jolly good.

thirsty thursday. this was the day back in college when the weekend began. as a science major, one needed to be mindful of lab days. but, there's no lab on fridays so thursday happy hour was usually on the slate. but now, i even think about a drink on thursday and my friday is ruined. i guess that is good. instead, i'll go out and ride for two hours (3/4 of which is in the dark of night).

speaking of labs...gunnar bikes have been the focus of my fancy the past few days (the company is named after the factory pet: gunnar the labrador). i think it's something to do with the amount of fun i've been having on my steel frame 1x1 (i know...everyone is sick of hearing about it). anyway, the rock hound may have become my dream bike. simple, clean lines, and the unmistable ride of steel. the 29er version would be really cool...but that would be a new build from scratch. i'm just not as willing to dump thousands of dollars into a bike anymore. hmmmmmm. maybe it could become a work in progress? we'll have to do our taxes first to see if we're not eating mac and cheese for the next 2 months.
