Saturday, February 11 is the Full Moon Bike Swap at the Trek Superstore.
With sellers arriving at 8AM and buyers at 9AM, we should have a lot going
on!  From the Albuquerque Journal today:

The name of the swap is based on real events, not alternative facts.  Once
you have your parts and/or bicycle accessories and/or bicycles ready for
the FMBS on Friday, you can sit back and enjoy the show.

Eagle-eyed skywatchers will see a "penumbral" lunar eclipse Friday evening
during the full moon.

Not as spectacular — or noticeable — as a total lunar eclipse, this rather
subtle phenomenon occurs when the moon moves through the outer part of
Earth’s shadow (known as the penumbra), according to EarthSky.org.

The outer shadow of the Earth blocks part — but not all — of the sun's rays
from reaching the moon, making it appear slightly darker than usual.

The exact moment of the penumbral eclipse is 7:43 p.m. ET (6:43 p.m. CT,
5:43 p.m. MT and 4:43 p.m. PT), NASA said.
