nice ride up jerome jay – youre right that strava thing is a devilishly tempting way to destroy time and ego. chirs hong – 110 lbs – and i have had some battles along that route and i feel i know every foot of elevation, every wind, every temperature, every car pattern in those two turns. i always start on the bridge (not from ivy hill) and stop at last mailbox on right before padonia (dont know how you made that turn onto padonia at speed – i’m so cooked i can barely stop with the 30 feet from that mailbox). on our version anything under 6 mins is awesome and usually requires a friendly wind. in winter conditions and temps, that ride by you is dangerously quick. driscoll, beck, and several other of us do some group rides on the wknds…sincerely, rick norton

Comment on Perfection by chris

A pitcher’s “perfect game” is considered a complete 9 inning start with no base runners – not just a complete game shutout with no hits (which is referred as a “no-no”). If there is a walk or an fielding error, the “perfect game” is lost. Or if Jim Joyce blows a call in the bottom of the 9th with 2 outs.

I agree, but there’s definitely a distinction between the devoted among the cyclists being discussed–those that have been engaged in the sport in some capacity consistently for a number of years–and those jumping on the bandwagon, buying the sweet bike and all the gear, riding for a few months, and then forgetting about the stuff as it collects dust in the garage.

I agree that the sort of people you describe can be comical, but these are also the people that are enthusiastic about cycling and allow it to exist as a professional sport, so don’t be too unwilling to indulge them every once in a while.

Dude, I used to eat this all the time! I go without the raisins, and use a bit of cinnamon–”The Flavor Bible” contends that it enhances the flavor of the blueberries. Try it!
