I'd assume phone alarm, and a pit crew member there as backup.
The hardest part of the race has to be the post-race interview. I had a good spot for Men's winner Kilian's interview and I dunno how he could sit there and answer questions after all that. I reckon that's part of getting paid though.

Although Mother's Day is not the reason for going. We will celebrate our anniversary while in Milan, buy thats just the timing and not the trip purpose. Just wanted a trip, and that's how the timing worked out.
Will put up some pics for sure.

Real feel.in Merida today was 50C. Somewhat less here. That is the forecast for the week. Our housekeeper took her daughter to the doctor today, and he had already seen 40 heatstroke victims.

That is living the life--not wasting a lot of time driving. Or being a gas hog like rjones28 .

Don’t believe Jello or a namesake has touched my lips in 30 years for the exact reasons you mention.
After Mrs RSbob’s fall, I have been driving her ID4 (7+ weeks) while watching gas prices rise. It is a very fun car with excellent cornering and blistering acceleration plus all the creature comforts. Re-sale value is in the toilet, but that’s ok since we drive our cars for a decade or more. Now that she is able to drive, I am back to premium fueled my 23 MPG SUV, but still steal her car whenever possible.
Today’s cycling content: hill climb day. Looking to do 3,000’ the easy and hard way (some gradual and some not so much). Now that’s it in print, I am (or should be) committed.

A bummer indeed. We love Lake Como and have stayed lakeside twice. A few years back we had the second part of a trip scheduled for Sorrento and Salerno, but heavy storms were forecast with thunderstorms, mud slides and road closures. We decided to change plans and head instead to the south of France and had a wonderful time where it was sunny and warm.
