Why aren't there windmills in that godforsaken place? They could power DougRNS's laser machine.

Construction of one was halted due to the sage grouse.

'Sokay. I don't even have a place for the one I already have. I'm hanging it up on the Ritchey's hook while the Ritchey does trainer duty. Where in hell would I put ANOTHER bike?
Probably in my brand new studio apartment, if I bought it. At least she'd probably let me keep the Greyhound....

Nice ride today, just two of us. We scrapped the plan to go east because of the wind and scrapped the plan B of doing a big-ish climb because his legs were tired from 6 days of riding. We circulated the bike paths for 4+ hours and encountered a friend who I have known for 50 years. He just got his first clipless pedals @ 69 years old.

Rumour has it that Fry's Electronics is calling it quits tonight at midnight.
I was surprised to see our local one still open a couple days ago.

No. I didn't win. I got dropped. But guys riding @ 130 watts per hour just rode away from me like I was nailed to the road.
That is my highest ever watts per hour. 279 watts per hour average. At one point they were 1:50 in front of me. I managed to bring them back to 20 seconds at one point .
so thats what I just can't understand. How can I get dropped when I'm pushing more than double the wattage of the weekest guy on the ride?
