By the time days get longer, I will have scouted out some routes for afternoon weekday rides on dirt roads. When it gets hot, I'll roll out pre-dawn...

I’m not even talking about exhausting all doses available and gambling on timing of a second. The CADPH is clear with their language: 3.75MM *full...

Which ones are you talking about?

I'll remember this video when I have trouble falling asleep at night.:cool:

This describes my situation perfectly. My fitness is essentially zero at the moment, my endurance is pretty much gone and I struggle to get my HR...

I feel like the women's MTB world has its act together better than the women's road world (not referencing the UCI here, just the riders and teams).

Yes, and then TELL people this is the plan. The communication has been atrocious on so many levels. If there’s no second dose for me because they are...

There are more issues than one may anticipate. We have severe flooding in many areas of the UK, including York. "Wrexham council leader Mark...

My fitness was gone by December. With the Lupus and stopping my daily Meloxicam, I was in extreme discomfort until mid December when I started seeing...

I don't remember for sure but I believe you could do it from either direction. One end or the other might be easier to work with depending on the...

My reading of footprints and tea leaves is that the smart people in the know who are running this with appropriate professionalism are not expecting...

Why is 6 afraid of 7? Because 7 8 9.

One thing they could not handle was dumping the clutch at relatively high revs. The helical drive gear would spit out the distributor, and the...

I had a buddy with a yellow super beetle. The heater channels were rusted out so he blanked them off and ran a hair dryer hose up from the exhaust...

Glad he is doing well Bill.

I didn't know Niner are out of Fort Collins. This is an interesting 853 with a 2.6 front / 2.4 rear.

With Trump gone, Morrison is going to have do something other than sit on his hands. Covid saved him from an extistential crisis on climate change...

Brexit was for me very much regretted but, until yesterday, rather a theoretical concept. I have just had to pay £92 taxes and import charges to the...

That would require Scotty from marketing to have a sense of shame. Not a highly valued attribute with the marketing team.

You are awesome Joosttx We should all be trying this hard.

See if you can find her interview with Anderson Cooper tonight - and their discussion of her afterward. She gives me a lot of hope for the future....

This is the song I think of with a very close lyric. I'll have to check out "Loser" by Beck. I liked the song, but I'm always slow on lyric...

I was referred to a cardiologist this last summer as my GP decided she heard a “murmur”, long story short I apparently am showing calcification of...

I could go for that. I'm eyeballing the Black Mountain Cycles La Cabra for similar "roads that are not roads" drop bar 29er duty but find myself...

Amanda Gorman was amazing! Her words were powerful and the way she spoke them made her the star of the inauguration. i was really impressed.

Shit made me cry. My wife saw me and asked me what was wrong with me. Thanks a lot for embarrassing me in front of my family, Trod Harland.

Oh man, I will have to re-watch in French. Thanks for the info.

They had not heard but were very excited when I told them. Thx

Super Serotta find, Mr. Clean! I put this photo of my 2013 Ottrott up across the hall as well. I rode it for about 2.5 hours the other day in the...

Always nice to see bicycle content here. I did find that quite interesting

That was beautiful to watch live this morning. And to watch again now. Thank you.

I don't know about that. There was a faster Beetle at some point a friend's kid had that was all rusted out to where the front fenders would flap in...

Beetles are the most uncomfortable, slow, miserable cars ever. They are reliable, i give you that.

I love single cabins.

Same crime on fed and state level? If so one pardon should work but i know nothing of the US system.

Totally agree. What I don’t understand is the inconsistency in the overthink. I think the overthink is creating some of the problems. Why not do all...

I agree. I've been saying the same thing for at least a week. The goal is to get this into as many arms as quickly as possible and on average to have...
