Long time no post

Okay, back to it. With the weather being so nice, I've been out riding a lot and hence, not updating the blog.

Enough with the excuses here is some stuff. I carry a good amount of crap in the trunk of my car. Jumper cables, bungee cords, tow straps, 20mm fork adapters for the roof rack, wrenches (10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 17mm), a reverseable screwdriver...you get the idea. To my credit, I've never been stranded anywhere and can help anyone who might be.

But I also really enjoy the occasional canyon carving session and all that crap makes a TON of noise. Solution? Foam in the spare tire well.

Check it:


And the resulting empty looking trunk.



Also, Erika's garden is shaping up nicely. Her tomatoes are coming along. We put up some plastic wrap to protect them from the harsh sunlight (we live at 6000' elevation) and all the hail we get in the spring.





Besides tomatoes, there are onions, some hot peppers and some other tasty stuff.
