My wife now insists that I just consider replacing the R3 and keep the gravel bike, but to also make sure whatever I get has electronic shifting. She’s steering me down a dark path toward the Caledonia5

Don't trade-in or do the over-the-air firmware update for that wife.

Single-digit temperatures and a blanket of snow (sure it's only a few inches...). Finally feels like winter.

My fake ride (FulGaz) today took me up Hidden Valley near the Santa Monica mountains. Had a female riding partner in the video with a kit that said, "LadyFace" on the side panel. Throwing that in for the Hidden Valley locals.

She’s a good egg.Although to be honest, when I ride a bike without electronic shifting the only thing I miss is how easy it is to flip through Garmin screens…
Whenever I want something, I have budget double just to account for the quid pro quo. |

I don’t think she does, she just wants me to be able to ride the bike I want to ride.

Sounds like a MotD material - overlay of Panera locations and needle drug use. Get on it, Velo Vol

Behind Enemy Lines is a dark movie during dark times. I’ve watched it three times.

So? He said he hasn't seen it. Oh, I watched this recently. Parts of it are OK, but that ending, especially, made me dumber for having seen it. |

For many Americans, this is the PATH to needle drugs. (you still have to inject insulin, right?)

Side query -
What's the bigger health problem in the US: obesity or illicit needle drugs? |

My wife is the same. She has not once suggested I have too many bikes She watches me ride them all and that's good enough for her. We are admittedly an odd couple, made up of two odd singles.
Then I realized - The Boys! Mrs. GJ and I get to be together AND make two other people miserable! |

Did the monthly C&V ride this morning. "'Sup Larry" showed up, and was going to ride with us, but that big ride of fast guys flew past before we started and went off in hot pursuit. He's a big friendly guy. Reminds me of big goofy dog, like a Golden.
Anyhow, it was a nice ride, but I cut it a bit short so as not to spend all day at it. One of the other guys correctly guessed that I was hoping the new seatpost for the Litespeed would have arrived. But no.... |
