It's been so long since I did a real ride I forgot I would be hungry at the end. The app says 35.6 miles. Close enough. My 20 year old shorts are too big for me. How are these things sized? Waist size?

Trying to help/stay out of the way while Mrs. GeneJockey gets ready for an impromptu trip to San Diego with an old friend and her sister. The sister just bought a puppy on the spur of the moment (she already has one dog), so Mrs. GJ is going down to SD with them for a week, to...... Well, that's not exactly clear.

Got called an elitist duck today. Chasing the car down wasn’t my smartest moment.

I felt compelled to educate the driver on the 3 foot rule. I don’t think it got through though. Interestingly enough, after trying to vehicular man slaughter us, he made a big show of trying to pull a fire arm out once the rest of my group showed up. I never saw one, but that was def the point he was trying to make.
I should have let it go, but I was seeing red. It really pissed me off.

What do ya'll use for an under the back seat water bottle holder/mount?
I'm no tri-guy but it's 100+ degrees here and a 30+ mile ride might be 3 water bottles, not 2.
Convince me I don't need the water or give me a rec on what under the back seat water bottle holder is a good deal.

Nothing good would come of it. I usually ignore ass holes but today I just couldn’t. I want to change my name to elitist duck.

First there’s flooding in Yellowstone and now new snow in Glacier creating serious avalanche concerns.
