  1. Or don't worry about it at all We are all in it for the fun of it. Go the pace you can go and push yourself and if you get faster cool, if not cool too.
  2. Well I'll hopefully be picking up one very soon for my wife and I'll let you know if how much if any can get freed up. Also note that it has a SD slot so adding 64gb storage should be straightforward and pretty cheap.
  3. It is a full blown computer that's the point of the pro. That's why I compared it to an Air. Even on Android Tablets the OS takes up significant space. I have no clue about Apple tablets.
  4. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3633027?start=0&tstart=0 Got it from there. One guy says 90.4gb after about 2gb of apps.
  5. That's how it goes. I did a quick search and a 128 gb Air has about 86-95 gb of free space after os and a few apps. I did get that from the Internet though so it may not be true.
  6. So I remembered Rule #5 (HTFU) and went out riding with a teammate for 40 miles where the temperature never rose over 36 degrees. Was a great ride though. It was a recovery ride for him and he dropped me on the hills. Oh well, I'm not racing this year anyway. Edit: Here's the data: http://www.trainingpeaks.com/av/NYVOPZPDVCCVPQOJGGMVQUGXZE
  7. Congrats on 39 years. That is awesome.
  8. Fox F29 FIT RLC fork and there is no kit you apparently have to send it to the factory for a full rebuild. I have asked if they are going to upgrade the fork to the latest internals etc for the money but I doubt it. If it does I may consider it.
  9. Left my house at 5:50 am to go and check on the roof work done at vacation place and make sure that the water was off with all the cold weather. I also needed to return $150 in attic insulation that wasn't used. Went smoothly and I got back home less than 3 hours later. I also saw that the lake is almost back to its usual level after they drained it down 6ft to do work on the dam. Its going to be a fun summer with the family on the boat.
  10. Mike I was under the impression that mtb people prefer short stems for twisty trails because they steer faster. I guess you just mean that the technical stuff doesn't involve as much endurance. Got word that my dropper seat post is at the store. Very interested to try it out sometime when it gets warmer. I also got word that to get a remote lockout installed on my fork would cost like $450 which is probably not a sensible investment considering how little I ride mountain.
  11. Nice Mike! It's just below freezing here with tins of salt on the road so I doubt I will be riding outside.
  12. Happy Belated Birthday!
  13. USA built watch http://shinola.com/
  14. Happy birthday!
  15. You are doing great Jeff! Those hills will get a bit easier after more riding. Compact crankset and wider range cassette will help too.
  16. It's on then. I need to be back home by 11:30.
  17. Jeff want to ride tomorrow? I could meet you out at that point on the trail at 9 am or so?
  18. Great job on the weight loss Vicki and good luck with getting up to speed. I'm stress eating like mad and stuck up about 10lbs above my lowest weight. I will keep trying though.
  19. Done. Good on you! I would be interested in joining you depending on the timing.
  20. Happy birthday!
  21. Jeff I had a great time too and it was a great workout. You are faster than you think.
  22. The GW Parkway trail is narrower than the W&OD and will likely be rather busy but it is enjoyable. If you want to meet up on Sunday morning somewhere I would be up for that but tomorrow morning I have lake house stuff to deal with.
  23. Just ride further Jeff it gets nicer further out. Or you can go in and ride Rock Creek Parkway which is nice but hilly.
  24. Sorry Dusty. Hang in there.
