    Let off some steam on tonight's ride back from PNC. Glad I have that physical outlet post-games - especially those as frustrating as tonight. Returning to the south Saturday, so I'll get in much more time on the TT bike in prep for my November tri. Hoping the parts come in before I leave the burgh so I can install before migrating back south for the winter.

    My bike is in the shop waiting for a new front wheel after I was hit by a car two weeks ago. The bike store said it should be in this week.

    Back in the warmer flatter south today, so I did a 50 miler with a buddy today on my tri bike, and got some cyclists palsy (numbness of my pinky/ring finger). I'm guessing it was because I wasn't spending much time on the aero bars, and the extra pressure from keeping my weight forward on the brake hoods shot my ulnar nerve. I'll keep that in mind and likely switch back to my road bike for group rides in the future, or just accept that I'll look awkward in the aero bars.

    My goal for this month will be to get out every day if the PSI is below 130. Three nations are now helping fight the fires in Indonesia (Singapore, Malaysia and Russia) so let's hope that this ends the haze and that Russia doesn't get confused and bomb Surabaya and Kalimantan and soak Syria!
