So Many Bikes, So Little Time (Unless I Give Up My Daily Nap, Which I Refuse To Do)

As I mentioned yesterday, I've got a lot to test--and it ain't just limited to awesome stuff people send me, either.  I've also got to test out New York City's infrastructure, which is where I've been today:

See, we just got Jump bikes in the Bronx, and as the curator of the Bike Forecast it was recumbent upon me to try them out.  (If you're wondering how they are, you can head over there tomorrow to read all about it, but the short version is that they're great when they're working, which they mostly were not.)

So in summary, in order to dig my way out of the Testing Hole in which I now reside, I must:

• Install hitch rack onto The Car The Bank Owns Until I Finish Paying Them Back
• Put Jones onto hitch rack and go somewhere so I can test both all simultaneous-like
• Install new chain on Renovo so I can resume testing (final verdict pending until completion of 2018 road racing season)
• Conduct additional Drysdale testing, weather permitting (need to see how it handles "gravel" bike duties)

Oh, and at my Designated Juvenile Tester's request I've installed cyclocross tires on the Islabikes Luath 24:

(Cyclocross tires not shown because I forgot to take a pitcher.)

I then must subject him to intensive dismount/remount drills pending requisition of an appropriately loud megaphone.

Whew!

And for the commenter who mentioned my taking on an intern to help me with these duties, I've already done that in the past, and while I no doubt set my former intern on the path to success his tenure did not increase the efficiency of my operation in any way.

So you can tell the HR department to shove it.
