  1. First ride on new bike,:

    The Crack and environs Pacifica, CA.

    Need longer seatpost for climbing (arriving in the next few days).

    Descends nicely, nasty steep rockiness sprinkled with drops are faster and more fun on this rig.

    A few minor biffs, some incredible weather (mid 60s is nice after weeks of 90+ in my neighbourhood),
    a new authentic taqueria to add to the list and onlly minor traffic on the way home.

    After surviving the nastiness yesterday, I break my pinky toe leaving Pacbell park today.

    Go figure.

    Drinking beer and eating hot dogs is more dangerous than riding rocky fall lines.

    Since we are constantly told that "90% of accidents happen in the home", does it surprise you that
    such a mundane location provides you with pain?

    Too close to my Truth after my Truth was revamped.

    Limited as far as running wide tires in the rear. Head angle too steep, more long travel trail bike
    than freeride type bike. BB pretty high, etc. etc.

    In the mad dash to leave the park, admist the jostling through the turnstyles, I went a bit too
    far right.

    Toe meets edge of turnstyle, no pictures to follow.

    true.

    The mind serves properly as a window glass rather than as a reflector, that is, the mind should give
    an immediate view instead of an interpretation of the world.

    Damn it Dave, just when I really start thinking you have no redeeming value, you come up with
    a good one.
