good weekend.
it was a good weekend. friday afternoon i learned what the insurance company was going to give me. without getting into the dollars and cents breakdown, i came out nicely. time to do some bike shopping... i'm still melancholy about hanging up the red and white s-works though.
the what do ya know quiz show was a little boring, but fun none-the-less. then it was off to our house for lunch and conversation. i think it was a fun day...i hope everyone else thought so too. oliver was a pretty good puppy with 10 people in the house...i think he'll grow up to be a very polite dog.
yesterday we hit eriks and i handled the s-works carbon hardtail. that is a sweet bike, i shouldn't have played with it...i can't get it out of my mind. i'm leaning towards this years specialized epic marathon...hopefully ben's cycle can give me a solid deal. this years version has a nice component group with xt everything with an upgrade to sram xo shifters and rear derailleur, a carbon linkage and of course the brain rear and a fox F100RLT. i wish it was terralogic but you can't have everything (nor do i deserve it). 100mm front and back...should be a good bike for years to come. hopefully vinny can hook me up.
we also bought some plants and i rode in the rain for 2.5hrs. well, it only rained for and hour and a half of the ride.
oliver made it through the night again, that's twice in a week. good puppy. he must have tired himself out from having puppy rage last night...he was a mess. teething will be a test of our patience...but we will do a dance of joy when he loses his puppy canines. or more accuarately his long razor teeth.
happy monday!
