I’ve received a bone to choose with Ms. Greta:
How dare me? How dare you! I assumed the planet was boiling and the glaciers have been melting and that by now my kids wouldn’t know what snow seems like and I’d be dodging falling coconuts in February. Yet this winter’s kicking the crap out of us. So what provides!?!
Yeah yeah, I do know what you’re going to say. “That’s not how local weather change works!” Oh, spare me. I WAS PROMISED A SEARING-HOT FUTURE AND THAT’S WHAT I WANT!!! I’m bored with icy winds, and frozen, blighted landscapes, and squinting because the snow cowl redirects the rays of the solar straight into my retinas:
Oh, don’t get me unsuitable, I’m making one of the best of it. When the paths are frozen and I’m heading out on the Roadini:
And when the snow is deep and the roads are a multitude I’m on the market on the be-fendered Homer:
But the older I get the extra interminable the winters appear. Perhaps I have to retire to some biking paradise with a gentle local weather, just like the Mediterranean, or Frederick, MD:
Where “Everyday Ray” has ridden his bicycle each single day for over seven* years:
*[Note to Intern: check that math.]
So is he possessed of an unusual fortitude? Or is Frederick merely a biking paradise?
Oh, and if you happen to’re questioning, Everyday Ray owns six bikes, and considered one of them’s a Seven:
So I assume you can say he’s all sixes and Sevens.
Sorry.
In any case, neither snow nor rain nor warmth nor fool motorist stays this Frederick Fred from the swift completion of his appointed experience:
Good for him, and lengthy could he cycle–although it does happen to me that there is no such thing as a simpler partner to cuckold than a bike owner, given our completely reliable day by day disappearances. In reality, a few of us even share our actual location always to make it even simpler!
And but few of us assume to do the identical with our bikes, although it’s most likely not a nasty concept:
Apparently an AirTag led police proper to the situation:
I used to be after all extra inquisitive about studying about this “one-of-a-kind bicycle,” which turned out to be a Pivot Firebird:
I’m completely out of it in relation to suspension bicycles, so I headed over to the Pivot website to see what it was all about:
I shortly realized that that is the perfect bicycle if you happen to’re seeking to don a full-face helmet and hump the watermelon:
I additionally watched this extremely informative video:
From which I realized the Firebird boasts a trunnion-mounted something-or-other that appears just like the bike has an oil derrick in its crotch:
I don’t know what any of these phrases imply, however presumably the factor within the center is the Johnson rod:
I assume I’ve vehicles on the mind since I’ve been trying to diagnose a examine engine gentle on my getting older four-wheeled inside combustion recumbent, and I’ve gotten about so far as getting the code:
This narrows it down significantly, since primarily based on my analysis this code can imply something from the gasoline cap is just too free to the engine’s about to blow up. So naturally I’ve tightened the gasoline cap and am hoping for one of the best, as a result of if it’s something extra difficult than that then I’m out of my depth.
Fuck it, I’m leasing a Hyundai
