Exactly. Two rides almost exactly the same, but a mile different.

We need to throw this week's leader board out because of this and my excluded walk.
The one you work at.

A friend of mine was in a blind stoker club for years. They would take young (and sometimes not young) visually impaired people for rides on their tandems. Some of them got pretty good. There is also a young woman in L.A. who owns her own tandem but can't see. She asks for people to captain for her and a friend of mine did it a few times.

Just learned back home there have been two different domestic murders this past week. One was a murder suicide, and one was just a murder. Both cases husband offed the wife.
Any chance this is a direct result of the quarantine?
Anybody looking at divorce rates right now?
In lighter news I get to go home today, have not actually gotten to do a ride in about 3 weeks so I am hoping that tomorrow morning before the rain comes I can get one in.
Fun fact since I have been back at work I have been stuck in **** weather. While at work non stop shooting approaches to minimums and moderate turbulence, (wx perfect at my house). I get home and the weather quickly turns to rain.
I blame velo for this case of terrible no good bad luck.
3 am off to work I go.

One upside to this isolation stuff is the lack of morning traffic noise. The birds sound louder.
