Crappy weekend in our household, wife and I have been trying to buy a house for 9 months. Lost out on three of them last year, one which we were under contract on. Went and saw one Friday AM, immediately put in an over asking price offer but are now are in a multiple offer situation. People are trying to relocate here from downstate and driving prices up to silly levels so looks like we will miss out on another.

sorry to hear that amigo. We think we’re gunna start trying to buy one in the spring. Currently the houses are only lasting about 10 days on the market, and we need a little more funds to be competitive. Also, losing a house that we really want would destroy the wife.

Initial impressions from today:
1. 40 miles of MUP is definitely too much
2. This saddle is probably best for 60-75 mile rides, maybe not 125
3. 10 hours is a long time to spend with myself

Man, y'all need to chill out. I've got 173 miles so far and I'm not going to do any better than third on the week.

Bah - datlas would just last down a century tomorrow, anyway.
I felt great all day, but hit a freaking wall at 110 miles.

Went sailing today. Great conditions, but it didn’t look like a pleasant night to anchor out, so we will sleep at home and I will get some distance tomorrow...

IMO ideal bike ride is about 4-5 hours. More than 5ish and something starts to feel no bueno.

I hit my ride too hard. Well, I hit it hard enough that I didn't have much left in the tank at the end, so I'm going to need to seriously rein it in for a metric double of my own. I should really work on that...

Very rare in the southern portion, where I’m going. The campground does have some feral cats. One time there I got takeout and was too lazy to ride all the way to the dumpsters. Cat tried to drag off my garbage bag. Another time I had to scare off one of the largest raccoons I have ever seen. They often feed out of the dumpsters there.

BTDT. Only once though. I managed 118 that day. I decided a double metric wasn't a necessary milestone.

I lost a water bottle towards the end of today’s ride and was too cranky to go on a treasure hunt to find it.
I do need a couple new water bottles anyway as my usual ones are getting worn.
I have usually been buying Camelbak Podium bottles, any reason to look elsewhere?
