Hockey is still happening for us. There have been 32 guys in the local beer leagues that have tested positive in the past couple weeks so we've had some changes like no spectators, limited time in the locker room, masks except when on the bench or ice, etc. We get updates from the league every time someone tests positive and which games they played in the past two weeks so we know who was around.

None of the guys that had it were hospitalized, none had any major issues, and all have been fine within a few days.  I've spoken with probably half of them and they said it feels like bad allergies. I'm guessing it's our highly developed immune systems from putting on all the disgusting, bacteria and virus filled gear that smells like death a few times a week!

That is F'ed up. I wonder how many total people have been infected by this cluster.

Some good stuff in here!  Refreshingly funny and creative.  Big props to @RonSurly and @crazyt  And Ron, I think I've finally put together who you are now....the location and fondness for RHR gave it away.  I think?

Yep. That is the man. I finally pinged him one day thinking it had to be him.

Seton Hospitals in Williamson currently have ZERO Covid patients.

*shocked*

WillCo is reporting 82 hospitalizations. Probably just making shit up.

Like this? I have some for you if you want to make the drive. 
 

Thanks AB! I think I found some but may try yours if they don't fit. I appreciate the offer.

Looking for 1 or preferably 2 inner chainring bolts for an old 9 speed XT triple if anyone has any laying around in their parts bin.

That is the 1 piece bolt that fastens the smallest ring to the spider.

Gack. 80 degrees at 7 am.  

This. I did 2.5-3 hrs of the tough stuff yesterday and today and I was completely blown afterwards both days. Miserable conditions, or else I am a puss (or a little of both). 🤔

A friend donated to me this morning. Looking to keep it all in the Family this afternoon.

Nice! I like that place and love variety packs.

Youz gotz skills!

Will you dump it in someone's yard I dislike?

I met a guy from Waco Sunday to sell some MTB shoes. He was probably 50. I put my mask on as I got out of my truck. He was walking up and as he got pretty close he said I guess I should put my mask on. Then he said he had already had COVID so he didn't need to worry about it.

This is awfully tasty. I really try to keep it local though. Turns out this is part of the growing Oskar Blues conglomerate, which is a negative for me. But, it may still be part of the rotation.

As it should be. And amazingly....millions aren't dying.

Yep, only approaching a measly 1/2 million so far. No need for anyone to inconvenience themselves.

We are actually part of a global corporation (5k+). The Austin management seems to get it but we take orders from Corporate. Our CEO hates WFH.

Even though we didn't miss a beat transitioning during our busiest month ever (March) and have been extremely successful in moving virtually our entire fairly large office (300ish employees) home, our company is aggressively trying to get everyone back in the office in phases starting after July 4th. We just recently moved into an open office environment with exactly 6' between most employees and only chest high walls.

I am curious what other companies are doing or planning to do in the short term for these types of businesses that can be effectively done remotely. Things are obviously subject to change but I am curious what others are hearing/seeing at this stage.

How was Ruidoso? Just driving through, that area seems like it would be ripe for some killer trails, but all I've been able to find are flow-type trails. Some time on Google and Youtube reveals that there used to be a couple of good ones, but a forest fire wiped them out years ago.

I liked Grindstone Lake. Typical mountainous XC riding. Was last there 3 years ago. 27 mile route with about 3000' climbing. I'd do it again for sure. Lake to swim in afterwards.

A Hops n Grains Lupulin Rodeo IPA sure tastes good immediately after 4 hours on the BCGB:
