Roka has Transitions lenses now. That'll be the ticket for morning runs.

I just watched the end of the women's road race. I don't want to spoil it but the woman who won is a total badass.

I heard there was a "controversial" move by the winner late in the Men's race but I didn't see it. I watched the last lap and the highlights. Sad to see MVDP crash early.

Weather update:
Repeat of yesterday, heavy rain and lightning.
Also: the Pirates manager, the pitching coach and the bench coach were thrown out for arguing balls and strikes. They are leading 4-3 in the bottom of the 6th.

I enjoy riding gravel. If I had a bike more suited to it I would do it more. I only have road bikes, granted one that will take 32mm tyres. The hitch is that that bike sports the Ishiwata death fork, so I'm reticent to take it off pavement. However, Bob plans to bring me one from Maine when he visits next winter.

The incident happened in the XCC, and the controversy was surrounding the 3rd place finisher of that race. That guy won the XCO race yesterday. From what I saw (watched multiple times from different angles), it was a competitive move by a determined competitor fighting for a place on the podium. He beat the rider who had been ahead of him into the last corner, and they tangled on the exit. IMO, it was a “racing incident”.

There are no motor vehicles to contend with on gravel
