sell my fixie acquire raleigh rx 1.0 transfer sram parts to my roadie, 105 parts to the raleigh. for multiple reasons (crankset match, 105 stuff is beat up/more durable, sram is lighter) acquire new wheels look cool, maybe win a road race. blame sram if i don't. race cyclocross and have fun stock disc wheels add like a pound, but as far as resale value and future component compatibility are concerned, disc is the way to go for cross |

So my Park PRS-20 came today.
Holy **** is that a nice stand. Weighs like 30 pounds, and the only plastic is the knobs. Pretty impressed. |
Today Irode the dmr hard and had a good time doing it.

Today I noticed that Dan pretty much posts the same thing every day.

This happened today a few blocks from my old place, picture isn't me but whoa. Its been less than 10 degrees all day. This is the Hennepin Ave bridge in Minneapolis. A 36" water main broke and flooded the area. Almost the whole downtown area's water is shut off.

Today I rode 80ish miles. I stopped the strava recording early because my phone was dying.
My longest ride to date. Im tired and cold. |
i think around 80 miles is a the sweet spot for "long rides"
|
I wish I had brought food along. I had to stop a couple times after like 70 miles because I was so hungry. I finally found a convenience store at 77ish miles, and got a snickers bar and a kit kat. I also should have worn a jacket.
|
yeah lol. food is good.
|
Screw all that, rule # 5
|
And a little more cold weather gear. I can't feel my hands or feet right now because of the cold. I'm also shivering uncontrollably right now. No bueno.
OH. And I have tan lines from my bibs now :D |

I'm no stranger to weird ass tan lines. I had a super bad sunglasses tan that changed into a hat tan, with a bad bro tank tan and sock tan that are still here from Aug 11th.
And my speedo tan from last may is still here. |
you wear speedos lololol
|
Its comfortable. And every guy on the swim team does, so its not a big deal.
