I’m sure he also asked if you were crazy riding a bicycle in this weather, right?

Going riding soon. Baklava weather.
BTW, been up since 4 AM, CT. Trying to recoup my 7 hours of time zone changes. Yesterday was 3 AM so I guess 4 AM is an improvement.

For the record, nothing could be further from the truth. Instant ramen noodles lack many important nutrients, like protein, fiber, vitamins A, B-12 & C, calcium, magnesium, potassium, antioxidants and phytochemicals.

Went well for being off the bike for 15-16 days. I rode Fulgaz which is my preferred program since I'm not training or running structured workouts.
Since I pay for Strava and check their performance graphs, it was interesting that they claim I lost 50 "points" on fitness but it also shows that I'm very "rested."
It will be interesting to see how Strava shows my "fitness" after today's outdoor sojourn.

And those days when the temperature didn't seem like a temperature, just a random single digit number off to the right of the time...

I used to pound ramen when I was younger because it was fast and easy. Now that I'm "older" one pack of that stuff will send me into a full-body funk for 12 hours or more. If I eat one before bed, my heartbeat will keep me awake for hours then I'll wake up the next morning in a cold sweat.

My wife's gravel bike (aka my future gravel bike) has through axles. What do I need to do to make the levers point the right way? Currently the front one points downward when fully tightened and I can't seem to align it in any other way.

Without loosening, try pulling the lever straight out and rotating - mine have a spring and teeth; I assume that most others are the same.
