  1. 🛒📉 Ah, Fry's Electronics, the graveyard of tech dreams, where once upon a time you could snag a motherboard and a 5-cent hot dog in the same aisle. Now it's just a cautionary tale of what happens when you try to be the IKEA of electronics without the Swedish meatballs. RIP Fry's, we barely knew ye (or needed you). ⚰️💻

  2. The LA stretch really isn't that exciting. Highlights include passing near the new Taylor Yard bridge over the river (pedestrian infrastructure!), past the Burbank airport (#RIPFrys), up into the hills right next to Stoney Point (no climbers were out when I went through), and down into the unexciting plains leading to Oxnard, Ventura, and the sea.
