Agree. That said, either is better than 90% of the music on the radio/streaming services today.

There is a guy in Dallas who used to drive a 962 to Cars and Coffee and around town. Can't imagine driving one of those or a 917 on the street.

Just got word back - they're in transit between facilities and they won't be able to say if they'll be willing to sell them until they hit the next stop in 6-8 weeks. Womp womp.
They said they'd give me another $25 off of a black pair, putting them at $75 for a great, carbon-soled shoe.... but... meh - they just don't do it for me and I'm sure as hell not going to get a black helmet to match 'em.

My logic was not appreciated.

I've seen some great cars at C&C - including a lot of Porsche's - but no 917 or 962
car in the attached pic is prob the most race-close car I've seen in the past couple of years ... can't recall the name of this car ... Lxxxxxx ? ...
I remained late just so I could see this car drive off - but the owner never did appear

I have some pictures of the 962, and may try to go back and find them.
As for the car in your picture, you never see The Batman until it's too late!

I usually do oatmeal but I think I’m going to start adding a bagel to that routine. I was pretty tired yesterday after just 4 innings, so hopefully the bagel will handle the first 4 innings and the oatmeal will handle the last four.

Ride didn’t feel bad this morning. Didn’t push it, but did dial it up a couple of times. Half expected to black out or something if my heart rate went above 150, but nothing happened. Everything felt normal, just my legs were a touch a weak.
Felt fine all day, installed a new TV, started moving the guest bed room into the office, the office into the master to make room a possible nursery.
The last hour a cough started again. I hope this doesn’t mean I am going to get worse again.

Rolled with the local group last night; thought I was immune from a beat up road on 32mm's. Not quite. Got sucked into a seam between the road that looked like it had been filled (shadows playing tricks). Rode it like a rail mine car; carbon on concrete for about 6-7 feet before getting tossed off. Never a dull moment over here. Elbow and knee took the heat, will be, OK. Had a thought of running slick 38's just to combat all the CRAP roads around here but ultimately I don't have tire clearance in the frame for it, nor the extra wattage to push 'em.

It's how high the lows are that gets me. At least here if it's >100 during the day it still gets down into the 60s overnight.
