Nibbs XLII (Page 70)

Oh no...it just started to hail!!  Hopefully it stops before tomorrow afternoon!

Well the hail stopped and it's raining a lot less, so that's a good sign.  I'm so sleepy, so I'm heading to bed.

In the next couple of weeks they are going to introduce their new road shoe. 

I rode a lovely bike today. They didn't have any there small enough to really fit me, but because of the downward curve of the down tube I was able to test ride a 56cm.  It was a reach to shift/brake, but the ride was lovely.  It was lovely to look at too...and so smooth to the touch...and light.

I/it got lots of attention when I was test riding it.  comments along the lines of 'that bike is gorgeous', 'it is so curvy,'  'is it really wood?' and one 'hey, I bet you could nail things to that bike'

I rode this frame :

The seat post, fork. stem, and handlebars are all carbon fiber.
in this wood combo:

It is wenge outside, padauk pinstripe, sapele center


sorry it is so big...I am feeling to lazy to edit the size. 

I hope that it isn't pouring rain tomorrow for my 50 for Judi ride.

I am rather frustrated with my computer...somehow a bunch of the settings have gotten changed.  It isn't automatically connecting with the internet anymore...it says that there is a program interfering with the connection, but and I can't figure out what it is. 
My keyboard and navigation settings have changed as well.  The keyboard shortcuts don't work, nor do the scrolling functions.   Argh!

I'd heard that, but I'm not going to use them soley for running, so I went with the Sprints. They seem to be having supply issues with them!

Unfortunately, it is raining quite hard right now.

Rain, rain, go away....!

Sounds like you might have a virus or spyware.  I would use a couple of free programs to check it out: Avira antivirus and Adaware.

We had to cancel.  It's raining really hard.   

Hoping to reschedule later in the month.

I have done a few full computer scans and they have come up clean.  I think that the various changes may correspond with Firefox and google updates.

Well the weather men were wrong (surprised?) and it was a beautiful day.  A bit cold, but the sky was clear and blue.  I put in a nice long ride. I had to make some changes to the route, but it should be fairly close to 50 miles.  I am going to map it in a little bit.

My improvised route was between 49.5 and 50 miles.    I was so slow.

I hurt. 

Aww Im sorry to hear that!

I got out for a ride Saturday for the first time in months... it wasnt 50ks or 50 miles but it was what I could do!

Lol - guess I could ride again on the 28th!

Im really keen to try and get out for a little ride each weekend now! It was sooooo good even though I needed lots of breaks and to take it really easy!

Aww thanks - it made me smile too... was such a relief in many ways so now Im more motivated to at least try and get out once on the weekends...

I was exhausted afterwards and slept a lot of Sunday but still... it was awesome! And I can still get up the little hill to the cafe ahead of my friends

Morning, NIBBs.
I've been moved under a new Supervisor to be a "bridge" with the group I was with to the group I'll be working with now (which I left a couple of years ago cuz I didn't want to be in that area). *sigh*

Just worried of a couple of things, but maybe I'm over-thinking what they say I will do vs. what they'll actually have me do.  Thanks, QZ.

You can borrow one of my tasers. That way, the choice will be up to you.

Tasers rule.

Yeah, Cat!!  I'm so happy to hear that you were able to get out. 

That'll get me escorted out the door.

Thanks Jen! Trying to find a way to do it again this weekend!
