What a great pedal yesterday. There was a group ride with normal Derek group at Hale for 6:00. I got out of the house by 5:30 so hit the closest trail from the house and linked up a few miles before I got started with the group ride. It was overcast by the time I got out there but heat and humidity were present but have been worse. I was going to jump on the Tanuki which has only seen two handful of uses but was pissed when I found the rear brake lever needs a bleeding or pads pushed back in since they are rubbing and have no play. I was in no mood to tinker so it was rigid all the way and loved every second of it. Felt really good on the bike and felt overall tremendously better than Mondays crap show. I met up with the guys and got cranking, it was a very fast pace up front and surprisingly found myself riding very strong and it felt mighty good. I was left wanting more at the end of this ride but light was low so I pedaled myself happily home. I hope to ride tonight but we will just have to wait and see what the wife is doing.

Hale supa fast
