My Bicycle Musings

Did not ride this weekend, but virtuously set the correct Daylight Time on the bike computers today. Also checked the Axiom A08 on the Jamis for the correct wheel size, as there was some confusion the other day, due to tiny buttons, holding said buttons down an INSTANT too long, and bad eyes, on just what-the-heck I was doing (trying to reset the trip odometer). I thought maybe I had messed up the wheel circumference setting. It DID seem like I was getting places a little too quickly, or rather they wuz closer than they wuz before.

So I printed out the manual at a place that had a laser printer, but I couldn't see the wheel size chart too good, so I downloaded the manual at home (AGAIN, since I STILL don't have all the files that were on my desktop back from my computer guy (But thanks again for the upgrade to XP!) yet), found Adobe Reader in the old programs folder, open the manual and blew it up to 200 percent so I could READ the darn thing!

After all that the wheel circumference was already set correctly...

So, I am still confused about the time change, lo these many years.

The saying is: Spring Forward, Fall Back.

It's Spring, so what WAS six in the morning is now seven. So it's getting light even earlier. And getting dark earlier. So I don't need the mighty headlight till, like, Fall? Wait a minute, it WAS just getting light at six, which is now seven, so I'll be getting up at six, which was five. So I WILL need my light now.. My head hurts...

Since this is our rainy season I haven't been riding too much, and it's goonna rain tomorrow, too. That's my excuse, and I'm sticking with it! So there!
