Nice Todd, glad you're getting to sample the L-2 and enjoying it. No doubt that Doug's customer service is phenominal.

Just my 2¢, I wouldn't worry much about getting up to distances like 5 miles for a long time (like next year). Do your joints a favor and stick to shorter, slower runs until you bring your weight down. I'm pretty sure ramping up speed too quickly caused my knee injury two years ago. Maybe shoot for 3 in 30 or something like that. Your heart will probably appreciate it too.

Justified I love this show.

Brent, If you were closer I'd offer the Thorens that's been sitting in my closet for 3 years.

Definitely not a trivial image to capture, that's for sure. Well done, Peter.

Fuuuuuu @ Dinny, hope the recovery is swift. Congrat to Dan, employment is good.

runkeeper and mapmyride are both good and have apps for the iPhone.

Nice Vicki!

Speaking of rides I managed to get back out again today, for a little shorter loop than last weekend. And took Lily and Andrew to a Touch-a-Truck charity event.

Let's move this to PM.

I've got a first gen Droid Incredible sitting at home that could probably be had for very cheap. It's spent it's entire life in a case with a screen protector so it looks like new (and still has the case with it).

Happy Birthday Zach!

Happy Birthday!

I really need to look into re-fi'ing again before rates go up. It's been on my to-do list for 6 months... Sweet ride, Chris.

Happy Birthday!

If I still used headphones in the office I'd strongly consider these.

The books are so effing long I just coudn't stay with reading/listening to them. So far the only thing that Martin seems to be the master of is the protracted story arc ended in spectacularly frustrating fashion (I'd go into specifics, but can't manipulate spoiler tags from work). I can't even remember what book I stopped at anymore... but I don't want that sort of long term frustration in my television viewing, despite the boobs to occassionally cheer me up.

Yup, I prefer the Garmin and got the whole route thing worked out yesterday which was cool. If you have questions just sk and I'll try to help.

It was a nice ride, but would have been much nicer today with temps in the mid 50's and sun. Oh well, it only took an hour for my feet to thaw. As for the map, I use another program in addition to the Garmin to track rides called Runkeeper. It uses the GPS on the phone which I always have with me anyway. But you can get very similar stuff using Garmin connect. Another option, and one that I use to plan rides, is Mapmyride which is very similar to Runkeeper but has a great web interface to help plan rides. The route that I planned yesterday was pretty convoluted and I never would have thought to weave my wall through all of that to get to 25miles. It was nice to minimize the time on major roads.

The wife took the kids down to her parents today for an Easter egg hunt and I was granted a hall pass. So I vacuumed, did laundry, took one of the cars to get inspected, did some grocery shopping and oh yeah, decided that 44 and snow flurries was the perfect weather combination for a 25 mile ride. It's the farthest I've gone by far but I hope to do a two day century at the end of the summer so I figured I'd better start putting a few miles in.

Happy Birthday, Doug!!

I do miss the combination of the O2 and BHse. And I'm sorry, Audeze has completely lost my interest at this point with Vx of this/that and the other thing. At this price point (and substantially below it for that matter) I expect a polished, finished product that won't need to be revised/tweaked immediately after release.
