bike 180 miles away on a farm on muddy gravel roads (and in need of a valve check/adjustment)

I'll be back this weekend, but the gravel is going to take awhile to become rideable.

Eh.. it was beautiful out while I was in class today, but when I stepped out it was already drizzling.. then when I actually hopped on the bike and rounded the corner it started pouring. Yay.

It's always that same road I run into downpours on.. maybe I should find a different way home? >.>

LMK how much of a pita the valve check is, not near 12k yet but hope to get a lot closer this season.

Will do. I'm over (14k+) but didn't want to stop riding during the season, then got busy...

Here's hoping I can find a cheap shim kit and my service manual!
Stupid packing to move...
