Wednesday I headed downtown in the morning and went to the gym. Afterwards I went to go fix the flat tire on my bike only to discover that both of my wheels had been stolen. Fuck! The thief had replaced them with dramatically inferior wheels I’m guessing in an attempt to look less like he was stealing them. I left the office mid day and headed over to REI to assess the damage. The rear wheel was garbage so I had that replaced but the front wheel is OK and I can ride on that for a couple more months. The stolen wheels were orginal to the bike which means they were very old and it had a racing cassette that had to have been designed by people with an expertise in cruelty. The new wheel has much more user friendly gearing and one the sting wears off as to why I had to get a new wheel in the first place I’m going to be really happy with it. Props to REI which gave me discounts on everything and always treats me like a classy piece of ass.
I went home and had lunch and then headed to Jane Warner Plaza to meet my Lifecycle group for our ride out to Tiburon. We had two riders and it was a really great day. Here’s Marcus in Tiburon. This was pretty much his first training ride:
Ron and Marcus:
I got home a little after 7. Mr. Poe made me dinner and then we went to bed. Long ass day.
