Being in that zone and keeping it from happening are two entirely different things.

What are you worried about? That she doesn't want to be with you? Better to find out now instead of after 5yrs

No, Armadillos are special. I've seen every kind of roadkill possible in the US. (I've ridden by dead goats, cattle, sheep, and every small animal known to the Central US) And Armadillos have a special kind of stink.

They can't be more "special" than a dead skunk.

common roadkill here. Watch out for them. The scales can cause a puncture. And they stink when they are dead.

I generally try to steer clear of all roadkill regardless of scales.

At least he wouldn't have to pay to get rid of her now. Five years from now he would have to give her half his stuff.

Well for now you'll have to settle for a new bicycle.

I've got a bunch of new bike hand wringing to do. No better place than the 41.

I need (italics) a bike for my other house (first world problems). Dragging my race bike back and forth with a dog, kid with guitars and friends, and groceries just doesn't work. Compounding the issue is my race bike is quite long in the tooth. Heck, I'm still on 7800. Compounding the compounding is that no one has come forth offering me new bikes :/

I could get an exceptional deal on a Giant Ultegra (mechanical) composite that would nicely do duty up there as a bike I'd ride Whiteface with and the once a week I typically ride up there. It could have a compact which would be nice for that. It might not have power data though, which would be a demerit.

I could wait and build a new race bike, though I couldn't really afford something of the quality I have now. I'd have to go with an Advanced (no SL) and an outdated DA group. 7800 or (gasp) 7900 (smh). I could go with Ulterga Ui2 and put my 7800 DA SRM on there.

Not sure how good an idea it would be to swap horses in mid stream though. New race bike with the season under way? Might be better off waiting until the fall and punting.

A good hand wringing session ends in absolute inactivity.
