Made it through the TSA and waiting at the gate. The security guy gave me a thorough pat-down including tracing his hands completely around my waistband. Neither mrs datlas nor daughter got that. Daughter says it’s because I look “ethnic.” Pot calling kettle black imo.

Went on a routine Saturday group rode and totally blew up. HR/power for the last third of the ride was crazy high and my legs and back were killing me. I nearly had to creep up the basement stairs on all 4s and it took me quite a while to be able to stand up without dropping my BP below what it takes to perfuse my big ol’ head. Wasn’t even that hot.

Of course, she looked to be about 40 years younger, very fit, and on a tri bike. Still a humbling experience.

If you want to feel better about yourself, you can use my numbers for comparison. I got passed today by a girl. I was huffing, puffing, and trailing sweat, and she casually passed me like I wasn’t even moving.
Of course, she looked to be about 40 years younger, very fit, and on a tri bike. Still a humbling experience.

I am At my witts end with the noise from my disk brake bike. I've repacked and adjusted the headset 5 times and added a couple of shims to the top cap. I replaced the bottom bracket. Lubed and adjusted it multiple times. Still get this weird tick tick tick. When pedaling. Mostly over bumps, not big ones cracks in the road. It's random. Only occurs when it wants too. I tightened the ring bolts and the spider mounting bolts today and serviced the b.b. again today, but I saw no reason for it to be making noise. I've lubed the bars stem seat mount and post. Different pedals too. I hate to say it but I am contemplating taking it to a shop.....
