Sunday morning and the end days of a long February. It's sunny, the birds are chirping and the snow is starting to melt early morning. It seems like we have turned a corner. This past Friday I finally went in for that eye surgery. The cataract had formed right over my left iris making it impossible to see anything out of that eye. It also taxed the other eye and gave me headaches all the time. It was nearly impossible to get on a computer or laptop and do any sort of typing.
This is my first try at typing, just a couple of days later, and it is amazing how different it is. I'm thankful to everyone for the support and well wishes.
I had not made any goals because of this situation. No races or rides planned yet. As usual my main focus will be commuting to work and everywhere else when the weather gets decent. Tandem rides with my wife and my daughter. Gathering and riding with friends I have not seen in a while. Visits with friends I have missed in the couple of past years.
The shop will start to get busy as soon as the weather cracks. I have preordered and received some essentials. We still have a hard time getting a lot of shimano parts like chains and cassettes and shifting components. It will be a while until this market straightens out. So,if you have a running bike be happy. Keep your drivetrain clean and lubed. Keep your bike clean and make things last. We are not out of the woods yet.

Be well, my friend!
