Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I got that email too. I have no need for Campy hydro at this time.

Snuck in a quick ride on the wet MUP this evening. Puddles are fun with full fenders. I tried to obey the 15MPH speed limit but I could not restrain myself.

You were bit by a dog? Do you know it's rabies vaccination status?

If you don't, you should be seen by a physician to discuss rabies prophylaxis.

To answer your questions:
1. Once you develop neurologic signs, you'll be dead within 11 days.
2. Prior to the development of neuro signs, the time is variable. Rarely, years. More commonly a few weeks.

Plenty of times still to get your affairs in order.
