As I recall, you've been the only person to complain about the heat. I like it hot.

However, we do need rain. A couple weeks @ 90F without it really isn't good for anything.

not me brother! 65 miles in 97 degree heat today I had to stop twice and load up on fluids. freaking awsome!!!! I love it



but I am really wiped out right now.

moaning about the weather is a national sport.

And hungry.

Bout to go on a ride! + Got my racing license! + 1st race Thursday probs! + New helmet!

time to move on to 33 and don't look back.

I like the hot weather. The lack of rain is a bit of a drag. For example our underground sprinklers are useless because the well can't keep up with the water flow requirements. That's OK. The lawn gets crispy brown. By October it looks like a golf course again. I'm more worried about sustaining water pressure for showers and laundry than watering the stupid lawn.

You would think that with all that snow melt from late February (see photo above) and rain in March and April, the water table would be high, but we haven't had much rain in the past 90 days.

Hey pcad, since you ride so much and also run shimano ultegra. How are your bottom brackets holding up? have yoou had any trouble with it? Service? I have 2 6600 that are driving me nutz, The madone has a click and now my lightspeed has developed a clunk when out of the saddle. I am running out of bikes.

I rode the Tuesday/Thursday night group route (plus a detour over to the river) at a blazing 14.7 mph today. There is some great scenery that I've never noticed before. The Garmin said the average temp was 100.2 F*.

Going slow is ok.

My dog is really, really, bad. But he is mine and is the best dog I've ever known.

Delay: Have to send in the STUPID waiver :mad:... 1st race will probably be next week.

Nice dog + That chicken looks really yummy. I have a Jack Russel, quite the handful.

A stupid newb question (probably). Did a search and can't search by just 2 numerals so asking here - what does 33 and 41 groups refer to that I see referenced a lot?

Remember - bike and bike culture newb.

your dog eats so healthily.

Back out of this thread, then look at the url and what do you see? That'll answer half your question.

it's how the cool kids refer to the forums.

33 = fast, cool cyclists

41 = nerdy, slow reject cyclists

Hey Razor, do I get some sort of certificate for joining the Trek club?

why? I'm hurt.

I named my cyclo-computer pcad, because every time I look at it it's like there's somebody yelling at me that I'm slow.

Yah, the long breakaway was awesome. Kind of disappointing that we never got to see the peleton try to chase him down though. Fabian probably at least stays in yellow if his teammates (and everyone else) didn't crash. That's a big what if though, obviously. Good to see the QuickStep guys take all the jerseys in their home country.

I believe pretty much everything stayed as it was except Chavanel got the yellow. Chased or not he deserved it.

I guess that means I need to name my bathroom scale Pcad too.
