On the grid yesterday, I noticed the weekly forecast included 100 degree temperatures for the next week (they are now dropped to 95-99). Summer has begun. We are trying to keep up with watering, that's about all we can do in the yard.
Meanwhile, this week has been about recovering from a head cold. Monday was the worst day for me. For Yvonne it was Saturday. The illness was sneezing, headache and dizziness. On the worst day, all you want to do is sleep. It didn't hit me as hard as Yvonne, but it's taking longer for me to drain.
The Boneshakers rode around the lake on Thursday. Five riders strong, we did the 9 miles in 45 minutes. That's not too bad. The mixture of bikes was interesting and we instantly realized we had not planned accordingly for one rider on a road bike. He ended up carrying his bike about 50 yards to the paved trail. Then he rode circles around us. He's a pro rider. We should probably have one of those in the group ...
I plan to meet with Warlord tomorrow and work on the Boomshaker. I donated my hybrid Schwinn for the music bike, but it needs work. The fork is still bent, but we're going to try to have it fixed, rather than forking out $80 for a new one. Once the bike is in shape, we'll begin building the boom. We might buy speakers tomorrow. WNBC's Combat has an 8 inch sub on his and we are thinking along those lines.
Off to weekend errands ...
