I just hope I'm better than the current batch. No offense to anyone here. |
Today's ride had a starting temp of 86 and ending temp of 88, with medium humidity. It was plenty hot, especially in the sun...but actually not bad in the shade on on descents. I did drink 2 bottles in 2 hours, and luckily it was a recovery/Z2 ride so I did not have to hammer. If it was to be a hard ride, I would have likely overheated.

Fingers crossed. It will be interesting, when pro cycling starts up again, if we find out if it spreads through riding or if the contagion in the early races was in the hotels and buses and dining.

I hope some tall tryathletes start selling thier bikes. I'd love a TT bike, but only if it's about 75% off retail.

The last time we rode together was last Saturday. He got tested Thursday by the MLB team he works for, and it came up positive. Today he texted that he lost taste/smell, but feels okay.

Most reports state a typical incubation period of 4-5 days, so if you have not had contact for 7 days and you feel fine, that's a very good sign.
I definitely don't want to be "that guy" that gave it to all his coworkers, I worked 2 days after my last contact with the guy that tested positive, but at work we are all very cautious. |

Way back in April, when we knew very little, I woke up one morning with a sore throat (two days after meeting the DHL delivery guy with neither of us wearing masks). Next day I felt like I was coming down with something, AND, my raw almonds tasted bitter and other things tasted weird. At the time I was unaware of that being a symptom. Now I read that it is THE symptom. Anyway, as the week went on, I had muscle pain, dizziness, noticeably low blood pressure one day only. At the end of the first week all I had was the sore throat and it continued one more week. No testing of course. But I'm telling myself I had it.

Sounds like you did.

Is this a sign of COVID-19, or something else?

I've heard the same thing, but I'm being cautious.

Ditto. I think that I'd have a lot of fun on one, but I don't think that I'd ride it enough to justify anything near retail.

I’m fairly certain I exceeded my fitness level today, I’ve been asleep since 3:30...
it it was brutally hot the last 50 miles |

But you'll both probably have frames to choose from before long. |

The big 4-0.
I know how you feel though, I was incredibly anti-establishment in my teens and early 20s, even getting the mandarin character for “resist” tattooed on my arm. Now I’m part of it |
