Spent most of the day chasing food for the graduation party tomorrow and setting up the venue spaces.

Also did 3.6 miles while going slowly talking on the phone to start. As well as a fairly slow cool down segment on my gravel road.

about 23 miles me thinks. 19 miles on the main segment. https://www.mapmyride.com/workout/7951885834 19.16 Distance(mi) 16.27 Avg Speed(mph) 1:10:40 Duration 973 Calories(kcal) 363.5 Elevation Gain(ft)

lolz. Got a 15 mile ride in today. Pretty free tomorrow it seems, thinking a nice long ride somewhere.

It came back and I didn't do anything now I just hope it stays

FU YouTube!!!

Anyone have any suggestions to revert back?

Michael sent me a way to go back to the original format but there are multiple steps and I am not confident I can do it without making things worse.

YouTube changed its page format/appearance and I don’t like it at all and they don’t care.

I hope to get a century in myself soon

Cool aarr

Now time to build up the bike miles for the century ride on juny22

Completed another season of pickle ball with more wins than losses and no major injuries…tis a good year

I take solace in the fact that even though I continue to age Jochs (and JT) are still slightly older than myself.

30 years this year for me.

No birthdays today, eh? Appears there weren’t many parents to a railfan enjoying themselves in that way on August 16th of any particular year.

awaken with thee. Jochs and all others here continue to age daily

That thing just doesn’t get any speed. Solo or with him on board.

Bikey # 2 also complete. 3.32 miles on the tandem bike to pick up my son. Empty stoker seat on the way there. My son stoking on the way home.

Almost time for bikey #1 today

has started a new topic: UP’s Big Boy Stand Alone PTC

She claims she is going to Michigan State University in the fall

Hey Jetlink, Where is she going to college. It’s pretty much assumed kids will go to college after HS even if they take a gap year. Although Mike Rowe (of Dirty Jobs fame) has some great talks on Trade Schools, etc...

Daughter #1 has High School graduation ceremony tomorrow.

Daughter #3 won the first round of the soccer playoffs. They beat belding 5-4. Since they won they keep going. Next game is in GR on Weds. Hearing it is against the MHSAA state champions from last year. So likely be a pretty tough contest for them.

Her season is now over.

Daughter #2 won both of her softball games against East Lansig. 20-2 and 15-3 respectively.

But anything less that 60 is tough to do.

I think my PR is about 52 minutes.

Made it to the RR tracks in Sunfield and back home in less than 60 minutes. Which is a sometimes tough goal for me to achieve. First time this riding season I acoomplished the feat.

Bikey complete

There were rail cars in town but didn’t see any moving.

Middelton Diner is good eating and once a week you might see a train

Fried chicken was still plentiful and tasty

Pie is extra. Not on the buffet. I do not remember that being the case. But it has been years since I have eaten there.

Survived trip to near Alma. Had lunch at the famous Middleton Diner on the way home.

Jeff L: i’m most definitely not near Alma....that would be Jetlink

@~Z~ near Alma? Don’t wake up the sleeping bear (Jeff L).

And then back to lake o for more softball and soccer games. Could be the last ones of the season.

Heading to near Alma later on today.
