Beware the mudslides...
Yeah it's called "running for your life, whoopsie didn't make it"There just HAS to be a new extreme sport involving surfing the mudslides…
waverunner?Yeah it's called "running for your life, whoopsie didn't make it"
“MUDBULL RAMPAGE”Yeah it's called "running for your life, whoopsie didn't make it"
why are you complaining? Should be easy to solder in a new one.So I took an old Remington trimmer apart because it was taking 2 days to charge the damn thing long enough to use it for 5 minutes... and those motherfuckers simply *soldered* a rechargeable AA battery in there.
I mean, FFS.
Good advice if you are at risk for overtraining, which is a risk if you are a noob or putting in 20+ hours a week. Not so much if you are a weekend warrior or ebiker.I "rode" in another day. Headlight on, in the dark, very cold first 5 minutes. Definitely did not get my clothing right for 27 mph + high 30s Freedoms.
Kind of a visual mess with the threading but if you pore through it good stuff is in there. Inigo is a coach for Team UAE, as in the two time TdF winner. Alan is a coach up in Boulder for mainly Ironman athletes these days.
Both argue that zone 2 != zone 3 in terms of benefits based off of their own data, with the benefit coming from lots of high zone 1/low-mid zone 2 time. Alan likes to dig up all sorts of historical examples of distance athletes who do most of their training hours at 75% HR or below, in keeping with this.
That's what I'm going to do... but for fuck's sake - if you're going to design it around a AA battery form-factor, go the extra .004 inches and make it easily replicable.why are you complaining? Should be easy to solder in a new one.

I know... too much to ask.
Watched a guy put a deer out of its misery this summer with a framing hammer after it got smashed buy a 300 lbs biker (wearing a gang cut). Typical morning in Oregon.
I has a bit of the sads this morning. Deer got hit in front of the house last night and it was clearly badly injured. Called the police but they told me there was nothing they could do. It stumbled away after 10 or so minutes, but probably just so that it could die in the woods. Unfortunately, we live on a major road too, so its not like I could covertly do it myself either. Poor deer.
But then people will buy a new battery instead of a new shaver.
You may have come across the concept of "maximized profits"?
I am going from a 600maH to 1000maH battery. Because FUCK Remington.Ahh, modify it, and solder in a D cell.
should fit no problem!
what else did you expect?So I took an old Remington trimmer apart because it was taking 2 days to charge the damn thing long enough to use it for 5 minutes... and those motherfuckers simply *soldered* a rechargeable AA battery in there.

careful cleaning the boys down there, that's gonna be one angry machineI am going from a 600maH to 1000maH battery. Because FUCK Remington.
This assumes that zone 3 has the same benefits as zone 2 just with more grind/fatigue. They say it doesn't.Good advice if you are at risk for overtraining, which is a risk if you are a noob or putting in 20+ hours a week. Not so much if you are a weekend warrior or ebiker.
Not much, if I'm honest.what else did you expect?
Naw, man - this is just for face, nose and ear hair... which, as time marches on, becomes more and more of an issue.careful cleaning the boys down there, that's gonna be one angry machine
pikachuface.jpg that 4/5 dentists agree that zone 3 does not equal zone 2. I appreciate the thread and the info, but I thought you were saying to avoid zone 3 altogether, not to avoid it for base building. I am trying to push aerobic threshold right now, which makes a lot of sense to spend some time in z3 and z4. It's kicking my ass and I'm having fun. Still butthurt about not being able to complete the z4/5 death march.

But what about the frost? These things are important for my tracker.Snow visible on both the Adirondack and Green mountains this morning.
Happy all worked out in the end. Harry deserves some beers, he did all the work. He'll happily drink 'em.Look what just landed at my doorstep.
Thanks to @Flo33 and his awesome bunch of friends for helping getting the transaction and shipping organized (stupid seller didn't want to ship). I owe you one!
See if you can spot what is different @ianjenn @buckoW

What I gathered from them and what I do is indeed to avoid zone 3 altogether. Base in zones 1 and 2. Intervals in zones 4-7. No time grinding in 3.pikachuface.jpg that 4/5 dentists agree that zone 3 does not equal zone 2.

HBD Mrs. Shtles, and I strongly approve of this message!Wife tracked down the source of the mystery TV delivery. Apparently a b-day present for her (kinda early)... her mom said she didn't even show it being shipped yet, so she's expecting us to receive ANOTHER giant TV at some point in the next couple weeks.
If'n this all happens, @Nick, you may be gettin' a new TV!
Don't we have a motherfucking thread for this already?
that reminds me - need to find some expresso KBS on the way home . . .Just opened the first imperial stout - it's officially fall in my house.
You know it my friend! I have been buying up bourbon barrel stouts over the summer as I have come across some so I have a good stash for this winter. They are best after a Saturday fall/winter mtb ride.that reminds me - need to find some expresso KBS on the way home . . .
Already covered! After he quoted me the price of packaging and shipping, I added some beer money to the sum before the bank transfer. And I hope that your other buddy that picked the bike up negotiated his beer money with the seller, at least that was what the three of us agreed on over the phone.Happy all worked out in the end. Harry deserves some beers, he did all the work. He'll happily drink 'em.
Where are you going to ride this beast? I wish I still had my Sunday but ran out of room in NYC so I had to sell it. It would have been fun to take it to Sweden a couple of time a year.Look what just landed at my doorstep.

More of a collectors item, but it will get some use. It is a super rare frame.Where are you going to ride this beast? I wish I still had my Sunday but ran out of room in NYC so I had to sell it. It would have been fun to take it to Sweden a couple of time a year.
who was it that was complaining in the car thread about a bunch of angry old dudes complaining about ol' musky? I mean isn't that what ridemonkey is all about? Complaining about other people, other people's interests, and other people's behavior? Sometimes bikes I suppose....
