@SKT thanks man. The first day was really hot so we would dunk the bandanas in ice water and wear them to cool down. Came in handy for sure.

Spent the weekend at 3 day festival. Highlights for me were The Black Keys, Geese (insanely good set), Passion Pit, Atmosphere, and The Strokes. We have been taking the kids for the past 2 years to expose them to live music and it’s become a family tradition.

My only band shirts. I had many more as kid but lost them to time. The Megadeth one is a collab with MMA outfitter Half Sumo, who make awesome stickers.

@FlavourFade I watched that video. Sounds crazy to have to do that

I decided to go 10.5 and see if they fit. My instep is 10.5” and in tired of long break in periods with my footwear. Freenote Cloth offers penalty free refunds so if I get it wrong I can try a different size and only pay shipping.

Excited to join the engineer boot club. I picked 634 and 888 denim for my next round and think engineers will compliment those cuts pretty well. I also needed something a little sleeker for work and it seemed like John Lofgren was the way to go.

Looking at the JL Engineers in Natural CXL. Is the consensus to go 1/2 size down from Brannock? I have E width feet. Also wondering about how they age in case anyone has some photos they are willing to share.

Paid the UPS fee today. About $2 less than the original cost of shipping. I would have ate the cost either way because the bandana design is so good. Big thanks to IH Germany for looking out for us.

I've been following this guy for a little while. His live act is very angry, reminds me of Sam Kinison.

Instant grab. Glad to hear shipping fees are waived too! Thanks IH Germany.

@Denimhead-0 couldn’t agree more. I’ve got 3 out of 4 in my household riding on their own now. Just one more to go…

15 miles of single track today. Rode with my 5 year old daughter riding in a seat on the top tube.

15 miles of single track today. My daughter rode shotgun with me.

Pat Burtchers economic plans make sense to me

Happy 4th of July to those who celebrate

@NickD I lived in the Pacific Northwest for a decade and most home didn’t have AC there for what I imagine are the same reasons as Europe - historically mild temperatures most of the summer. Then we had heat waves with 105F and would bake in our brick house. Luckily we had a pool we could jump in to cool off, which we did often.

Glad to know there are places to escape the heat. Sounds like it’s been brutal over there.

@Go-For-Chill Bummer about the trip but I suppose it’s better to have a heart attack close to home. Hoping the recovery goes well.

On vacation and found affiliate gym 30 mins from the in-laws. IHE-45 standing in for the IHE-49 this week.
