Does it very often happen that a patient who appears to be in good health unexpectedly/rapidly dies?

Got a couple of good panning shots.

What is ijen's last name?

Looks like she's well into the ride.

How's the wind today?

Almost got my ass bit again on this country 50 miler. What is the best mace for dogs? I'm done with this whole cat mouse game, I'm going to end up spraying 2 dogs per ride, ridiculous.

There is a thread over in General right now. I haven't read it.

But you don't do sunscreen.

[MENTION=29415]BillyD[/MENTION] Syracuse beat Clemson last night. They might not be the right color orange but they didn't lose to South Carolina today 15-9.:(

A brisk 72°A, and the sun has been up for awhile. I'll make an effort to not whine so much about the cold. I wonder if I should get a balaclava.

Brrr

Not often. Sometimes a serious diagnosis comes suddenly though.

I can't tell you for sure, but the common 3.3 mm size used in the USA and Europe is now ALMOST universal. Goes with the BLACK Park spoke wrench. If the nipples are DT or Sapim, they are almost surely that standard size. Maybe some variation in Japan, but I have had green and red wrenches for 35 years and never used them.

I occasionally use the red one.

Looks like AG is nearly done with the bike.

Kudos are deserved.

If you really need to know, send me a PM.

seedsbelize 10-14-17 06:22 PM

She's closing in on Jen Keith, who was well ahead of her at the start of the bike.

Busy day today. Worked the morning. Snuck out for a 2 hour solo ride. Then Mrs datlas and I drove to Philly, we did a little bit of walking around and had our anniversary dinner. She had trout, I had pan seared gnocchi. It was excellent.

That's weird about the wrench colors but good to know about the sapim and DT Swiss nipples. I guess I'll order some.

This one isn't color coded.

datlas 10-14-17 06:45 PM

So AG is now on the run.

Drove to Philly with Mrs. rjones28. She had a recording session.

In other news, Reynolds has been making carbon stuff for a long time.

The guy that owns the shop, where I work P/T, worked at Reynolds BITD.
