Well, either it was the 88 degree temps, or I overdid it yesterday, or both, but instead of feeling like a god on the bike, I felt more like a dog on the bike. Bleah. Still better than not riding, but I don't think I got a good measure of the capabilities of the bike, in this case the Circuit. Still did slightly better than the last time I rode this route on this bike, but I felt much worse. Not heat acclimated yet.

When I went to my LBS for the shift cable, they had a doppelganger hanging in the work area. I hadn't even realized that they'd picked up Allied; must have been a covid acquisition.
Oh, and shift cable replaced - no new bike

Unrelated to your problems, but my Garmin 1030 wouldn't recognize the gizmo that sends DI2 data to my 1030. Then, 20 miles later, the 1030 lost my PM signal followed by my HR strap and my Varia tail light. About 2 miles later, it stopped recording, saved my ride to that point and even uploaded to Strava. I restarted the ride and only got distance and speed for the next 11 miles or so.
I've never had a Garmin that didn't do weird stuff and I've owned a lot of them.

Golf is bad. I have to admit Curling is worse. Especially when you don't understand what the hell is going on. I refuse to study the rules and/or strategies. I should be able to figure it out by watching. But no. I've managed for 20 years of occasional winter time Sunday viewing to not be any more knowledgeable about it than when I first saw it on the CBC. Still..... there will be a Sunday this winter, I'll wake up from an unscheduled nap with the TV on and it'll be Curling. And I'll sit there for a hour watching the brooms swat the ice. The screams of, "HARD!" Over and over. For zero effect.

my buddy broke another spoke. today. This has to be the 12th time if not more. Last time, he was suppose to do a century with me (last monday). We were rolling on the cap trail and snap! front spoke snapped. He didnt continue the ride and once he got home determined all the spokes were over torqued. Readjusted and today he broke another one 2 miles in on a ride.
I told him to trash the wheels, but he is determined to find out why this is happening.

They are Dt swiss wheels. Came from a bike in a crash, but the wheels were not damaged or there is no apparent damage. LBS head mechanic relaced them before my friend started riding them. He bought these wheels becuase his other wheels kept breaking spokes too. He’s roughly 210 ish, the other weird thing is it’s not just one wheel breaking spokes it’s both wheels at different times.(front and rear) He took it to the mechanic the first couple of times, but since they kept breaking he started working on it himself.

I can relate. Sooooooo frustrating! Especially when the finger pointing starts. "It's hardware"...."it's software" .....it's "user error". And no one steps up and takes responsibility for the problem they created for you due to a change on thier end. Like when Garmin connect made changes and suddenly Strava would no longer take auto updates. Or when my Kinetic trainer suddenly wouldn't play with Strava or Garmin. I later found out it was due to a decision by Kinetic to go with proprietary software that wouldn't interference with anyone else. After I purchased 2 of thier units for off season training. Bastards....

I did a soft reset when I got home and the Varia is connected again but I haven't tried the other sensors yet.

Today, my 1030 connected everything but my Shimano wu111 inline thingie which it worked fine with for over 500 miles. Then, 18 miles into the ride, it decides that it didn't like my Varia TL and no amount of trying to get it to re-pair failed.
