I luckily had a bungee cord (not pictured) in the bucket to secure it a bit. Made it home in one piece!

27” Thunderbolt Display

I’ve been wanting a cheap used 27” Thunderbolt Display and this one included the $50 TB2/TB3 adapter for $100. Problem is I had to get it from Richmond, CA to SF.

Solution was to zip tie a 20” wide oven rack to the Blackburn rear rack to make a wider, more stable platform. Shock insulation was provided by a backpack and bathroom microfiber rug. Tie downs were two old inner tubes. Took SF Bay Ferry $5.20 each direction. Slow biked the 5mi home to avoid potholes.

Old tubes and tie knots

Wanted to share this, because I always been so happy about how well old bike tubes work for tying up stuff, and even better when I started using tie knots for them. Almost endless supply for free ☺️.

Beefiest Lumber Haul Yet

Saw a sweet deal on a 2 pack of 12 foot 2x12s. Luckily, our daughter is always game for shenanigans 😂
