But, maybe that's the one you want to use today.

maybe- but it would have netted me 0

This “spring” weather is irritating. 25 degrees with 13+ winds. I thought I was done indoors

So my mechanic looked at the Saturn and said it was a bad battery. He said they put it on the tester and it failed.

I won't argue, but when it was not starting yesterday it was cranking like normal for 15-20 seconds at a time, it just would not catch. That does not sound like a bad battery to me.

Oh well, the battery was pretty old anyway so I will keep my fingers crossed the problem does not recur.

Google tells me that the average lifespan for a car battery is 3-5 years. Really?

The Saturn's first battery lasted 15 years, and apparently the second one lasted 9.

Three sounds too short but maybe I am :50:

An unbelievable game. Epic.

St Peters v. Purdue was another epic game. The year is starting out right, epic events don't just grow on trees.

There's a reason seasonal roads don't open until mid-April around here.

Yep. My wife and I have been talking for a week or so about setting the trainers up again. The weather forecast for the next week has made me decide to set things up again.

The Pelican Brief?

1 out of 3 Dougs surveyed don't wordle.

My ride on Sunday was ~25° and windy, today's was still windy, almost 10 degrees warmer, but somehow more miserable. I did re-up on Zwift for one more month, but I'm having a hard time getting back on the trainer after a taste of freedom.

Oh, I stopped off at my LBS for some brake pads and saw a this wonderful stack of bikes. Which one has bampilot06's name on it?

Also saw a sweet cruiser by a local builder that usually does more road/gravel -

Interesting saddle wedge (?) thing going on.

I think that's in the background.

There's a cabinet and bare bike frame hanging in the background, if that's what you're talking about.

It lines up nicely.

I could live with the one on the top.

I put my Propel on the trainer this morning but just sat looking at it in despair. I'm going to bundle up and go out in a few minutes and fight the 20 mph wind.

3 Echoes and a ??

Also- I dig those tires

New replacement battery's suck. Cheap chinessium garbage. 4 years out of the 2 I put in the Camaro, 3 out of the one in the firebird. Avalanche got a new one last year, 2nd tier $190.00. I got light headed from that one.

The one on the bottom is the Rapha Edition. I think that it's an Echo as well, but I could be wrong.

Edit: looks like I was wrong - it's an Able.

You are a bigger man than I am. No way , no how buster! It's colder than frig out there and windy too. In the words of our dearly departed Pope." Mother nature can bite me".

I really want to get the 09 Tarmac out and test out the new shifter/gear combination..... just not bad enough to freeze.

Lol. I didn't even notice the raised chainstay on the Rapha, not in person and not in the photo, until now. :rolleyes:

The Echo is a sharp looking bike. bampilot06 should grab one
