Farewell 223

So long, #223.  Time for you to join your friends on the shop wall. 

We didn't do so hot this year, but I sure had a good time.

I can not smell that which smells bad

My sense of smell is kind of off.  It works fine for just about everything but really nasty smells. 

Be it poo, dead things, throw up or mold, it just doesn't bug me very much.  Need someone to smell the milk carton to see if it's still good?  No problem.  I can still kinda smell it, but it's not going to bug me.

I believe this "gift" was the result of a summer fighting forest fires a long time ago.  I was doing "mop up" and got a huge blast of steam in my face.  Ever since that summer, several bad smells don't smell so bad to me.  Maybe it's because nothing smells bad compared to smoke so thick you have to dig a hole in the ground to breath, or maybe I received some olfactory damage.   Who knows.

So if we're hanging out and you let one fly, I wouldn't worry about it. 

Tubeless Cyclocross Writings

I've received a few emails about it, so here's an official response: 

I'm putting together a more permanent article containing everything I've written about running tubeless cyclocross.  I'll include tire reviews, too.  I'll have it up soon, after I get some real work done first!

Thanks for all the interest.
