Cool day yesterday, was walking into the office and saw this in the sky, expanding exhaust plume from the SpaceX launch catching the sun. Then, met up for a couple beers with Scotty.
Listened to my first audio book, One Second After by William R. Forstchen. Based on a very real potential scenario (EMP), it shows how fragile society really is and how ill prepared we are. Pretty thought provoking and a bit scary. How would you rate your survival skills?
Landed in Denver a bit ago and parked next to this. My view was obstructed but went for a picture as soon as I got off. I could not believe all people (including pilots from United and other airlines) lined up to get a picture. Got this as it was leaving. Way cool @united!🇺🇸🇺🇸
The best street bike is your ex-race bike. Knocked out a belt change on the Ducati Monster this morning. 75 minutes taking my time. I sometimes forget how easy the basic things are to work on. I remember changing belts on my 1198 and 749, a little more time, but just as easy.
Went counter clockwise today, that was hard. Didn’t see any snakes, but diffidently heard one. Oh, and that damn tree that jumped in my way. Hurts a bit more than I expected. It wasn’t the scratch, it was the impact.
First mountain bike ride of the year. The goal was to not die. We both at some point thought we were on the doorstep, but alas, here we are celebrating our survival (undoubtedly much to the dismay of some) with a great bourbon at @blackhatdistillery .
