Turns out there’s this whole class of scam websites that’s basically a scraped Home Depot website where the deals are too good to be true because they aren’t.
Gee it would be nice if google was more concerned with the abundance of scams instead of taking the scammers money.

Between a novid road trip to get married, the work and planning to make that happen, house sitting and getting a tooth pulled I haven’t done one of these in a while. And since it’s 87° out today it seems like a good of time as any to hop back on these rides.

More fun and adventures in ATX cycling infrastructure. The spot on the hellroad where they didn’t put flexposts in after redoing the bike lanes finally got some and before I even got to see them they were all knocked over because they were just glued on like pasties

I’d been wearing them for years as a welder and so it felt pretty natural for it to become my grocery getter.
I do cover it with a neck gaiter though, keeps it clean and disturbs the locals less.

Careful, this can be damaging long term to your battery, be extra careful not to charge a cold battery. It really pays to wrap it in an insulating layer.
