Number 2

This may be too much info, but you can't do #2 while wearing your motorcycle track leather pants and boots. This is because there's no flexiability due to the boots, and therefore no way to push the pants down far enough. Even after taking off the boots, it's difficult because there's not much give in the pants either due to the knee armor built into the pants.

Need more power!

Because motorcyles aren't fast enough, one of the guys at work felt the need to add some nitrous to his Harley. Okay... Harley's aren't that fast, so it probably needed it.

2 days

To get all the sand out of my ear after playing football on the beach.

Sand wears you out

Well, wears me out. Beach volleyball last night. Flag football tonight. My legs, and especially my quads, are fried. Suppose to play some tackle football on the beach tomorrow too.

Oh yeah, going up stairs with steel toe boots really lets you know how tired your legs are.

These brakes are easy!

So I had to change out the brake pads on the motorcycle, and it was actually easy to do! That's a nice change.

Two screws to take the caliper off, two screws to take out the brake pads and voila!

Another interesting thing (well, to nerdy engineers). The modern sportbike is about the closest thing you can buy off the showroom floor to being fully race prepped. Looking at the 4-piston brake calipers, the pistons are actually different sizes to provide different clamp loads. The leading one is smaller in diameter so that it doesn't bite as hard. If it did, I think it would cause the leading edge of the pad to dig in leading to uneven pad wear.

Side Specific Socks

Makes sense as your left and right feet are shaped differently.

Rockin Rocks

Went for a hike down in Palos Verdes. There's a path down the side of a cliff to get down to the water. So I was chillin and watching the waves coming in and I heard this sound. I was like.... uh, what's that? Well, basically, as the waves come in, they move all the rocks around, and then when the waves retreat, well, the rocks move around again banging each other along the way. So it makes an interesting, somewhat thunderous noise.
