Sadly I can't prove that the vaccine won't cause people to grow antlers five years from now.

There is one thing for sure - if you're dead you won't ever grow antlers.

Hope you don't get a defective one and start growing antlers.

When your 1600 sq ft postwar ranch house on 1/3 of an acre is worth >1.5 million, everything else seems cheap.

We were considering Austin once the kids move to college, but after looking at the real estate prices decided maybe to check out other cities. We still have the house in Marblehead that we'll unload when we move for a good penny, but I'm not really interested in paying a million bucks for a house in the city that's 900SF.

That is not the correct answer.
Then I would only be down to one bike, which is absurd, and when I got another bike I would only be at 2 bikes.
Creaky BB is a problem with the BB not the bike right? Really sad if my china wheels lived longer than my cervelo frame, just saying.

SS is great, as you know.

On the opposite end, I set a new 20 min mark for myself this morning. Sadly, it's below my FTP estimate; it'd be nice be closer to more open roads and have fewer interruptions to efforts.

Same with people smudging out license plates in photos. I never understood the privacy worry when we drive around with our plates in plain sight.

A cycling buddy of mine lives in Menlo Park. I looked at Zillow and the price you state is about right. That's nuts.

I signed up for this the other day, looks like it's going to be a good time:

also have a 66 miler with 6K on 8/15, it's something like 90% gravel. Better replace those gravel kings soon

I saw a meme today that went something like, “You’ve been eating processed food all your life but you won’t get the vaccine because you don’t know what’s in it?”

there is a huge chip shortage at the moment. You may have to wait for a while.

Interestingly, my eFTP is stuck where it was in early Spring and significantly lower than last year, but I'm also faster than last year, i.e. probably more efficient in some way.

I'm finally starting to feel like I'm approaching the shape that I was in last year. Like you, my eFTP is about where it was in the Spring, but I've been feeling much better during hard efforts and it may just be that I haven't had the opportunity to really uncork it for an uninterrupted 3+ minutes.
