Wow, I am very interested in seeing you do 40 miles on the Brompton Ari. How does it ride? Are the little tires and long ass "stem" twitchy on NYC streets?
Not really with the Vanilla Protein Powder. Kale still has some dirt flavor but the Spinach is not noticeable at all. Maybe some after taste.
The powder does overwhelm the fruits as well so you do end up with a lot of vanilla flavor.
So far:
Sherwood
Salt Peanuts
Emelius
Shelly
Raffy
Dinny
Nate
Brent
Jeff
Might not need two leagues this year, but I am guessing the people will come out of the woodwork soon to keep their old teams from last year.
^Nice.
I followed Shelly last night and put Peanut Butter in my post workout smoothie and found it goes really well with the vanilla protein powder, almond milk, strawberries and spinach.
Great day for a ride here today. Avg temp on the ride was 68. Bit of a rough ride coming off back and leg workout last night. I am worn out. Looks like some DBag went through and marked the majority of this route hazardous as well so Strava won't show me my previous times or the times of other riders.
Tonight post ride:
Tons of Spinach
Red and Green Kale
Almond Milk Vanilla
Protein Powder
Banana
Really tasty. Much better than I thought it would be based upon the level of green.
Got in a little ride after work. Went and uploaded to Strava to see my segments and it appears someone went through and marked every segment in my ride as Hazardous so they will not show the leader boards. I am guessing some asshole in the neighborhood is trying to keep people from speeding through but it is on a freaking trail and a lot of the hazardous parts are perfectly flat.
Went for a nice, humid as hell, ride this afternoon. Much cooler than the typical Florida ride but it seemed pretty damn warm whenever not moving out there today. Thought I was racing the storm but I should have stayed out longer as there is a bit of sun out now.
I was wondering about that after Mike posted his insurance acquaintance. I probably should update my home policy to specifically note the bikes. I guess I could go through the quote process there and see what the cost would be. It would probably end up being more than my car insurance.
Nevermind, $3100 a year with a $500 deductible.
Bike was 14lbs 13oz with the Zipps. About 3/4 of a pound lighter with these. I still think the Zipps will go back on the Cervelo and the Mad Fibers will go on the Calfee.
That sounds good Shelly.
I use the Spectrum Decadent Blend which is already ground Flax and Chia seeds with some cocoa and coconut and I just dump it in.
Only able to get a really short ride in today and it looks like rain might make any chance of a ride tomorrow nil. Rain is coming down now here.
The new wheels seem better able to fight crosswind than the Zipps but it seems like there is more flex in these than the 404s. Taking a pound off the bike doesn't really show much in the little ride I went out on.
Spent the morning putting the Cervelo on a diet. Not sure if I will keep the diet gear on the Cervelo or put it on the overweight Calfee. Probably at least upgrading the Calfee to Red from the Force that is on it now.
I am streaming a long playlist of Sonny Rollins in the office today. I am having trouble matching volume levels between straight Spotify and this different Spotify. There might be a bit of difference in sound quality but it is not dramatic on my little Stax system.
I do kind of miss my apps though.
