rest day, too many things hurt after last week. got new a new set of rollerblade wheels, since one of my old ones got some glass wedged in it and split all the way through. was making some neat noises.

Forgot to mention one more thing to add to the list of broken bike parts: my left shoe. The plastic sole (not the metal shank) is snapped on the inside between the arch and one of the cleat holes. This one I'm gonna blame squarely on the airline flying home, as they were fine when I finished raam, and I didn't touch them in the six weeks after that. And I think I had them crammed along the outside of my checked bag. Anyway its still useable, I've been riding with it all week, it just flexes a bit now. Kindof a shame though, as they were probably 12 years old and had molded to the exact shape of my feet to be really comfortable.

Oh yea and I almost got hit by a box of roofing nails that bounced off a truck today.

spent two hours mapping lower Temescal Canyon, which is open park-o sort of terrain. except that its steep downhill and is split by a six lane road. so probably not so useable even for a sprint, but it'll make a sweet CF map. Then took a run up the upper canyon to the ridgeline.
