. . . so when Little has wanted to do a little riding, indoors seemed like a good option.
Doesn't seem to slow him down much.

Saturday Night
Amazing how warm 15deg feels after a month of sub-zero temps.
Spent the evening in the front yard with a fire and Little wRider. Did a little driveway sledding with one of the neighbor kids.
Had a FatBack in the garage, Little was asleep and Biermag was around so I snuck out for an hour of riding in the snow. First tracks on the 3" that feel this evening.
With the clouds there was enough ambient light that there was no need for the 1,000 lumens strapped to my helmet.

Frostfitti
Some random acts of creativity I found on one of the bridges on my ride home:
Made me smile.
I think that was the point.

Screenshot and Surly Bits
Took the longer (~40min) route through the woods today to stockpile some sanity before an afternoon of staring at a screen that looks like this:
Also gave me the opportunity to mash a little bit on a new to me Tuggnut I scored off of ebay.
I'm not a little guy, so it's nice to have a little extra peace of mind when mashing the dinglespeed up hills.
I had already tested its ability to open beverages, and I'm pleased to report it did a fine job holding my wheel in place.

Surly's Ideatron
So by this morning I had heard back from Eric, one of the fine folks at SurlyBikes, regarding my 26+ suggestion:
Nthn,
Your idea has been submitted to the Ideatron 8000.
We’ll see where it goes from there.
Thanks,
Eric Sovern
Surly Bikes
Obviously I'm simply overjoyed that Surly would ever think that something I suggested is worth submitting to any Ideatron, much less to the Ideatron 8000.
Heck, I'm impressed that anyone from Surly ever took the time to write me back when they could be doing much more important things with their day, like riding Krampi.
Mission 26+ may never go any further than this, but I will forever hold on to a small glimmer of hope rooted in the words "We'll see where it goes from there." and I thank Eric for that.
