Minutiae. I realize now, that it is not the motorsports, or the photography, or the music theory, per se. I just glaze over at the minutiae. I had the same issues over in C&V, when the discussion turned to pulling vs pushing spokes, or the operation of the return spring in a specific rd.

Time to ride. I will try not to break a lot of spokes.

Good luck

So does the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, under direction of the Concert Master, a violinist (Emma McGrath, and a damned fine one at that). The string section is the last to tune.

Not the oboe?

The other dog, the first one I posted about is Annie. She's 8 years old and her owner died after breaking her neck in a car crash! :( She went back to her breeder to live but she needs a regular home. Grand champion. I know what a champion is but not really what the "grand" part signifies.

We're going to meet both dogs at a dog show a week from Sat.

Annie is pretty cute too...

Will wonders never cease? My phone self-scrolled to the bottom of the page. I discovered, below the 33, beyond which I'd never tread, a forum devoted to carbon wheels! One can only wonder what remains to be discovered i the outer reaches.

After 2 days I'm on top of the Addiction Strava leader board.

What's wrong with you people? Get out and ride!

In case any of you ever wanted to succeed in motor racing, the best tip I can give is to change your first name to Sebastian (or its various other spellings).

First race of the season in IndyCar won by Sébastien Bourdais.

First race of the season in F1 won by Sebastian Vettel.

First race of the season in World Rally Car won by
Sébastien Ogier.

First race of the season in both the World Endurance Championship and Formula E won by Sébastien Buemi.

The only black mark on the name is
Sébastien Loeb, who only finished 2nd in the Dakar rally. Loser.

You've topped the leaderboard two days in. Woo woo. Keep it up for the week and we can discuss it.

Sorry. I get the most help from benadryl, pseudafed, and Afrin.

Chances point to rain all weekend, so we probably won't be discussing it come Sunday ;)

I think I topped the list once at some point after Trsnrtr's crash last year and before the Zwifters joined up.

Zwifters should have their own leaderboard.

As of last night, the forecast was 100% chance of rain during my typical late morning ride time. The morning dog walk told me that the forecast was wrong. Now the forecast doesn't show any rain 'til the afternoon and I'm scrambling to get out because I was totally unprepared because, well, 100%. :mad:

Not that I don't agree but it's bad form to speak ill of the dead.

+1. Not an ounce of sympathy from me on this one.

Part of me wonders if they'll find CTE in his brain, though.

I may never return. Massive weight gain after crash and having trouble reining it in. I'm easily 500 miles behind this time last year. Still riding, just not so far or as fast. :(
