KC and Black Squirrel
Saw two rare animals on yesterday's DP: Krazy Carl and the Morning Choice black squirrel.
XX was along for the ride of course.
No fireworks. Just a CW standard loop.

The Morning Ride Cue Sheet - TMR Ellicott City, MD
A friend asked who had a cue sheet. Seemed like a fair enough challenge to try and scrape off of the net.
First attempts with downloading GPX files from Garmin COnnect and uploading them to Map My Ride proved unsuccessful.
Google Maps directions and dragging in points along the way did the trick. Had to turn on the bicycle directions feature to allow the closed-to-traffic parts in Patapsco Valley State Park.

Copied and pasted turn-by-turn directions into Excel. Converted all the units into miles and totalled the mileage along the way. Formatted and printed to PDF.

Roots but no Rocks
Woke for a dawn ride but decided to root and unbloat my Galaxy S3 instead. With this tool I didn't even need to wipe my phone too get it rooted. www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s3-sch-i535-verizon-how-to-root-gs3debugfsroot-104741/

Backwards Toe In
For the second time, toeing in front brake pads backwards totally eliminated the horrible shudder.
Would you call that 'toe out' instead?

That's 3 straight 6 am rides for BB, yo.

The trick to getting sites with GoDaddy Registered Domain Names to work is Open DNS. I'm using it now.
