We'll see how close the first week is. Could expand it to a month.
If you know how to do that, be my guest. I'm not going to be updating it every day.

HTFU ride in a thunderstorm tonight - I'm a total badass!!
Okay...well...I wasn't really IN the rain. I was on my Zwift rig in the garage, but the garage door was open, and the rain was hitting the ground just a few feet in front of my wheel. It's totally the same thing, right?

My Ultegra groupset was supposed to be delivered by FedEx on Saturday. According to their tracking it was about 1 hour away from me on Saturday, in Allentown PA.
Now they say it's delayed and location is now 2 hours away from me in North Jersey, and the site won't give me an estimated delivery date.
Is this SOP for FedEx?!?

I don’t think I have ever experienced this in this thread.
In the hot or not thread it routinely says i’m on page X and there are 3 more pages to get to Y, but when I click on the next arrow I am still on page X. I have always assumed the page was wrong and I was actually on the last page.

We just had a torrential downpour pass over. Looks like a ride window is opening up (storms are moving north)

Pffftt . . . torrential downpours show red on the radar, yellow at least. Green is showers on the east coast.

And link seems to turn off the radar...
Guess a Jerome screenshot will have to do.

It was. I had the lights down low, Steely Dan's Aja playing, some wine, when I turned the bike over to remove the wheels and saw in the rings what looked like a blob with a leaf sticking out of it. I thought "Well, I was in NYC, so anything could have happened." Pulled the blob out by what I thought was the leaf and held it up to my face. That's when I realized I was holding a bat wing with a bat attached to it. It's eyes were open and fangs showing. And there was a red spot of blood right in the middle of its chest where it had been impaled on the chainring. I dropped it on the bar and ran to the kitchen scrub my fingers.
