Not sure how long it has been doing that so I took it off the wall and replaced the batteries and I still like the idea that it keeps all of my settings even when the batteries are changed&#8230;so that took all of 2 minutes and will probably be good til I die&#8230;I did get to ride through the construction work this morning and that was a good thing but it looks like they still have a couple of months to go to finish it since they have just done the first layer of asphalt and 1\/4 mile of the trail is gone still&#8230;it looks like they are going to shrink the road a bit and take away the parking spots that were on the north side of Lakeshore and replace them with another trail which makes no sense&#8230;I&#8217;ll bet the people who live there are not happy with losing their on street parking&#8230;I did have a flat back tire when I got on the bike yesterday so I put a new tube in it and then checked the old one to find the leak in the downstairs sink&#8230;but I couldn&#8217;t find it so I put more air in it and set it in the bike room just to see if it would hold air&#8230;as of this morning it is still aired up so I guess the valve must not have been tight since I took it out to let the air out for changing the rear tire&#8230;so now I still have 4 good tubes and that should get me through a few years&#8230;okay, need to continue to take it easy and read a bit&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well&#8230;after feeling so darn worn out the past few days, I decided to take it easy today&#8230;and I think I may have a cold&#8230;at least that&#8217;s what I feel and have a bit of a sore throat&#8230;I even took it easy on the bike this morning to try to heal up my legs&#8230;a funny thing &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/?p=35552\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Going to take it easy today&#8230;<\/span> <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[41],"class_list":["post-35552","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-my-life","tag-life"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35552","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=35552"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35552\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":35553,"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35552\/revisions\/35553"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=35552"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=35552"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=35552"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
