So one thing I used to do, post ride, is get a sense on how I did on a few segments. I am not that competitive, but a little. New Strava means that activity is less satisfying. But I don’t miss it enough to pay $60/year for it.

I've woken up with a sore throat, actually started before I went to bed last night. I'm going to chalk it up to allergies for now. Yeah, it's probably allergies.
[MENTION=107711]datlas[/MENTION] We have free testing for everyone, symptoms or not, in my city but what's the point? My neighbors tested negative but could be positive next week. It just seems like a waste of resources to test everyone regardless of symptoms or exposure.

I can't even sniff the podium, but then again, I'm only at ~144 miles (couldn't ride yesterday - it was a washout), so that's probably as it should be when among a group of serious cyclists.

Fun ride this morning. The first 50 was super nice with mostly overcast and very shaded roads. The last 20 were a bit tough, it got hot and exposed and I don't think I ate enough, but by that time I was starting to feel a bit nauseous so eating what I had was a no-go.
I also found a wall disguised as a road.
A few pictures:

I barely remember what it feels like to ride a bike. When I become pinless, on Friday(I hope), I'm gonna ask if it's ok. I'll by then have enough grip in the three recently released fingers, and I am hoping that without the pin the vibration won't cause so much pain.

Congrats on the #s whifi.
I shouldn't have covered my coworkers on call today. But he has covered a few of mine , a little good will.
Really looking forward to tomorrow. my legs are only a little sore from yesterday, which is weird. I thought I would be hella sore from spinning 1st gear the last 13 miles. Im hoping it means I'm starting to find some kind of fitness.. I gotta lose this weight and get back in shape. (Sigh) every year same song. I have little discipline.

One of three races are on today, at least. They're racing in Charlotte tonight.

I guess I could bring it back out to the garage, but then the neighbors might see it

And I got a rack to hang the cast iron collection from, but I need to do some mud, sanding, texture and paint on the soffit before installation.
