Addiction 2021.1

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

TdZ Stage 7 tonight. Hooked onto the wrong group out of the gate, and ended up burning too many matches just keeping up with them through the lo-o-ong lead in and ended up with nothing for the third lap. Live and learn. I did draft a guy down the last descent, and also took a turn, but he was watching his distance to the end better than I was so when he accelerated I let him go, even though I probably had enough left to stay with him through the finish.

We're up for 3-5" snow this afternoon and then in to the deep freeze for the 10 day forecast with occasional nuisance snows. Going to be a tough couple weeks.

The good news is that with my wife and I both using our Kickr, the original purchase price (2016) as in cost/ride is getting cheaper.

We are a day behind, and maybe a bit more snow (calling for 5-8 inches) and also deep freeze coming.

Agree the newer smart trainers plus video game options make it less dreary to get fake miles in during cold winters. My Kickr snap is now 3 years old and holding up fine.

True. Having morning coffee with my beloved. We will take a stroll in a bit.

Good morning guys!

BITD, Chico and his band would play Char's Lounge at least once a month and we'd head down to Tempe for a lot of those shows. He was Howlin' Wolf's last drummer.

The medical group keeps sending me messages. They send them in the name of my witch doctor, so I'm compelled to look at them in case they're important.

Gotta go through the hassle of logging in to the portal to see them. They're all general COVID stuff that's of no interest to me. They could at least say what it is in the email subject line.

Ooooh mama indeed! I saw they were doing, or attempting to do, the same with the E-Type as well. I wish I had the money, and Lancia decided to do the same with my first love, the Stratos.

Here is one for sale but I'm not sure if it is from the same run as the one you pictured. From what I read on the Jaguar site I don't think street legal is possible, although the used one says it's "titled".
