There's a topic? :foo:

It's my turn to show off my cute puppy

I leave for a few days and yet another Doug shows up. What's with you people?

Cute pup.

Cycling related content: when trying on bibs at the store, do you put your sack on the chamois or does etiquette and/or hygiene dictate underwear?

Snug lycra boxers. Come on, man...

And that's definitely "and". Etiquette and hygiene...

Not bibs with drawers.

Do it. Hurty fun for sure.

Do as you're told and no one gets hurt.

After reading your post, I probably won't be able to sleep tonight. Thanks a lot. :mad:

My day started with being shaken awake by Mr H with him saying, "you're supposed to be on the bike RIGHT NOW". Yikes why didn't my alarm go off (which is usually unnecessary anyway)?? Oh it *was* going off and had been for 30 min apparently.

Up & Adam and out the door on the bike 10 min later, after gulping down a cup of black coffee.

Rest of the day went pretty much like that, three pick ups from the emergency service and an overbooked schedule. Crazy day, it was one thing after another continuously. The price I pay for going on vacation.

Aero testing is Sat night. Should be interesting/fun.

I throw on a pair of compression shorts.

Dan, LAJ and Heath,and rjones

Thanks for the replies on the puppy( He is actually 7 years old) he was a rescue dog that was left with us by the daughter. Best thing she ever did for me even though I was pissed at the time. He is a Jack Russell - beagle mix even though that picture is very beagle-ish.

Dan,

Doug's are quiet but sneaky. :beer: watch out for us.

I take back everything I said about the heat. 93 degrees and humid here, I blew up so hard on our group ride today. Followed the pack for 15 miles, last 14 were just redline heart rate and 15mph. Damn.

What's there to discuss for 27 pages in a cycling forum?

I can't quantify that. It is too subjective of a measure. I enjoy riding it if that helps.
