I'm so impressed by the women's field. They all look great on course, although it's unfortunate to see Mille Johnset go down with a broken collarbone after coming up slightly short on the last jump.

Is there a category where we can combine our times? Might need her to offset my slowness. Edit: sadly it conflicts with one of the "run in a circle for 24 hours" NJ Trail Series events so doesn't look like I'm talking her into this.

You're telling me that humble soybean farmer Scott Bessent is out of touch? https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5574543-bessent-soybean-farmers-pain/

You know how registering for summer events in January always feels like a good idea at the time, but then the date rolls around and you're like "why in the hell did I sign up for this?". I think this is going to be one of those.

I'm at >$5 per gallon based on my "limited usage" and spent multiple hours negotiating down to $4.50. It's a long story and I won't derail things here further but these companies all completely suck.

(Sorry to derail, I'm interested in the panel monitoring stuff too but...) Out of curiosity, what are you paying per gallon? I've had all kinds of fun arguments with my supplier about their pricing and what's shown on NYSERDA etc.

Pretty confident that it's legitimate but that's always a good idea. All of the links for payment/dispute are the correct ones for Rutgers. It's possible that the person with the plate is pulling some kind of scam which is why I want to resolve it asap with the DMV.

Another one mostly for the sake of amusement, but still pretty annoying. I received 2 parking citations in the mail from Rutgers yesterday, which I found odd because I have never parked at Rutgers in my 21 years living in the state and can't even recall the last time I was in the vicinity of...

-We're doing a Hawaii trip in April and I'm going to do the climb up Haleakala with an arbitrary goal of 5 hours. Climbing on the road is probably my biggest strength on a bike so I'm looking forward to it, but this is obviously a unique thing so we'll see how it goes. -Continue getting faster...

I'm curious to hear their explanation. It seemed like an obvious call.

Someone either acquiring or ridding themselves of a nightmare project.

Think they'll get issued at the same time as the $5k DOGE checks? Just want to be prepared for the tax implications.

Some positive words about them here: I'm definitely not in the market for $2k custom shoes, but some of the ideas seem interesting.
