We'll have to see how it plays out but those two simply crushed that climb.

Thanks Greg. I'm really happy with that since I had to walk the bike across a pretty long bridge and the Garmin counted that as time/pace since the rear wheel was spinning. Tomorrow will be an MTB day and Monday I hope to get a commute in. Glad you got out Chris but I bet it was hot. I need to find a way to carry more water on the bike. I had to actively manage intake today and ran out with two miles to go.

Is the sigma22 the preferred power supply for the squarewave?

Very interesting turn of events.

Hmmm, might have to check this out.

Well done, Kevin.

Yeah, yeah, I was just being equally douchey with the whole, "humid is faster" stuff. I certainly sweat plenty this morning, but it was worth it. Ride Data Scenery

Both true, but humid air is less dense so in truth, you should be faster (less drag) And Boo, too bad you don't live closer. I hope to get 50 in tomorrow morning too. Should be interesting since like Jeff the forecast is for 90% humidity at 6am. Blech.

Humid air makes you faster.

Mowed today so that I can ride early tomorrow. If all goes to plan I'll hit the road shortly after 5:30 before the temps start to really climb. It's currently 90 on the second floor of the house.

No worries but thanks for the offer. I don't have the amp back in my possession yet so there's no rush whatsoever.

Happy Birthday Birgir!

Happy birthday to my Southern Lawyer! Have fun on vacation. Sorry that we dialed up the same weather that you were probably trying to get away from.

I'm hoping to have a go at stuffing one of the tiny PS boards into the exstata when it returns stateside.

Did 24 effing hot miles today from our house over to see some friends. Thank god they have a pool - the average for the ride was 90F and i was predictably off my usual pace.

Like Gene I somehow missed this thread. Happy belated birthday!

Raf really needs a new frame, unfortunately. The endurance road setup just isn't really suited to his style so I think it's probably just time to bite the bullet and get what you want, Raffy.

That's an impressive average to still be moving at 16mph. I'd guess I'd be a good 20bpm higher. I really try to only look at it after a ride is over unless I'm trying to specifically make sure that I'm not over doing it. But more and more often I'm trying to just go out and ride at a pace that feels comfortable and not look at my HR or speed for the entire ride.

Glad you're enjoying it, Jacob. I can't wait to get my dynamic rig sorted in a month or so.

I don't think it'd be physically possible for me to ride with that max HR.

Happy belated, Greg!!

I thought the L2 sounded fantastic.

I guess I haven't really shopped SSDs recently so if they've gotten a lot better in $/GB ratios I see the logic. I also agree that I'd run a relatively small OS drive and leave bulk storage to the spinny drives until large capacity, affordable SSDs are the norm.

Yes, that's what I'd do. I guess what I was kindi of saying is that I don't get the point of the speed or expense of an SSD for a media server that is largely going to sit idle or have what I would assume to be really limited processing or read/write demands on a daily basis.

Those views do look nice, Mike. I can't wait to take a semi-vacation in a couple of weeks. I don't get to take the whole week off (change of command at work) but will be off most of the week thankfully.
