Just curious, since you have no front brake is the front hub rim brake specific so that the spokes are perfectly symmetrical?

It's a normal disc brake wheel just without the brake or disc mounted.

"Off-season" is in full swing.
Spent close to 6 hours in the new boat Saturday. Started in that storm and the headwind was pretty brutal. Got nice once I hit the bay but once I hit the channel the tide pushed me back into Old Bridge. Good times.
Sunday I hit RV for a loop around the lake just to check it off. Not too Boatventurey, but it's pretty.

It’s cool to see the Raritan paddles. Definitely brings me back to the old days of living in South River and Sayreville.
Have you ever given thought to paddling the length of the South River? Basically from the bottom of Old Bridge Turnpike out to the Raritan, or vice versa. It’s heavily tidal, even at the bridge on Old Matawan Road, so I imagine that would be a pretty important consideration.

digging the new kayak looks like some great trips. Not sure how much time you have sent on Rv but it can get very boat ventury very quickly. Been out there many times on my boat when things got bad very quick and once while In The kayak that I barely made it back to the ramp. The wind always pushes you to the far side of the lake Great pics keep it up

I have looked at it but haven't done it yet. I just found a ramp in Edison to get in closer to the split to do it as a loop with the canal. I think the next thing I want to do is go straight through the Bay to Sandy Hook. It's kinda scary out in the Channel but my new boat is pretty bright compared to the Carolina so I feel a little better.

I saw they also just redid Woodbridge as a cement park. I'm gonna try to get over there this week.

I'm not doing BWR. I'll be "off the bike" until 2nd week of August and then I'll prep for Marji Gesick.

Hit the new Woodbridge Park yesterday morning. It's so dope. I was real tired so I just rode around and hard parked on all the ramps. 15 hours of "off-season" in 5 days. Rest day today and tomorrow more than likely.
Sunday I'm meeting my co-worker doing the AT and doing 2 days with them. Planning a couch to 40 miler. Should go well.

I stumbled on the Adventure Stache podcast while riding, and Payson McElveen interviewed Will Loevner, who came in Second at the Unbound XL with a broken arm/hand! Rode downhills with one arm and just pushed through.

Saw Sully's IG about you guys meeting up with him. NY section of AT is absolutely brutal. Just nonstop up and down for no real reason.

I did 11 miles and can't feel my anything. Max is so skinny and fast now. 102 days will do that I guess?

I saw him while I was out on course watching but didn't realize he was broken. The joys of being in your 20's!!

Trail legs for sure. I was laboring compared to the 60 year old thru hikers out there. And the impeccable diet of ramen, instant potatoes and knorr rice sides daily.
