Earl the cat 0 'cane

So we battened down the hatches and drove everyone off the Cape for what? The whimpiest hurricane on record. Yeah I know it could have been worse. I wonder if all of this computerized "accuweather" actually works, it appears they weren't even close on this one. Thanks to the Jim Cantore's of the weather world our Labor Day weekend will probably be the early end to the season. I know the weather geeks get all sorts of excited and probably didn't sleep all week, but give me a break, a cat 4 hurricane in the Caribbean isn't a "major cat 3" off New England (Matt Noyes NECN Weather). I guess I get to look forward to the fall sailing season when I put the cat boat back in on Sunday. The part that gets me the most is the waste of time fooling with boats for the last 2 days.
Because of the weather we did get to play with a new Speed Concept at the store today, this bike is ultra trick. Zak and I spent a bunch of time setting it up, possibly the most difficult bike to set up I've seen, fortunately after building it future adjustments are really easy.
more after the "storm"
cheers,
