What did YOU do today?

[Curious Hound]

Bought an exercise bike. I've never had a recumbent bike before. But have wanted one for decades. There IS learning curve. It's not as easy as the one at my cardiac rehab class. This one falls over.

There's one about 25 miles clear across Denver. With traffic that's probably at least 3 gallons of gas.

Totally worth it. They have a massive rotating wall of filament and pros who can help.

Was never much of a Brittney Spears fan, but one of her song titles is ringing true for working on my car right now. Oops!... I did it again

Carried forward pressing my steering knuckle back together without the brake shield this afternoon. Got both knuckles installed, still need to hit with the torque wrench, but everything is at an initial round of german torque. Popped the rotors back on, so that I could torque everything, pop the calipers on and finish torquing tomorrow/Saturday. Well about half way home I realized that I never reinstalled the snap ring in the problematic side. Guess next step is to pull that knuckle back off, and do it again. At least I don't have to press the hub and bearing back out for that.

Damn, bad luck. Sometimes you get so stressed out about something, and the more you concentrate, the more it flies off the handle. Been there, done that, too many times.

But take comfort in the old saying: “Any job worth doing is worth doing twice!“

Yesterday was fetching the radius arm mounts off my donor cab and frame for the F-150. The ones on the donor were original (still riveted on) and look like brand new. My F-150 has just rusted out the replacement set of mounts so that tells you how clean my donor parts are, lol. I’m not worried about taking these off the donor, when I rebuild the truck, I’m not going to use stock mounts anyway, going to long arm it like my Choptop and 88.
