Got my front stopper a little more dialed in, though I don't think it'll ever be snappy.
Very happy that the tires still had air, I've fixed 5 flats in as many days.

Cleaned and regreased my front end then installed a new lower headset bearing. Apparently, slogging thru rain can get your beaings a little crunchy when dirt gets packed in.

New brake cable, new pegs, and I am trying out gum grips for the first time. 15 years and i've never run a set. Got some on clearance. Anyone else like or hate gum grips?

Gum grips are the best. Your hands won't get black anymore. Actually waiting for a pair of the new gum odi longneck's.

DID SHRED IT.

Best day of riding in years, got flat 3's back and went ahead and learned them up shit.
Learned fast plant 3's
did some solid lines that I wouldn't have dreamed of 2 months ago

Got home and tore it down and painted it emerald green

YES

Tonight was rad on the peg game. Backwards dub down a ledge to 180. Feebled a stair rail. Almost got feeb up a ledge to bar. I've been working on it since I had my brain injury and caught one fucked up. It's coming.

Decided to paint my frame again yesterday and while it was drying in my garage, the twine holding it up snapped causing my frame to fall and dented the lip of the headtube. I was able to get most of the dent out so the bottom HS bearing can go in. Lesson learned: Don't used twine to hold up a frame.

Installed some new Continental tires on the Raleigh since my old tires were cracking on the sidewalls. Planning on riding it to work tomorrow to test them out.

Nice.
I got familiar with a new park and just forced myself to hit all the lines I was thinking about and pussying out on. Feels good.
On the other hand, I put on some Adam Banton grips since ODIs don't seems to ever break in for me and my dry hands. The Bantons are quite painful. If they don't break in soon, they are going in the trash.
