That’s not the first time he’s jingled the balls.

Little dude loves his glider bike. He'll be 3 at the end of the month and has been riding it since last summer. The tires are wore out. He was talking about his bike not having pedals last night. I think he is ready. He flies on this one. I know, I know... he'd be wearing his helmet if it were up to me. Of course, I didn't as a kid either. He was really excited to wear the hood for his bat costume that lady made. Fun.

We had our annual night gravel ride last night. The last couple years I just did the first half and bailed so I could race the next morning but I decided to skip racing and do the whole thing this year. It was so fun. I wasn't feeling all that confident about my decision to sign up for the 63 mile distance with the fast pace group but I managed to hold on up until about 50 miles at which point I dropped and then made a navigation mistake and had to ride back to the brewery on the main road. Luckily all my lights were still on and it was only a couple miles. Beers and laughs around the fire afterwards. Fucking great time, can't wait to do it again next year.

Also in bike news, I'm going to pick up a used mtb suspension fork tomorrow morning. It's priced really low so I hope it's all good. One big step closer to getting the salsa rolling. It's only been hanging on the hook for 6 years or whatever. The only other expensive thing I need is brakes. And a drivetrain. And a dropper post.

I had an awesome time with my daughter at the races this morning. I rode several notches better than I expected to. The super technical course worked to my advantage. I was in a 3 way battle hanging off the back, one guy had mechanical and the other guy blew up on the start of the final lap and I was able to drop him going up the hill which felt awesome.

17/40. Best result this season. I know I could be scratching at the top ten if I could pull it together a little more.

Told the wife I was going to accomplish a bunch of house and yard work today...... Before I learned it was going to get up to 80 degrees today. So what I really meant is I am taking a bike out of the garage and putting some gas in the truck.

I haven't been riding nearly enough. I did 45 miles yesterday and it kicked my ass.
Not sure if it's really feasible but I'm kinda wondering if I could qualify for the gravel world champs race in the age group category. The closet qualifier race is in Arkansas and you have to finish in the top 25 percent. I looked at the results from this year and calculated the pace and it seems doable with a bit of training and luck. Have to finish a 67 mile gravel course with about 5k ft of elevation in 4 hrs so about 17mph avg. Might be fun to try even if I don't qualify to go to France.
