I just wait for Tori to need to go get cigarettes at the store so I have somewhere to ride, it&#8217;s that bad.<\/p>\n<p>I drove into the office today to get my blue bike and brought Wendell&#8217;s older mountain bike down here for storage\/a spare. Our <a href=\"http:\/\/flickr.com\/photos\/btmspox\/2623188567\/\">garage<\/a> had nine bikes in it this morning somehow.<\/p>\n<p>Wendell, Hannah and I rode over to Seward Park to go swimming and it turned out to be bike day there. I think it was sponsored\u00a0 by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cascade.org\/\">Cascade Bicycle Club<\/a> \/ Group Health. I lost my chain while pedaling through the parking lot and took an <a href=\"http:\/\/flickr.com\/photos\/btmspox\/2623185261\/\">awesome spill<\/a>. Nothing broken but a few dents and cuts really. The folks there gave me a cute little bandage kit and I borrowed a bike tool to tighten some things up. I lost the chain twice more on the way home across capitol hill.<\/p>\n<p>I did some reading when I got home. The rear has a quick release so it&#8217;s hard to get the chain taught right. The red bike is a single speed with 40\/18. The chainline isn&#8217;t straight though so I&#8217;m wondering if I should buy a new wheel with a flipflop in July and try out one side with a fixed gear since I&#8217;ve been having so much fun with the single speed.<\/p>\n<p>I think I&#8217;m going to try to get some sleep now. I&#8217;ve been putting that off because it&#8217;s still really hot inside. If this doesn&#8217;t work out I&#8217;m sleeping in the basement or the garage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alright, so all I do anymore is ride bikes.
