Why would it suck to be a pro cyclist?

Have a drink after dinner and you're removed from the Vuelta a Espana. Poor Andy and Stuart. I wonder what they were drinkin'. Well, I guess they could have as many drinks as they like now. I'd call that a good problem.

repairs already?

man, i just finished this project. or at least it seems like i just finished it.

the original clear finish i put on my built-up plywood stair stringers is toast. i don't think it had any anti-UV balls at all. so this weekend i did some disassembly and got started with a few coats of paint. exterior grade semi gloss. we'll see if it lasts any longer than my original work. i hope so. i don't want to be tearing the stairs apart every few years.
