Kevin Kline and Sigourney Weaver on in Dave. :smile:

And da new bike. I'll leave the highway road biking to Velo and NWICY. I am content with 20-25 mile trail rides.

Looks super nice Boxster, is that storage underneath your cell phone carrier on the front bar? Is your cable lock up full time attached? That must just about match your car perfect, how do you like your new carrier? Well sorry about so many questions, but it's like a new kid with out the sleepless nights, poopy diapers, formula, and labor. (and cost less too.) :)
 
Put the 4 hill route into rotation today, went well, cheated and used road bike. I've got a 40 mile route laid out for tomorrow need to leave fairly early then bike to a parade. Also cheating tomorrow and using road bike. With some good luck should knock it out in 3 hours.
 
just ordered new running shoes. Would have bought them from the local shoe store (who I went and visited Friday) but price was $40 more. Spent today at the Arboretum. Now DH and I want all the kinds of trees. Have to go back in the fall, bet it's stunning.

Wish we lived a bit closer to a place like that to run and bike through but we'd have to be right in town for that and that has all its own trade-offs.

Such excellent weather this weekend!
 
A leftover random thought from last week. I saw a 1927 T35B Bugatti it was participating in "The Great Race" from San Rafael Ca. to Moline Ill. Talked to the driver he said it rolls right along but rides really rough because of lack of suspension said they got bounced around pretty good on I90. Well that was something I don't see everyday.

The forward storage thingy has quite a bit of storage in it. Top is a clear cell phone holder. Like to use Map My Ride app. The lock is a Kryptonite cable and it has a frame mount. New Saris Bone 2 carrier works but short trunk of A5 is a challenge. Might just place the trunk brace onto the rear window. Installed a new wireless Cateye Strada Slim bike computer.

New car, new bike, new carrier:

Happy 4th of July from jolly ole England, where shockingly, they don't celebrate America's Independence day.

So naturally I am in the office. Of course we practically lived here this weekend.
 
Not murdered yet, but did get my *** slapped and grabbed by another guy whose buddy told me earlier he was from the outskirts of Madison.
 
I think I'm gonna pop the question in a few months on Ms A's birthday. She's put up with me long enough. Now I need to figure out a ring. Blah.
 
Been a busy last few days. Had friends over and went to a private fireworks show last night. Then the in-laws pretty much invited themselves over tonight by asking if I could smoke meat for them and what not. So we said sure. They are still here and don't show any sign in leaving.

Ooooo, that's annoying. A lot of people think I'm an early leaver from gatherings, but I just know how not to overstay my welcome.
