T1D with NBS, 2012 Scott Spark 29 Pro, 25.8 lbs of yummy carbon goodness. I picked up my new ride on Friday, went out Sunday for the first ride. Fast light and with 29 inch wheels, I feel like I am cheating:)

With the mild winter here in Pa, I've manged to pedal just about every day.

Life is good _____________.

Picked up a Easy Racer recumbent last week, what a hoot.

Hey folks -- New guy here. I followed a posting on Kent's wall into here, and it seems a good fit for me. :wave:

Nice work Andy! I don't use a garmin for tracking stuff on my bike so I don't ever do the Strava stuff, but lots of my riding buddies do. Kudos for representing central NY in the Rapha 500! I'm a wuss when it comes to cold and definitely will take the monotonous nature and intensity of a trainer session full of intervals over having to get out in the cold and ride. So I definitely tip my hat to you for hanging in there despite what mother nature might throw at ya!

The Base Miles was way out of my league since there are people doing crazy long rides in warm places that I can't compete with. I did complete the Rapha Festive 500 this December though, riding 500km (310mi) in the last week of the year. I'm in central NY though, so I was mostly pushing myself to get out for 20-30 mile rides when I could, between snow and freezing temps.

My coach (Matt Carnal) is currently winning the Strava base mile challenge...900 miles ahead of 2nd place! The challenge ends tomorrow so he has one ride planned this afternoon and then perhaps one more long one of 175-200 miles planned tomorrow. Sometimes I definitely wish I had the flexibility with my job to ride when I wanted like that!

I put my Dexcom in a cell phone mount on the handlebars. I find the accuracy to be pretty good. It's always there if I want to see where I'm at. I love the Cliff Shot Bloks for treating an actual or impending low.

I never stop when testing.
I just go the back of the group so I don't make anybody nervous with my hands off the bars.
Having it on your arm keeps it from getting shocked by pot holes.
