I could probably blame Jadesfire for much of our rain.

Another tidbit from my ride today:
I discovered that the saddle currently on the SLT very much encourages a forward pelvic tilt. Unfortunately I cannot maintain that position for very long. It even feels like I would need a much longer stem, even though I am already feeling way out in front.
Lots of pressure on my hands, especially out of the saddle.
Since I was thinking about it, right after my ride I got on my Trek and was really shocked at how different it felt. Almost no pressure on my hands and the saddle is instantly comfortable without having to worry about proper pelvic tilt.
Im apparently not as fast on the Trek though...

On the subject of hand washing. I have not left the house for three days except to go riding. But they want me to wash my hands every twenty minutes. Somebody please explain this to me.

It's hot in Thailand too, and they are going through the roof.
There are humans to kill. That seems to be enough.
I did leave my bike out in the hot sun for an hour, before putting it away, as a means of disinfecting it

Yup. Oddly, the one in Subway (back when I could eat there) usually have more kick than the ones I can get in the grocery stores in Texas. Many of those have some flavor, but scarcely more heat than a poblano.
