In 2017 I sold this Gary Fisher Ziggurat to a guy in #Fredericton - I believe we met in Carleton Park to do the deal. If anyone knows where it is, I'd love to buy it back.

Do your thing, Internet. 🀞

I've realized I have an ice rink kink. I like 'em all - the barns, the Bell Centres, and everything in-between. Love to walk around and find all the nooks and crannies. The places most folks don't go. Maybe 'cause I worked in rinks growing up. So many stories in these buildings.

I believe that you can solve for that using the same equation as the one used for bikes wherein the correct answer is n+1 where 'n' equals the current number of hoodies owned. #math

A year ago this month I left the industry I’d been in for 25 years to work at a bike shop. Life is too short to not be doing what you want to be doing. Whatever it is, Godspeed good sir - you’ve got this.

Hey Kids! I've got some good news if you're worried about AI or world war ending us all - my guess is it won't. The bad news is it will actually be our own inability to prioritize, fund, and implement effective healthcare for humans. Have a great day!

The only good thing about the Habs losing an early Saturday game is I got to watch the Leafs blow a two-goal lead to lose to the Isles in OT. Lemons. Lemonade. Or something.

Every time the Habs play the Lightning it’s the same: slow start, then the Bolts just open the flood gates.

It wasn’t the best workout - forgot to eat something and brought too much baggage into the gym - but that’s one 4 week block complete.

Today is an annual seasonal tradition in our home: β€˜Sealing of The Crap Front Door We Never Use and Can See Daylight Through The Jambs But Still Never Find the Money to Replace Each Year Day’. A hearty sigh to all those who celebrate.

Gear from Explore Velo. Yes I work there, but I work there because I like the products there, so really this is only 50% shameless plug.
