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

Nope. It's like an hour away. Even if they have a food pass, the veggie options were not great last time I was there.

Whew, I saw this in my inbox and thought, "Oh noes, not band!"



Fortunately (for now) he just asked us to wear masks when we're moving about in the building so NBD.

Are you going to stream the game on your connected device? Wouldn't blame you if you did. Too late for me, I'm no whipper snapper.

Could you make that any smaller? Some of us have vision issues.

If I were building with those hubs for that bike, I'd use rim with a classic profile, like a Mavic Open Pro or an H Son Plus TB14 (if you want to go wider) with DT Swiss Competition spokes and brass nipples.

Nope. But if I was watching sports (solo), I have nothing to get ready. I'd just get whatever is needed during breaks in the action. (for baseball 3:55 of the 4:00 is downtime)
