Not for what current seekers want. So they're going to the horse store. Or dubious doctors.

Nope.

Hydroxycloroquine = Ivermectin. Now it all makes sense.

It's a win for the mighty Pirates.

​​​​​​​post #6141 conclusively confirms that it is.

I haven't started on dog drugs. Dog food on the other hand...

Hey datlas have you had a patient ask you about Ivermectin?

A few times. I have told them its value for COVID is not well established and I am not comfortable ordering it for them.

well that’s depressing. Looks like either wilier won’t be available until may next year. I have one bike shop hunting down a frame for me but with them building it, it’s going to exceed the cost. They offered sram red axs and enve wheels for 5 percent off but I think that will bring it to 10,000 or more. Wilier USA advertises di 2 for 9,000, however if I could get it with sram force it would be 8,000. I even am now leaning towards the zero SL. With sram or chorus it would be 7,000 which would leave money over for a computer, power meter and trainer. Unfortunately I can’t find one anywhere.

Not that I need to rush, but getting permission from the wife one has to act before she changes her mind.

Allied echo interest me a lot, just doesn’t have the aero I was hoping for, but maybe that’s not as important? Thoughts?


Have you looked at WrenchScience?

We lost a beloved outside counsel from Detroit last year before vaccines were available.

Very dubious. Sad.

Nice call.

Other than Excel, my first look is always the R&A Closeout section. There are deals to be had, but it appears they've stripped all the closeouts of the group sets. A sign of the times. Of course, they do have a decent selection of built up bikes too.

He should move to the car forums.

That’s so weird, when I looked the other day I could not find all the options listed.

Thank you.

Looks like the switch the wheels out though on both the filante slr, and the zero sl. They throw shimano rs wheels on it for some reason, will have to ask.

When perusing the netz afew months ago, there seemed to be several Giant bike shops that have small parts like seatpost wedges, rubber covers, etc. That may have changed by now. Haven't looked recently.

It does bother me that these ISPs with special wedges and parts could render a frame completely useless if a small plastic piece broke or got lost.

There is a Saturn forums, in case anyone is wondering.

I just posted in there yesterday about changing the manual transmission fluid. The owner's manual says change at 30K and never again. So I am at 190K and last change was 160K ago. Works fine. But apparently that may not be correct?

I hate strip zoning where subdividers are allowed to build on lots adjacent to a rural highway. Riding along, I would sometimes grumble under my breath. Somebody asked me what was the problem and I mentioned that every driveway means there are 2.2 more vehicles.

I'll bet the 1K TT really blows your mind. :)
