...it was a spectacular day here today, so I actually put in about 3 and a half hours riding this:
I guess if I Strava'd, or had a Garmin, or even thought about it I could figure out how far and how fast.

...as a personal favor to me, you could all draft letters to the Loctite people asking why they continue their ridiculous "blue stuff in the red tube, red stuff in the blue tube" marketing strategy.

I suspect they started out with only one product. When they brought out another grade, it was too late to claim the matching tube color.

Bottles on the bars is really the best thing ever. I'm surprised it hasn't made a comeback.

i tease lop about strava all the time whether the activity engaged in is a walk down to starbucks, a roll in the hay, or running around the apartment dragging a brake cable while a happy cat tries to catch it. #didyoustravathat

...yeah, I don't get it either. It's an especially convenient spot for an older frame with no bottle braze ons. I have a stash of the Nashbar adapters, but it's almost used up. Time to reorder.

About 20% of CX racers around here toss/stash their water bottles right before the starting gun.

...yeah. You have to do some creative work with a rat tail file on the Nashbar thingies if you want to even go up to a Cinelli bar. PIA
