Bonus Day Off Skate
08/22/2023
I booked Monday off to recover from ArcTanGent, then forgot I'd done it and didn't realise until just before I left. Tabitha cycled; I skated. It was a very nice time. Lovely weather; not too busy. We ended up doing about 18km I think - the skate workout on Apple Watch doesn't collect GPS data. I feel like I already knew that but it still annoys me.
After at least a year (actually I think it's two) on the shelf, a lot of my bearings were in a pretty bad way so I stripped everything down, soaked in isopropanol, and stuck some chain lube in there and now they run great. New bearings cost a lot more than I expected. I probably need new wheels soon too.
Skitching on Tabitha's bike saddle. Never done this before but it does make things significantly easier.
