What are your thoughts on hiking?

NBD!

Now he tells me...

No. Coronaviruses mutate relatively slowly for RNA viruses and are not expected to change their antigenic spots on a regular basis, like influenza. The question is whether the virus evokes an antibody response which persists or fades with significantly with time.

Welcome to the elite.

That looks like approximately 17 miles of seat post. ;)

Sweet :thumb:

Different needs on a trail, akin to differences between road biking and mountain biking.. AFAIK, no need to worry about things like pronation. You're more worried about things like protection from trail features.

That was me just throwing it on, not actually trying to fit it yet.

I got my coronavirus test back today: negative. Woo hoo! I was tested at noon on Monday and the result was in my email inbox at 11:08am. So around a 48hr turn around time for testing. My first elevated temp was around 6am on Monday and I was advised to schedule the test by work around 8:30am (not sure why I did not think of that on my own). So the whole process was super quick and easy. Its possible. I'm not sure how the feds are stopping your county from testing but not my county.

LA County announced yesterday that they are now offering free coronavirus tests to certain non-sick essential personnel- basically people that have lots of contact with others- prison guards, nursing home workers, grocery clerks, etc. Obviously there is limited info obtained from that because you could be negative today and an asymptomatic carrier tomorrow. But its so nice to see them ramping up testing because the more info we have, the better.

Regardless of surface, if you pronate, you need a shoe with big support on the medial side of the foot because of the risk of harm to your knees. If you don't you'll likely be okay (or not) with anything of reasonable quality that fits.

I ordered a new pair of trail running shoes today. :o

So Canadian, but definitely not French-Canadian ;)

Glad to hear. It would be nice if they were doing that here.

Yeah, I kind of assumed that you didn't have a 46" inseam. :p

I'd rather it was only paved. But obviously that's not an option most of the time. For walking I just have to HTFU.
:bday:

. . . but all that seatpost. wut

Is there a simple explanation why for some viruses you only need exposure once over many years or decades and your immune system "remembers," but maybe not for this?

Disclaimer: I gave up on trail running because I crashed too much. Trail shoes are very different from pavement shoes in a number of way, but I don’t think fit is less critical. Fit is different, as how gravel bikes usually fit differently for the same rider, but you’ll hate trail running if you have the wrong shoe.

That said, the chatter about fixing your myriad abnormalities is likely junk. Finding your favorite shoes, road or trail, is a process. Watching elite runners shows that many of them have “wrong” strides, and much of modern shoe “science” goes back to Bowerman making isht up. I doubt anyone could accurately find a great shoe for you based on watching you or measuring you, but I’m sure many will say they can.

Bah Humbug is ignoring my jnat questions. :cry:

That or the mentions are borked again.

Mentions dunt work for me. I’m at the chiro office though, so ask away. Super captive audience while AG gets worked on, then my turn.

Or I can try to remember when we get home, but not searching around while on the phone.

Hot Dawg!

Thanks :thumb: I will keep all of that in mind for the future.

Kudos!

Could be the perspective but looks like bars rotated up a bit too much.

Ha! I was just curious as to whether or not you've waded in to those waters or if you've stayed with synthetics. I'm thinking about picking up an entry-level stone in the near future for some dumb reason.
