Same here. There's a humongous horse farm adjacent to where I shoot birds frequently and I've never noticed any smell from them.
Cows are a different story. I remember driving through Nebraska where clearly the whole county, possibly the entire state, was stank. |

Who makes that jersey?
If mine, are you bein' funny? It's the Rapha Pro Training Jersey that I picked up in NYC the other day. This was the first ride in it - love it, worth the extra 30 bucks over the Core, though it doesn't have the little zipped pocket, which is a bummer. |

I'll bet the HRV is the same. I guess if it blows up it doesn't matter where it is!

Fortunately just an irritated throat, but no visible sting, stinger, or swelling.
Someone else will be taking the podium this week though. #prolly |

Half-swallowed and them spat out dead what may have been a bee on the morning ride. Throat is now crazy sore; sitting in the ENT waiting room now to see if everything is ok. Fricking Mondays.
Got three stings from an unidentified Hymenoptera on my left tit on Thursday. Hurt like the devil, but still better than the 2-week itching agony of the oak mites. |

Maybe you just don't get that close to the stables... I rarely get a whiff of these guys cuz the stables are over 500' off of the MUP, even though there are often a couple horses up near the MUP. https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...8151ed35c3.png These horsies on the other hand, unless there's a pretty good breeze blowing out of the west, you'll get some aroma. If the air is thick and still and they haven't shovelled out the stalls recently, I almost throw up in my mouth a little bit sometimes. Of course they have 10 horses on a half acre, which sure doesn't help. https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...f291a3a261.png |

Yes, a joke.
:p |
Horse manure smells far less than cow or dog or cat. It’s not even close. Maybe city folks will be offended regardless, but it shouldn’t be all that foul.

Cow **** doesn't really smell that bad either, but feed lots smell bad. |

I don't think the placement of the tank matters much on modern cars. I don't like the idea of servicing the fuel pump through a hole in the floor, though.

Anybody have any fitbit knowledge they would like to drop?
My charge 4 went blank last night. It was an effort to make me miss my ride with Whyfi. Anywho, I’ve tried everything the manual says and I can’t get the screen back on. I know it’s still “alive” becuase when I plug it in it vibrates. But it won’t do anything else or connect to my phone. |

I've read tales of folks cutting holes in the floor of minivans like mine to get to the fuel pump because they didn't want to have to drop the fuel tank to get to it. Pretty crazy.
When the fuel pump won't pump we bang on the tank with a mallet to see if we can get it started. When I hit this guys tank I could see the fuel pump module jumping up and banging into the trap door he made. He wasn't able to reinstall the lock ring. But when I dropped the tank and took it apart I found why it wouldn't run. He had cut the bonded plastic lines off of the original pump and put in some aftermarket thing with hose clamps. $900 later he was on his way. Some of our pump modules come with a redesigned connector which you must splice into the harness in place of the old connector. This provides ample opportunity for the home mechanic to require a tow to the dealer after his repair. They sometimes run the 12v to the level sensor or just hook up the fuel pump backward. It's weird the first time you go to check fuel pressure and there is suction instead of pressure. |

Tried that. Its silly, on my the button isn’t really a button in the sense you can’t see it. It senses pressure and functions like a button. So now that the screen is blank I don’t know if that part is even functioning. |

So we're comparing aromas of various manure.
