Speaking of Tyre Humidors, I have one too and I just checked and I am down to 3 Conti GP4000s, two of which will go on the new wheels for the upgraded Habanero.
So I will be looking at buying some GP5000s in the next several months. A few years ago PBK was the "it" place to get good prices reliably. What's the latest thought?

I'm no art guru. My observation that in impressionistic paintings the light is quite important. So I note the apparent sunrise/sunset on the horizon to the left. Unclear whether it's due to this, or another reason, that Daughter # ? is mostly illuminated. On the other hand, datlas is in the shadows. He appears to be brooding. Maybe still sore over the practice buyout.

Jury service week completed! Checked in every night and did not have to go in. Anxiety relieved.

Perhaps he's one of those people who don't perspire, and so has no grasp of how dehydration works.

I gotta try and get to sleep early tonight, see if I can get my sleep schedule set up for watching Paris Roubaix live.
I'll probably sleep in and have to download it though.

a) 10 additional miles
b) how do you know that I didn't HTFU just to get to whatever the number? I did run out well before getting home.
c) I happened to have weighed myself before and after the ride - I was 5lbs lighter afterwards, and this was after downing a pint of water and an oatmilk protein shake, so I was probably closer to 6.5-7lbs lighter.
d) you should totally show us how it's done.

Coincidentally, I watched "A Sunday In Hell" today for the first time. It was ok bit there was a lot of screen time for people yakking in Flemish or French. If they weren't going to subtitle them it would have been nice to at least tell the viewer wtf they were talking about.
