Going to be a hot one 🫠

After going out to gawk at the voltage gauge on the SuperDuty – already charging the starting battery – I thought it night be cool enough to ride in but ultimately I decided to test out my new Swiper card and bus it in.

Bike rode fairly good last night 🚲 and I ran to the store on the way home but I’ve still been tired and it was hot. I thought about riding in with the cool breeze but when it’s this hot, you know there is a a constant threat of thunderstorms. β›ˆοΈ And I do want to do further adjustments to the bike, maybe see if I can pull the rear wheel and further straighten the derailuer hanger with vise grips and a hammer πŸ”¨.

A number of people have reached out about Big Red πŸ›», I will work on setting up appointments for them to look at the truck today. πŸ”Ž I found the title πŸ–‡οΈ and other service and purchase records. Was $4,500 to little to ask for? Compared to similar trucks and accounting for the frame rust and required repairs I think it’s fair though I could see why a lifted truck in otherwise decent shape would go for such a price. Honestly at this point I just want the truck gone and just enough money to top off my savings account so I can return to my full investing plan.

The weekend looks like rain, 🌧️ so maybe it’s good so I’ll be around to show Big Red. I kind of want Red gone too now because he’s no longer on the battery charger and the SuperDuty has basically replaced him in my mind. So probably no Schoharie trip this weekend. πŸ•οΈ Maybe the subsequent weekend I can do Schoharie, right before I head out on vacation to the Finger Lakes. Or maybe not. Seems like a lot of weekends lately have been rainy or I’m busy. I know every summer is like that.

Started researching dash cameras πŸ“Ή to capture my trips. The old one I have has an increasingly fogged up lens. Apparently that was an issue with the older models. It would be nice to have capture some of the views along the way. I used to do that a lot more before the old camera started recording such shit pictures after getting fogged up. ⏺️
