Maybe. I didn't notice it on my then-normal riding on the long, mostly-straight Queen P up north, but then on COTA it was scary on the descent from Turn 1 when trying to lean into the curve and the tire would distinctly resist, then suddenly pop over the shoulder. At speed, on a tri bike. Not a happy camper.

In other news, my ride hit 95*. Rumors of summer's death have been greatly exaggerated. Velo Vol, if you miss it, you're welcome to come visit at a suitable social distance.

BTDT, especially when I have the summer balaclava on.

I figured you (and WhyFi, actually) would win today. The week is young.

Going forward, my morning ride time on off days is going to start feeling the pinch with later sunrises, too. I'm almost tempted to start up Sufferfest a couple months early just to keep in the daily riding habit.

The boy goes "back to school" tomorrow, so there's a little more implied family time pressure. Not a great day, weather wise, either.

Maybe. I eat a varied diet, but for some reason always eat the same breakfast: Greek yogurt and a banana. Keeps me going until noon.

I always have cold cereal for breakfast. Usually have a banana and a granola bar mid morning, on the bike or not. Big-ish lunch and large salad for dinner most days. Yogurt after dinner. Still like chocolate chip cookies and really have no restrictions. Eat whatever I want and still lost 10 pounds after retiring. Thought I was going to gain but there is so much less stress eating.
If I had any discipline or control I could be in great shape and be a faster rider but I don't. 200 is pretty light for me, I wrestled in high school at 235-250. My fattest beer days were around 260.
