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

Meets all of your qualifications. Plus it has Owen Wilson. Who doesn’t like Owen Wilson.
Behind Enemy Lines is a dark movie during dark times. I’ve watched it three times.

Don’t know if either are available, but I would search.

BTW…I am with you on the Marvel thing.
thanks for the info.

Was looking at that jacket- worth the money?

sounds too dark and war movies are not something I would put her through. It's the women's equivalent to a chick flick. Is Owen Wilson the guy from Marley and me - the dog movie? If so, not a fan.

I got the Rapha Core winter jacket, and really like it. Thicker more wind resistant up front, thinner and more breathable in back. Non-floppy fit.

Couple more ideas if you haven’t seen them:

Ford versus Ferrari

The Art of Racing in the Rain

Thats another on my list. I’m sure that is probably plenty for me, but I also ride in just a thermal base layer and jersey over top from 40-30 degrees

It’s 20 and sunny here with dry roads and I’ll be damned if I’m going to miss riding today, hangover or no.

The plot has thickened on the quest for n=1. My wife now insists that I just consider replacing the R3 and keep the gravel bike, but to also make sure whatever I get has electronic shifting. She’s steering me down a dark path toward the Caledonia5

Single-digit temperatures and a blanket of snow (sure it's only a few inches...). Finally feels like winter.

It didn't help. Everything was covered in concrete dust.
Don't they use water with those saws? Apparently not.
