Coincidentally, my wife's Mom's name was Nancy, and my wife also has a CD of the music from Evita.

Yeah, I probably have the same Mercer. It's fine, but I wish that I would have gotten a Tojiro.

The top 6 are within a minute. The woman who got knocked off by her team car yesterday is in 10th As bad as her day was she only lost a minute and a half.
The one who took the wrong turn today was given the same time as the group she was with.

A beta blocker will really reduce your max HR and thus lower your top end on the bike. It might be medically necessary, but you may wish to discuss with him/her.
I sometimes joke that the best way to beat your friends on a ride is not to take a PED, but rather, slip a little beta blocker into their water bottles.

He doesn't listen. He's an associate of my regular doc. HIs nurse confirmed my allergies. He prescribed something that I was allergic to. The pharmacy caught it. I told him my pacemaker acted weird. I climbed almost 2,000 feet with an avg. heart rate of 102. i walk through the house and it might be 123. He says "your pacemaker responds to your efforts".

There’s always so much room for error built into these guidelines, on top of a healthy dose of politics, I always proceed cautiously, like maybe wear one for a week or two more.

We haven't had a mandate, in open areas, for a couple months, and folks won't take them off. I had thought it was just the rural, uneducated areas, but it's the same in the city. It's shocking. When I go for my rides, I have to wear one on my chin, just so it shows and I don't get the stinkeye. There are folks out there on motorcycles fully masked. They won't fasten the chinstraps on their (required) helmets and they won't take off their masks.

Am I the only one doing reverse Wordle? Trying to figure out what others guessed based on their grids.
