Bike MS: Colonial Crossroads 2017

By

I’m doing a fundraiser for MS. It is the Bike MS: Colonial Crossroads ride.
Because of scheduling conflicts I will only be doing the 1 day ride.
PLEASE help me raise a few bucks for MS.
Any donation amount accepted but donate $25 or more and I will send you any or all the TweakGuides you desire for free. Just forward your donation receipt with which guide(s) you want.
Thanks!

RIP Chuck Berry

By

If you listen to Rock & Roll in any form from any era then he has touched your life. He was one of the most influential music artists ever. Icon doesn’t even begin to describe him.
Mr. Berry, thank you for your music and for influencing the bands I love. Thank you for the good times it continues to bring.

I am so sad to hear of Chuck Berry’s passing. I want to thank him for all the inspirational music he gave to us.
He lit up our teenage years, and blew life into our dreams of being musicians and performers.
His lyrics shone above others & threw a strange light on the American dream. Chuck you were amazing & your music is engraved inside us forever.
Mick Jagger

Chuck Berry was rock’s greatest practitioner, guitarist, and the greatest pure rock ‘n’ roll writer who ever lived.

Tuesday Random Stuff…

By

It’s Patch Tuesday so look for another post this afternoon.

Win10 Ads
Everyone is pissed off that Microsoft is putting ads in Windows. IMHO it is just the latest fiasco surrounding Win10.

CCleaner Monthly Update
Version 5.28 released.
Download
Version History

Finally
Verizon managed to finally push out Android Nougat to my Galaxy S7.
The update also put in the most recent security updates (Feb. 1) which is all I really cared about.
The update broke LED notifications and I had to do a full reset to get them to work.

New Bike
Last year I had mentioned I was looking for a hybrid bike. Several of you emailed some good suggestions.
I recently bought a Cannondale Quick 3 Disc on sale for $749 at a local bike shop.
I put a phone holder, two water bottle cages, and a rear bike rack on it.  I have 2 CamelBak Podium Big Chill Insulated Water Bottles. I also got a 529 Garage Bicycle Registration Kit to help recover the bike if it is stolen.
I look forward to putting some serious miles on it once the weather breaks.
