Maybe they could make one that you would swallow before the ride and you could retrieve it later.

I agree with everything that you wrote. You remember what I went through with my previous doc that sent me to my cardiologist despite me telling her my cycling history, benign arrythmia, etc.and that my cardiologist released me after a lot of testing in 2016 and declared me as a fit and healthy individual heart-wise. She had access to all of that but asked me to see him again, anyway. They can't fathom heartrates below 40 at night or 40s in their exam room and to be honest, I'm a short pudgy guy and I can see their concern. Still, they have all of my records. They're from the same medical group. :foo:

I listened to a podcast last night, where she postulated that skeletal muscle health is the predictor of longevity. And as such, lots of daily protein. A gram per pound of body weight.
And fasting. At least 24 hours once a month.

I forgot my HRM on the ride this morning and had one of my better off-day, TT-ish rides yet. I guess that it's sometimes easier when you can't see how much you're suffering :p

So, The closest I have come to dying yet happened today. I was heading down capital landing road south bound. Traffic was non existent. As I approached parkway dr a car approached the stop sign on parkway facing west. The sun was behind her and I was lit up plus wearing white. She could have gone before I got to the intersection and would have had time but she didn’t. Instead she waits til i’ve started crossing to gun her engine and come right at me. I was in spinning at a very high cadence and had no acceleration. My brain did the squirel dance. I didn’t know if I should go backwards or forwards. I was concerned maybe she didn’t see me and when she did she would swerve. Well a second later she is stairing right into my eyes and keeps coming. She never slowed, never made any attempt to avoid me. I think she missed my rear wheel by less than a foot. What the duck is going on with drivers. Do they not realize they will go to jail if they intentionally kill someone? |

Do they not realize they will go to jail if they intentionally kill someone? There’s only legal weapon we have is the civil lawsuit. It’s also important to realize that VA is a contributory negligence state which means that if you are found by the court to be even slightly at fault, you collect nothing. Also, everyone on that jury drives a car… So yeah, if a driver wants to kill you, they can probably do it with minimal inconvenience. Sorry to hear about that, anyway! |

Oh and the guy I was riding with in Charlotte got a drone this week that follows and films while he is riding. It’s pretty awesome. I shouldn’t be shocked by it, but I am. Doesn’t happen that often, thankfully. |

Always leave yourself a way out. Never trust a motor vehicle.

Just polished off the first cup from the new coffee maker. Feeling the buzz. Nice.
