I'd just like to say that the Mavic CXP Pro is a nice rim to build a wheel with.
That is all.

We had a fun midweek ride. A total of 10 in our group and everyone mostly behaved. One rider jettisoned his rear blinkie on the way out of town. I saw approximately where it landed, in some grass by the side of the road, so I decided on our way back we could have a “Treasure Hunt” group-building activity to find the missing light. One rider skipped the rest stop and got to the site a minute before the rest of us, so he cheated and found the light as the rest of us arrived.
Even so, it was 100% fun.

Indoor season has begun early, or at least for an unusual reason this year - rain. Normally, the reason for indoor season to start in August or September, it's smoke.
September is really messing with my mileage, between the heat, then the knee, and now rain.

So Simons due date is Jan 8. Ever since that date was determined I had joked that it has to be moved up to Dec 31st for tax reasons. Just talked to our insurance, if he is born Dec 31st it will cost 225.00 if he is born Jan 1st it will cost 3000.00. Seems pretty ridiculous to me.

Not all recumbents are bad. I rode this quite a bit back in the late 2000s due to back trouble and some surgeries. Full carbon, 17.5#, all DuraAce. Smooth as silk.

My family has rented a place in Lake Lure NC for the week. I am off of work beginning tomorrow and ending Monday and am planning on riding up there tomorrow.
Just found out that the ride will end with a 1.5 mile 10%-20% climb after 77 miles and 6000'
Should be fun
It will also be the first time my brother has been to the Southeast
