Mrs datlas asked my dad for his miter saw and he gave it to her. I think it’s a pretty good one, maybe 105 level. Will try to get pics and post.

The little lady got two tubes of "mineral" sunscreen, so until I can go out and get myself some stuff that doesn't work as well, but looks better, I'm going out like this:

The Habanero currently has a boat anchor rear wheel, it's actually the stock wheel that came with the Roubaix. I wanted to give it something better but it's too soon for the Reynolds Assaults.
I still have my Williams 38 carbon clincher rear wheel (the front got cracked by a rock although I still have it, that's what is poking into the saw picture), so I put that on along with newfangled Reynolds cryo-blue brake pads. It might be placebo effect, but a quick test ride around the block suggests it feels faster, and dry braking is fine.

There is a tool for everything.

Some people were expecting big news/reveal from Shimano today.
Didn’t happen. Yet.

Not shimano, but leaked Garmin power pedals made the waves, “Rally” instead of “Vector”, with SPD, SPD-SL, and Look options. And Wahoo hacked a speedplay and Assioma to arrive at their powrlink zero pedals.

Woke up with a killer headache this morning and didn’t take any Tylenol, before or after the shot with fears of adverse effects, may take a nap instead. I was certain it’s a dehydration related headache, but still raging on.

The little bit of stretching I did this afternoon actually improved the knee function. Both thighs were/are still quite tight. Whodathunkit?

Project done. Used Specialized S Wrap Roubaix in 40mm width. A little harder to wrap because it doesn't turn as tightly. Will likely go back to
30mm tape next time. Love the feel of the tape, and will see how it performs.

May you be blessed with an easy second dose. Mine was quite the opposite. Good luck
