this is my blog

after the premiere is over i finally get to head home. before i make it home my back tire is completely flat. being completely numb to any emotion, i dismount and roll my bike the remaining 5 blocks home.

i have the next day off because the entire afternoon will be spent diving. so first thing in the morning i need to figure out how i’m going to get my bike to the bike shop for yet another tire. i have zero energy left to wheel barrel limp it the 1.5 plus miles to the shop. i contemplate removing my tire and just walking it in to be repaired and then reattaching it myself. but knowing i’ve got about 4-6 miles to ride that day i do not want to trust myself to preform those duties safely.

i go for a long shot and call the bike shop to convince them to provide some sort of wrecker service. to my surprise they comply with my request. within about 20 minutes me, my bike, and my now sort of blackish fourth toe are on our way for repair…once again. i haven’t been awake for more than 45 minutes so knowing there will be coffee waiting (’cause my bike shop recently opened a coffee bar inside the shop) is keeping my eyes open and my hope for a good day afloat.

a giant coffee, a re-taping of my rim, and a thorn proof tube later my hair is once again blowing in the wind.

no issues since thursday so we will see what the future holds.

i’ve had an album titled ‘bosco and pixie’ up for sometime. this album has only had picture’s of bosco in it. i’ve finally added two of pixie today. they are the last two photos in that album.
