The small joys today thread (a bit of Yang for FoA Yin of late)

Years ago I posted something similar in the pro bike mechanic thread – my wife came home saying to me that her front wheel was making a funny rattling noise. Turns out I didn’t tighten the track bolts on her front wheel after the previous service. Lawyer tabs were the only thing just holding it on.

SJ for me - down at the beach at Aireys, perfect winters day, kids down running wild in the surf, sun in my eyes, sound of the beach, now having a beer and working on my bike for a ride tomorrow. Work has been bonkers last month and having some family time and bike time is straight up pure joys.

NSJ: not much actual rain but plenty of puddles resulted in drenched shoes and socks.
SJ: method of laying out socks in a towel and then rolling them up worked a treat!

the strap on my trusty old knog rear light is very close to snapping & i’ve been meaning to get a new one before it inevitably fails one night.

found a beat up & broken one on the road today. managed to fix it, charge it, and it works! exactly the same aside from colour & a lot more scratches. :relaxed::ok_hand:t3:

SJ: Listening to music in the middle of the day at un-neighbourly volumes as most of the neighbours have moved out, while drinking tea, opening FOA for the first time in a year and reading all the small joys from the past year

SJ: listing stuff for sale and it going within two hours for asking price. May or may not have been for more than I paid, the memory is going…

Wassup Luke!
