50 fully loaded miles tomorrow. And I think I’m going to have a headwind. My longest ride this year has been 30 with only limited weight. Ugh.

I have an alarm clock on the nightstand that is permanently set to ring at 6:30, but the clock is set ahead something like 20 minutes. The problem is the thing is so difficult to change that I just say "F it." If I need to get up at a different time, I use the phone.

Now we're talking about alarm clocks.

SMFH Owning an alarm clock is as bad as having a newspaper subscription. |
My alarm didn’t go off this morning. I was suppose to ride to Newport News to join the Squirel Scalpers. That requires waking up at 330 and being on the road by 415. My fitbit decided sleep was more important.

That's exactly what they do. Yes, people could pay to fix them after warranty, but by then they are pushed to buy an upgrade since the old one's performance degrades over time due to software upgrades consuming resources. I have a houseful of iPhones, and have witnessed it first hand. But then again, all cell phone manufacturers do the same thing.
What Is “Planned Obsolescence,” and How Does It Affect My Devices? (howtogeek.com) Just because I buy for myself frequently (it is, after all a business expense and deductible) doesn't mean that Apple does not design its products with planned obsolescence in mind. I personally switched from Apple because of a history of having difficulties connecting it to my business systems. The iPhone was not positioned to work with the productivity tools that I wanted to be able to use for my work. Android works better for that. |

Bikes and accessories are valid options. |
Just turned the new ac on for the first time. Wife prolly won’t approve, but I am the one stuck in the house and 79 degrees is a little ridiculous.

First warm ride of the year. I don’t think I am acclimated to the heat yet, there were a few times I felt on the verge of puking. Still, a fine ride.

That is just too hot. 72 is a good baseline.
79 is only OK if your sitting under the ceiling fan with a cold drink. |
