I have the Anova. It works really well and it’s pretty idiot proof. I just bought a square tub with a lid, cut a hole for the Anova and set it up in the sink. I have a Foodsaver that I use to vacuum seal, but been looking pretty seriously at the chamber sealers. Although I have used the ziploc bag submerged in water method too and it works well enough to cook no problem.

Yes, always mooaarrr voltz

This one even has a power button where the battery runs flat after only 10 minutes. It's all about the power too.

Sounds like she can really blow.

Will it suck too?

Old friends in DEN delivering oldest daughter to college. Met in Castle Rock for teh beerz. Good times. I suspect rest of the week will be lots of driving to/from Denver and shenanigans.

Apparently there is no way to make a 7:50 flight in Vegas if you get up at 7:30.

Everest is for monocles. Go climb K2.

Did you miss his PolandSprings login trip to Everest?

'Morning. I've been a fat lazy turd this week and have gained a few pounds while getting more sleep. I regret nothing...it's been a much needed sloth week. I'll be back to running a lot starting this weekend. I've got a marathon in nine weeks.

sup yo.
a couple kids in the GE building next to mine spend their lunch breaks on their jibbing bikes practicing manuals further increasing my want for a nice hardtail to jib the world on...plus some pump track action.

 

[TN]

Right now I am using a janky cooler, a water pump and an electric roasting pan.

If I like how it comes out I will spend the 100 bucks on the stand alone unit that sticks to any bucket/pan.

Really looking forward to the smell that's gonna fill the house when I give it the final sear

Giddy like a school girl. Whistler trip #2 in T minus 3 days. Only two more days to get through at work. Tuned up and packed the bike. Almost have everything ready to roll.

It snowed there this week. How much longer is their bike season?

 

[skibunny24]

/Quote everyone: blah blah blah the weather is sooooo warm and wonderful here..../

I think I'll make a fire tonight. More house cleaning and attempting caulking if it dries out a bit. Correct, it is too wet to caulk.

@kazlx have a blast! we went up once this year, and if I had a job we'd be up there again. Make some runs up top for me! Also, I hear Top of the World is worth the extra $

Yeah, I'm stoked to ski too! Just one more weekend on water before the lake closes, then I'm ready for the snow! It's the in between season that's hard, though I don't mind riding in the mud one bit... or fires in the wood stove! We keep it around 85 in the house year round that way...

I keep it 66 in the house during winter. Would go colder but the dog starts to shiver.

Southwest was super easy...got on the next flight with no issues. And everything was smooth back to DO A.

Waiting now for the train to break down or something...

 

[Full Trucker]

You'd be waiting for a few minutes for me at the bottom, I think I'm about 16minutes at my I don't want to die or run anyone over speed. (Enchanted sign to gate at the bottom.)

Ah right... well, this is the part where I tell you that your definition of the start/end of Enchanted to the Gut (while understandable in some sense and certainly respectable) is not the same definition that I use. I go with the most popular Strava segment, which starts right after the first corner of E.F. and ends where the Gut meets the entrance trail i.e. where Argos diverges.

Personally, I would start it where the GiddyUp did, which is a few feet after the sign at top. The Enchanted sign sits in the middle of the clearing right there, and isn't the best start IMO. That first corner should count, dammit! But no way would I sprint all the way to the gate at the bottom... that section of trail always has someone on it... no need for those shenanigans. Giddyup actually ended somewhere above where the Strava segment does... kind of an arbitrary place really.

My wife is at Big Sky and it's dumping snow at the resort. As long as it stays up there

 

[rideit]

We are supposed to get up to 20" up high.
Probably shut down the high country for the season (unless you wanna fat bike or ride when it's frozen)
Getting more psyched for Fruab!

So no Palmer on Saturday for you?

Also, wasn't that toshi?

I climb indoors only.

I'm way less Asian than Toshi.

And he's not even all that Asian.

I'm half! That counts. I have my quarter-Japanese kids trained to identify as Japanese. "But mommy's not Japanese." Yes, that's right.

So far today I have dropped off the Land Cruiser for a paintless dent repair and polish job, picked up my 5010 (warrantied brake levers--I didn't think they were bad to begin with, new pads front and rear, new DU bushing for shock, and re-trued and -tensioned wheels), made an obligatory appearance for an hour and change at work (visiting lecturer in my subspecialty), and now am hanging out at home with the 4.5 year old as the 2 year old naps.

It'd be a great day if only I didn't sign up to work 5-10 PM tonight.

 

[StiHacka]

icked up my 5010 (warrantied brake levers--I didn't think they were bad to begin with, new pads front and rear, new DU bushing for shock, and re-trued and -tensioned wheels)

Dude, you put a lot of wear and tear on your new bike, how much do you ride? I ride 6-7x week depending on the weather, do 2-2.5k miles/year yet I never had to replace DU bushings on any of my shocks, my brake pads last 3+ years and my wheels stay true despite me being a talentless hack. OTOH, I kill 2-3 sets of tires per season.

In other news, both cars passed state inspection without a hiccup. #stressfulseptember

 

[DirtyMike]

Final results.....

wife unit asked me to add a little more salt, but I believe it was just perfect. Was a little past my liking for done, but that's all adjustable.

Seared on the grill for one minute a side, perfect crust, nice and juicy, super smokey flavor.........

Already ordered an actual unit for next time.......

Talked with Wifey about things to keep Haley busy at home during winter and once rd. 2 shows up. I think I'm going to try and get a climbing wall put up in the basement. Probably 15ft wide, going from vertical to maybe 30* overhang on 5ft lengths (or however wide the plywood sections are). I tried arguing to have it upstairs in the "unused" 4th bedroom that I think should be a gym and storage, but lost that battle.

Metolius has a good guide on construction on their webpage. It's what I followed and it worked well.

This year I made it out 19 times (will be 20 this weekend) and I do far fewer miles than you, 7-10 miles per pop typically. On the other hand, I'm fat, hit things hard, and those 7-10 miles usually have at least 1400 vertical associated with them, because Colorado.

Number of bikes in the household = N + 1

Need to get a front brake for it, no barspins in mine or wife's near future.
