Hiatus?
Hiatus implies an intention to return. That was never the case with me.
I was sucked back in. If nothing else the draw of BF is diabolical.

Silly freds.
You're never too young for an ebike.
I do believe mechanical doping is going to become a bigger and bigger concern for UCI officials going forward however.

Time for my retired racer ride. Hope to be done before the heat index hits 98º. Supposed to be only 91º index at the finish.

In the world of streamliner news, a woman clocked over 75 mph at Battle Mountain, NV last night.

I'm not sure this proves anything beyond the probability that you can find a 'study' to support any viewpoint:

Look at the size of those mothers! They’ve obviously been eating good for a good while.

The rain held out long enough for me to get in a ~30 mile ride - only got wet the last 2 miles or so. The Varia is... good. I'm not ready to declare it the best money that I've spend on cycling crap this year, but I might with a few more rides. One thing that I really like is that, particularly on ****ty roads, I don't feel that I need to be as conservative with picking a clean line through the cracks and potholes. One thing that I'm not so fond of is that it will occasionally drop a car from the warning track when it shadows long enough. In fairness, this typically happens when the car is close enough that it'll be on your personal radar, but still.
Worked as advertised. I've got the latest firmware on my Bolt. Cars showed up towards the bottom of the screen. Had a couple false positives but no false negatives. I didn't get a chance to see how it displays multiple cars behind me, every car this morning was solo. But it has a nice audible alert and the LEDs flash which is good because I'm not staring at my computer all the time so the audible alert is helpful.
Not sure it was worth getting up at 4:30 this morning but I'm so busy on weeknights that usually my only chance to ride, it seems.

Thanks much. There are rumors that Wahoo is working on ANT+ light control, so I hope that it's not too long. I do wonder about my desired flashing mode, off until detection, and whether that's something that could be done from the controlling head unit or whether it needs to be baked in to the light and then enabled by the head unit... Time will tell, I guess.
I had the light on during my morning ride so it never occurred to me to check the other modes.

Both. Wahoo hasn't yet added ANT+ light control. When controlled by a head unit with ANT+ lights, the 510 has another mode available: Radar On with the light off (at least that's how it works with a compatible Garmin). When you flip through the light modes with the button on the 510, the last mode puts it in standby, with both the radar and lights off, contrary to what DCRainmaker recently said (he indicated that it was radar on, light off).

In other news, I titled my ride on Strava with lyrics from "Radar Love" and even though it was certainly unimaginative, I'm disappointed that none of my Strava friends have picked up on that. Sad!
