one more thing to say to Buny.
Apart from the great race result, how the hell did you type all that on a phone with no typos? The kid's got talent.

oldies probably need to put on their reading glasses just to find their phones.

...I have a landline. I can find it without my glasses, because it is always wired into the same jack. #cellphones_are_of_the_devil

He runs a compact and normal cassette. But "junior" rules don't allow any cog smaller than 14. So he has to block out the 13, 12, 11. If he used the 13 with the 50 front, that would still be higher than a 53/14, so it is not allowed. Some of this is guessing on my part regarding the details, but that is the general idea, so-called junior gearing.

talking about excessively large communications implements, I realised today my newish phone is way too big for cycling. I used to have 3 places to put my phone:1) on a topeak stem mount, 2) saddle bag, 3) back pocket, 4) those dumbass arm bands that runners use to hold their phones.
Today I decided not to wear the cycling jersey (ok, they were all dirty because i got lazy with the laundry) so the back pocket option was out. I found that the new bigger phones do not fit any of the standard containers.

There are some nice jerseys on sale for $20 but they only have one pocket. I dunno if i could live with only one pocket.
