In what's surely a sign of a creatively unfulfilling month, here are my thoughts about a few recent purchases:
-**[Aventon Pace 5 REC E-Bike][2]:** we ordered Claire a new bike after [hers was stolen last month][3]. This thing is sweet, some nice upgrades from the previous version. I'm jealous of some of the tech, and especially the power to get up some of the bigger hills around here. At the same time, I'm pretty chuffed with how much mileage I've gotten out of my low-tech, single-speed e-bike; there's something very pure and utilitarian about it that I appreciate.

-I put it away for a few days until I stumbled on [this post][14], which described a few alternate firmwares and let me to [Inx][15], which is much smoother and could actually load my book, though it still struggled on the pages with photos. I printed a [simple case][16] in my favorite dark gray, giving it a little bit of protection and, again, putting my stamp on it. Then I found [some software][17] to convert EPUB files to the device's native format (and even made a [simple bug fix][18]), which has resolved the image issues and improved the reading experience overall.

Now things are working well -- I'm happy with the device and I'm finally making good progress in _Every Tool's a Hammer_. It's nice to have something to grab when I'm looking for a distraction that isn't my phone. It's neat that there's such a robust community of folks making things for this device, but I'd be hard pressed to recommend it to someone who doesn't want to tinker.
