I've been wanting to get my bike checked out by Belmont Bikes for a while and today looked like I had a window of opportunity to get away from desk. The shifting has been a little suspect for a while and I actually managed to get it shifting better on my own when I swapped back over to the gravel wheels. It still wasn't 100% and I was going to be nearby anyway so I had them take a look while a grabbed a burrito. The shifting is much better now but I found out I need a new chain. This current one didn't last very long. The trails weren't as dry as I thought they'd be, especially John Brooks. There were still some muddy sections and it was just a little wetter than hero dirt, like wet clay. And between the new ruts and some trail damage from people riding in the mud, some of it was really bumpy. My hands actually started to hurt going down Rambler. It could also just be me trying to go at MTB speeds on my gravel bike. I woke up yesterday morning to the alert about an aggressive mountain lion. I didn't know what that meant. Then I saw this tweet and a news report that one mountain lion killed another one. Dayum! So that's what an aggressive mountain lion is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Io579Czx-f0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw1yHEbKAtw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiiUFbsf_Rs
