50km this morning. Felt good.

I'll give it a try again tomorrow morning.

45 Miles O.D. with an on route failing BBB.

Good luck today :thumb:


Yesterday was my 9th Anniversary 100 mile ride for a bicycling friend killed by a semi as he and 2 of his cycling buddies began their last week's worth of riding to Key West, FL that began in Prudhoe Bay, AK.

:beer:

20 miles after work on another scorching day! 🥵

61km this morning at dawn.

Mist on the river.

Mist in the mountains.

Pheasants strutting in the field.

That is rough. I am sorry

And thank you! I indeed did go out for 61km this morning!

Rain from the recent typhoon finally cleared out today, so I got a chance to get out on my recently upgraded Dahon Boardwalk and test out my upgrades. Super happy with the results.

40 Miles O.D.

Please forgive my ignorance but what does "O.D." mean?

Far out. Where are you?

Thanks for those local pictures. Reminds me of one of my last foreign trips - two weeks in China with the end in Shanghai. That was Oct 2019. Then the Dolomites in Feb 2020. Both China and Italy later to be Covid locales.

To the "how fer" question, for last night's interval workout I have to answer "only 11 miles." But I averaged 18 mph solo on rolling hills (actually eight times around a 1.4 mile loop that includes two short climbs and descents).

If there were a thread asking how many times I got my heart rate to spike at or near its max, I could proudly say "fifteen!" :thumb:

Tonight I plan to go 22 miles with a group, flat terrain and 20-ish mph.

17.5, 775 gain. Hit the local bike shop and ordered a stem to raise my handlebars some more - neck issues can cause vertigo like symptoms.

I wonder if a moderator could fix the two extra phantom pages that show up in this thread? The real last page seems to be 111 but the thread navigation tools show a Page 112 and Page 113. I will report my post to get attention.

This phenomenon is caused by accumulated deleted posts in large threads. We can't adjust for this. We could close this thread and start a new one.

I can live with it. And since no one else mentioned it - not a real problem. Thanks for the reply.

it's like Fight Club, you do not talk about thread page offsets, nobody talks about thread page offsets.

I live in Shanghai.

Very nice!

50km this morning.

I can report that the fertilizer in the fields is quite ripe.

Yeah, I noticed my thread has 2844 replies, but currently the last one shows at only number 2758. Just curious, but why are there deleted posts? I can't ever recall any shenanigans on here requiring a post to be deleted.

22 miles on another scorching day.

Monday, 19 and 1256 ft of climbing on trainer
Tuesday, 15.5 and 2250 ft of climbing on the trainer
Wednesday, 22 and 600 ft of climbing on the trainer

This is a lot of climbing for a flat lander...

haven't seen it on bf in a while but i recall a late night or two a few years ago where there were dozens of gibberish, spam posts affecting multiple forums/threads.
likely cleaned up before many browsed this way that day. don't think it's because billy got brusque...

55 miles and almost 6,500 ft of elevation gain starting from 8,000 ft to 13,000 ft, Beautiful but I could feel the thin air after 12K.

Just another day....
