I’ll be there.

I’ll note the upper bike racks (by the dumpsters and loading dock doors) were buried in the same trash the past two Saturdays when I was there.

Couldn’t get a photo because I was too busy doing the stupid trick. We ride very well loaded Tern GSDs at work. A partner had his battery die. In order to get back to the office in a timely manner, and to help his fading legs, I pushed him from the White House up 15th St and the Ontario Rd hill to the WABA office with a broom stick. Made a SURPRISING difference to use my legs and e-assist when pushing him.

I’m participating but not doing any paperwork. I think I’m winning.

Enjoy the fruits, such as they are, of my brief journey around the internet looking for foot mitts.

I just switch over to heavier wool hiking socks when it gets colder without using insoles.

As the last of the late registrants, I’d gladly join @LordofTheMark and make a belated team of 2;-)

Welcome! Tell us about yourself, and how you got your very popular name

Next year, if there are at least 10 of a name, Sunyata should make that a team just for giggles.

I live in Woodridge and work in AdMo, and that commute is a good chunk of my riding. Sorry I’ve missed a bunch of days, but I missed registration, so I thought I wasn’t participating, so I’ve not been sleezing. Now that I’m in though, I may try to pick up and win beerneuring again, if I can catch up to Sunyata or Jon.

I’m currently (this week and last) riding a bit less because I’ve managed to have three bikes down for maintenance at the same time. Well, two are longer term issues that I haven’t gotten around to fixing and the third is in for maintenance for the first time since 2015.
My Urban Arrow has been down since before Thanksgiving because the chain spins, but the hub doesn’t. A 8.5″ long, 100 pound bike is not easy to get to a shop when the chain spins but the hub doesn’t. My cross bike has been down a bit longer because I put tubeless tyres on it, but I can’t make them hold air longer than a mile ride. I took the worse wheel to a shop, and they put a new valve in it, but it only holds air for an hour or so. Le sigh. (If anyone is a tubeless whisperer, I have beer)

Hi. There was a lack of Jeffs around so they’ve added me to try and bring the Jeff level to where it should be.

[jwetzel]

mmmm beer.

[jwetzel]

I’d like to propose a team name change to “One Team To Anchor Them All.”

Does just posting to my Twitter account count?
