I know this guy's videos have been on here before, but I thought this one is pretty cool due to its very calming feel of the film.
The guy is still f'in crazy.

The must have paved it since I was there because the top was rough.
There are 2 descents in the area which were more memorable to me. Coming down from Lake Sabrina we were going so fast it was ridiculous. Most of the riders were braking.

Couple of ugly potholes there, enough to rattle your fillings out.

Abshipp. On the 16th of June I scheduled a meeting at 8 am not knowing it was going to give me the whole day off. Anyways the meeting is going to take 30 mins and I will be in Charlotte. I could come to you if you are available. Just throwing that out there.
Got good news today, I’m getting based back in New York August 1st.
I can’t do 4 days on 2 days off. I have literally spent my whole day off running around. Tomorrow I have to go back to Charlotte.

Well sure.
Mombug is doing pretty well, thanks - still better than I had been, but has confirmed she is not up to coming along for the house-shopping tomorrow. Has progressed to being able to do things like get her own first coffee in the morning, and needs less help/ help less often getting settled on her chair. Even when I do lift her left for her it moves more easily. That said, yeah, she's still definitely well south of "recovered". Of course.

And of course, my being happily-settled-in relationship-wise for all these years removed a great deal of what this thread used to be about.

Newport-Bermuda tracker is up with one week to the start!
Gulf Stream images are here among other places
Restive in the Finisterre division is your man. Here's the entry list, unfortunately without ratings. We should be one of the faster boats in the division and handicapped accordingly, so some boats behind us could finish ahead on corrected time.

For the Addicts that wear Lakes and are lace-curious - they've got both Black and White CX-1s (3-hole, carbon sole) on closeout for $99 (MSRP was $199) and have them available in both Regular and Wide (their Regular are moderately wide, as-is). I just ordered a pair of White because I'm a fancy boy and I'll be even fancier with laces. 
FYI, these are final sale, so you need to be sure about your Lake sizing - I don't think they're taking returns.
