First commute of the year! Finally the rain stopped and the temps got over 50°F (which is my bare minimum for the afternoon). My commute home is expected to be 40°F so let's hope I'm wrong. 12.6 miles with 627 ft of elevation.

Deleted my Twitter/ X account after Florida man got elected the second time and came here. Finally proof of what I (and half the planet) always suspected.
Twitter now displays where accounts are from and it has confirmed that too many of the political accounts are out of country bots.

Why are folks still there? To argue with bots? A waste of precious time while enriching the richest man on Earth.

Delete your account.

I see what you did there! Lol.
First off, my suspension has ended. Got a little harsh with a post a few days ago but I didn’t have my feet on the ground and I’m sorry if I offended anyone. Will try to be more chipper. Knock on wood!

Once you understand that Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel is just a character played by Nick Kroll, it all makes sense.

...and this is why I will always have a generator AND a #GAS STOVE. #CenHud trying to ruin my viewing of the Buffalo game. #GoBills

@resortsworld.bsky.social the food court cooks are up to 25 minutes to cook a damn burger.

We are at 20 minutes for a fucking burger at #ResortsWorlds #Monticello.
Went from 6 people to 2 on the grill. #WTF

58 degrees outside, nice for Nov 5th in the #HudsonValley. Good day to take down #Halloween decorations so naturally I get stung by a wasp. Good grief.

So today's recovery ride with Jacob was interesting. This is what happens when your #wahoo element takes the day off by show N/A for speed and you let your #Fitbit charge track your #cycling. What a hot piece of garbage Fitbit is for this.

A letter from war torn Portland Oregon, truly heartbreaking. Please pass along so others across the world can see how bad it is🤭

#Zwift - Group Ride: Stage 1 - Zwift Unlocked - Short on #DùnDash in #Scotland. Ok so I switched bikes today cause it was a short ride and didn't want to get dropped, again. Tomorrow I'll switch back.

Convicted sexual assaulter (1 count),

Is in the Epstein files.

Don’t be distracted.

#Zwift - Group Ride: Stage 1 - Zwift Unlocked - Long on #TropicRush in #MakuriIslands. Trying to do this route on the #gravel bike is not easy! So hard to stay in the group on the tarmac.

Guilty!

I decided to hit one the "Climb of the Week" #COTW for an extra 250 XP after work. Silly me doing this course on the Zwift Gravel bike!!! Screenshot shows me 8th on the leaderboard. I don't think it's correct by a longshot!
