well enough for work

soft pedaled the route today.
no speed.
just steady effort thru
the dark and rainy morning.
head cold is clearing out.
lungs still have some obstructions.
want to keep this illness at bay
as vacation is planned
for the end of this week.
its not often that i get sick
but when it occurs
i get knocked the fuck out.

it hasn't seen action in ages
collecting dust
taking up space
why not re-appropriate for useful tasks
34x16 fixed
38mm knobby front tire
35mm touring rear
front disc only
trailer hitch out back
now it'll at least get farmers market use
and of course trailering to the playground
maybe some rail trail gravel mileage
or even back up commuter duty
fenders and studded tires this winter are possible

dogfish head world wide stoudt
eighteen percent alcohol
but only a six ounce glass
very very sweet
maybe even a little syrupy
but still a robust stoudt
quite enjoyable

a chrome ranchero will suffice.
tallboy approved as well.
but 384 fl. oz. tends to get heavy quick.
so its best to purchase close to home.
