52 Windy & Rain

off the cd...not internet...way cleaner sound that way

No Ride in...Drove.
From work yesterday I rode over to where the Triumph motor is hanging out. Saw some good, some bad and went over what's what and gave the green light to proceed. From there I called to let the guys who are going to drill a hole in the side of our brick house for the lower bathroom exhaust fan that I'd be home a couple min late. They were running late themselves. I boogied home and during so got hit w/ a couple of rain drops and was going against the wind. I was tired. Got home about 5...they guys said they wouldn't be able to get over til bout 630 or 645....tri training ride & run started at 6 and was a 30 min drive and I haven't eaten and Tori was out w/ friends....I just fig that I had too much to do and to little time. I ate a couple slices of deli turkey, dumped a can of tuna in a bowl mixing in some miracle whip topped w/ crispy bagged salad lettuce and chopped up spinach. Quickly inhaled that and decided to leave the back door open and drive really fast out to ELake.
And that's what I did. Tossed some clothes in my back pack, bike into the jeep and headed on out leaving home at like 535. Put the pedal to the floor, called the fella's to let em know. Made it to the group at like 602 or so. We rode and ran the course. 12 mile ride I believe and 3 mile run. I was running on fumes but did well. I always feel good after doing the group thing. Just like most other things it can be so easy to skip out on occasions like party's, weddings, church, exercise or training but usually feel pretty darn good afterwards. Same here. The weather did seem sketchy and scared 70 % of the group making it a really small group.
Tonight I can now install the exhaust fan completely w/ the hole in the brick. It turned out really good. They have some sort of special boring tool that is designed for this...you can really screw stuff up if you were to go about it any other way.
SMBRide tomorrow morn....I'll be there at 8 unless something else requires my attention.
Afterwards get some drywall up and hopefully completed...start mudding???? or call an experienced hand and pay....not sure yet....leaning towards the latter.
Anyways...I'll post some pics this weekend of remodel job in progress
