Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

New lock and cable day. Last month I unlocked outside of work and think I left my keys on a low wall. Came back not even 15 minutes later and they were gone. Either that or they fell out of my pocket, but I don’t think so. The lock dates back to the early 90s.

On the Domane, which had a Blndr mount, there were adapters for various light mounts, including GoPro-style, which had become a popular method of converting.

As far as the Bolt, it's the same mount as Garmin, just turned 90⁰. On some mounts, you can unscrew the mounting plate, turn it, and screw it back in. Otherwise, you can look for an alternate mounting plate. And there's always Shapeways - users have designed/uploaded plenty of converters/adapters that you can print out.


My current night rider has the rubber strap that you have to stretch around the bar, the Madone SLR bars are too wide for it to stretch around.

Are light manufactures creating all quick release equal? I wouldn’t thing my night rider could fit the the bontrager light mount.





Are the backs of garmin and wahoo the same? I was under the impression they would be different, to the point a garmin mount wouldn’t match a wahoo and wahoo mount wouldn’t match a garmin. The bars come with the mount on the picture for a garmin, to fit a wahoo I would have to buy an after market mount. The only one that I have found that will do the above set up is through trek and it basically turns the wahoo from 280.00 dollars to 350.00 dollars.

Yesterday was dry, today is wet. I should have checked the weather yesterday and did a cycling activity then.

I could have easily checked the website. For whatever reason, I just assumed it would be OK today.

Got to play a round of disc golf with one of my best friends today. He was asked to come visit a Guard F-16 unit in nearby Columbia SC, so he ended up being able to visit for a little bit.

It was a beautiful day and a beautiful time, even though that bastid beat me by one stroke
