Let's do it!

 

Diabolical Double and later on, the Alpine Loop Gran Fondo? I'm up for it.

 

For lodging I guess we could split a lodge/suite/condo/whatever...

    What's in da baaaahhhhhxxxxx? Some parts. Darker blue than we thought. Happiest kid in the world in this moment. **BRENT**

  • Liked the Turbo Vado Super Light so much, I bought another one in Michigan. Same silver and black. We couldn't find Claire an SL in Northern Michigan or online so we got her the  regular Turbo Vado 5.

  • I bought an e-bike. Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 Super Light 2022 edition. Claire got a 4.0 step-through.

I ordered smooooooth and hopefully fast Schwalbe Kojak Brompton tires in preparation for the spring. 

I don't think that scar is very visible or large, which I think is a good thing. Does it still hurt?

 

Large scars are manly and enhance one's character. ;)

 

Here's mine after 2 months:

Justin, glad to hear that you didn't set off the metal detector.  Less metal was put into me, so hopefully I won't set them off either.

Wow, two months already! That one looks good too. How're you feeling?

I'm feeling good.  My surgeon removed all limitations last Friday.  My shoulder is a bit stiff and sore, but it's improving rapidly.  I'm scheduled to get some physical therapy.  My pelvis breaks have all healed well too.

 

I feel good enough to do a street ride.  I'm not quite up to a dirt ride yet. :)

 

 

I should see if Dianese or anybody else makes such a thing for motorcycling.  I'd get one.

Heal up, Justin.

 

So the Gunnar is sold.  I took a bath, but it went to a lady I actually like, so that counts for a lot in my book.

 

I've been on the Computrainer four days a week for three weeks now.  I suck.

I was thinking just get up early but maybe a hotel room is a good idea. I will put it on my to do list to sign up.

This is on my radar but 125 miles with a shitload of climbing seems too ambitious this time of year to be honest. Any interest in the metric?

Probably a bit ambitious but I'm going to try to train for it. Worst case scenario, the courses are all the same up till the 45 mile marker...

I can be flexible but I'm going to aim for the full on crazy :) Worst comes to worst we can ride together for 45/50 miles.

Arm twisted. I need shorts badly and don't have a favorite. 36$ shipped with tax (new to TN) for two pairs, can't pass that up. Thanks!

There was also a pair of Canari shorts for ~22/each in all sizes with prime shipping if anyone was interested. Almost out of the Sugoi but there seems to be plenty of stock on the other.

Most excellent news, Ken. I'm very glad for you. Attend the PT, it works wonders :)

was thinking about the sugois... from what I read, these run small, hope you ordered accordingly L

I got the largest they had. If I don't fit then I guess I should just lose some weight, no?

**BRENT**

I was happy with the way the RPM and Neo shorts I bought last year fit.

After checking the size charts I can see why people could think they run small.

(the Amazon chart is on the left in the image below)

Just confirming with Meaghan but I'll probably register for the double today.

 

Edit: Done! :)

I just finished registering for the double. What have I gotten myself into?!  :laugh:

First ride of 2014 is in the books. A slow 17 miler but it felt good to be back out there.

Wait was this on the Calfee?

Wait was this on the Calfee?

No, I took the Roubaix as the roads are not great and I still need to do a full fitting on the calfee. I did a few rides on the calfee last year, enough to know I needed to change a few things before riding it much more. Now that the weather is turning a bit I'll schedule some time at my shop and get the calfee dialed in.

Makes sense Nate. I figured but I didn't know if I'd missed you getting your fitting done.

 

This ride in June is going to be a monster: 4x the distance I did yesterday: no biggie. Over 10x the climbing: :eek:

 

Excited to have a goal though.
