This was intended to be a light workout day, and it worked out that way. I did go for a longer than usual walk through the neighborhood in the morning, then the rest of the day was light duty. I rode over to Auto Zone in Escondido and got some motor oil for the scooter, then changed the oil when I got home. It went pretty well, no major issues. Later in the afternoon, I drove to Von's and got some beer for after Saturday's ride, then I cleaned off the rotors and brake pads on my front brake, including using a tire lever to try and push the pistons back. It seemed to give me a clear, free-rotating wheel, but we will see how it works on the ride.
I also finished Chaos Kings. It got long-winded and repetitive in the end, the author seemed like he was trying to bring other high-volatility events (global warming, COVID-19, crypto, etc.) into the book, but he didn't give them as much attention as the treatment of Marc Spitznagel, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, and their risk mitigation-based hedge funds. I started Walter Isaacson's Elon Musk, and so far it looks like Isaacson lives up to his reputation of being an excellent biographer.
