I've been away for a while, but it looks like people are still addicted to this thread.

Hi rando!

Pcad, if you left do you really think razor would find you and force you to re-join?

I also have a confession.

I bought a pair of these

The comfy-ness outweighs the shame.

You know you're tired when your HR drops to 57 bpm when you're on the bike descending a hill.

mzeffex 06-24-10 07:08 AM

It's 95-99 and humid today. I don't want to ride.

My average heart rate tends to be +-170 on a good ride. How's it feel to be old?

My average HR gets up in that range in races or fast rides like Nyack, not so much in training. My average in TTs tends to be 175-177.

When you're my age you'll be dead kid.

I passed on the commute to work and rode early in the morning instead. It was really humid and unpleasant at 6am, more unpleasant walking to the office so I'm glad I decided not to ride in.

I'm going for a ride anyway. Might be short (20 miles or so) but better than nothing. I barely rode yesterday.

I'm just yankin' your chain.

That never happened.

What's really strange is that until you are death camp skinny, you still look fat in lycra. When you're like 10 lbs underweight, you look normal in bike clothes, otherwise you look chubby.

God help me this sport is totally effed.

This tennis match is still going (I'm assuming it's live).

I hope it goes another day.

mzeffex 06-24-10 09:41 AM

I just did 16.5 miles. All that I could take in this friggin heat.

i heard theres a marathon game going on where a set has broken the whole match time record. but football trumps stupid tennis any day.

Velo Vol 06-24-10 09:50 AM

Oh noes!! It's over.
