How do you tell a next-door neighbor that their festering kiddie pool is breeding mosquitos? They're even attacking in the daytime, just now in full sunlight where I'm usually safe.
We have a respectful relationship, wave and smile and say hello and all, but they've only been there a year so we're not 'tight" yet. I'm dying to just give them a couple mosquito dunks but they have 2 young-uns and I don't want to be responsible if they misuse it.

How's the ol' softball arm? Think you could plunk some chlorine tabs in to the pool?

Just checked, Looks like I passed 5000 miles my last ride as well.
I just might be able to hit my goal of 7500

Maybe I should stop getting my new routes from a climber.
Not quite an official datlas ride of 100'/mile but ~50mi and 4300' still hurt quite a bit.
Ended up hitting PRs on a decent amount of segments and got a 7w increase on my eFTP from Intervals
Must be why I've been glued to the couch all afternoon
