good morning ride down to the beach, up into the palisades and then up and back mandeville canyon.

been reading up on how to make strong bike wheels, and apparently the spokes need to be a lot tighter than I had mine. I cranked them all down a bunch (probably still not enough) and didn't seem to have any problems, so I guess I'll go tighter next time.

C • Spokes 2

the wind shifted again, nice and cool today. seems to be switching every few days between miserably hot and dry to breezy and cool.

pretty slow game. even hotter and drier today.

warm, breezy and very dry - at 6am. looks like fire season isn't quite ready to stop yet

cool and breezy. nice and clear though, no smoke left.

finally got around to mounting the brake on these things, which turns out to work quite well. also put the new roller ski ferrules onto the poles, which don't really make much of a difference other than the knowledge that I'm not destroying my snow baskets.
