It's going to rain tomorrow and I think people are too burned out and worried about traffic to run our TT anyway. Might try it anyway on Fri because I'm in the best shape I've been in all year. Then I'm off the bike for two weeks. All of this seems more significant to me because I'm old.

Overall it's not a bad place to live IMO. It is better than it was when you were here, I believe. Nowadays it's got the same issues that many cities around its size have, with it's own dose of issues from having been a big industrial city in the past but now a lot of those jobs are gone.
Wife has been here for her entire life, though, and understandably wants to GTFO.

When you bump down your time, and feel good about your ride, that really is a win. TT's are insidious. I've never really enjoyed them, nor have I looked forward to them, then we made some gains. Though I may not enjoy the ride, I'm now anticipating next season on the TT bike.

I can't ride again until Saturday. No need to be concerned. FWIW I am aiming for something resembling a century, and about half that on Sunday.
