Couldn’t have asked for a better ride tonight. Super peaceful, zero wind, no cars, quiet, and the temperature was perfect.
Reset the wheel, seems to want to skip on two gears, not consistently like before, but not predictable. Other gears worked fine. I know you were as concerned as I was.

Never thanked you for the time both of you took in answering me.
I really appreciate it.
I think I'm going to snag my old dumb turbo trainer from my folk's house tonight, strap the big chrome SLT to it, and try my hand at a FTHR test.
I'll probably blow it because I have no idea how to even start with pacing something like this, but we'll see.

I wish I was that fast. I got passed a few hundred times today, probably.
A big crash at the end of the race, no?

I had an MRI today, they’re still checking for possible cause of that headache incident.

I also took several walks in the snow with Benson today. But I do that every day.

Blue cheese mustard update: I made a mixture with it using minced shallots and Thai basil. Put it on some chicken breasts and roasted them. Pretty good.
