if we had to have a goalie change, it's a good omen that it happened at home and Doby gets to take full advantage of all the Bell Centre juju. LFG! #gohabsgo

Aren’t players supposed to wait for ref to release the benches at the buzzer? Caps flooded the ice and stood around. Looking to start shit.

Always good to get muddy before work. Sun’s out, fun’s out.

If I was on the fence how to vote, running really poorly edited/produced/low-res looking ads every. Damn. Commercial. Break. During the Habs game would not win me over. Seems more desperate, really.
