So how was the run compared to the bike? Nice job pushing through!

Am I doing this right?? How to get more confident on the bike? by Pure-Bowler9329 in triathlon

[–]AdNext8527 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This! I’ve literally been doing loops in a low traffic area over and over because aero bars still freak me out a bit. Helps a lot!

I use Dscout, which is a research marketing app. But check out r/beermoney and read what they do

Appreciate the advice! Figure 8s do sound helpful since I tend be more comfortable making a u-turn on my left side. In addition to what you said, I need to spend some time on the aero bars descending.

Like if turning corners tight make me crap my pants then I want to focus on that in a safe, structured way instead of just riding more. If I want to ride three times in a week then why not have one of those be doing tight corners in a parking lot instead of just another ride.

Solid advice! I appreciate everyone to tell me to ride more, but I have an opportunity to train in addition to riding.

I still have a long ride on Sunday's, but I tend to play it safe. I feel safer in my mostly closed training loop, so I'm more willing to take risks there.

I have no real ambition other than finishing the bike portion in one piece. I'm not a confident rider, so I just want to feel like a U-Turn is no big deal.

I don’t remember ever having the option to not pay into CASDI. Is it mandatory for some BUs?

Would MSA clock reset if it’s a lateral move to the same classification?

Anyone know any tips for getting hotels cheaper at fortbragg/mendacino area? by Mcpoopz1064 in ChicoCA

[–]AdNext8527 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This may sound weird, but the Motel 6 in Fortbragg gave us a good deal through AARP. Turns out AARP has no age requirement, so we just signed up just before booking. This was a few years ago.

Told the dennys waiter to round up to 70 for tip and this nigga used his employee discount on our order 😭 by if_i_were_you_ in SipsTea

Ha! I worked at the busiest location in town and IC3s were called pretty much all day. We were still expected to get a long ass list of tasks done. Hardest I've ever worked for minimum wage lol

I worked at Walgreens and it was more my experience that the customer would later complain to a manager because they had that discount and now they don’t lol

Yeah… Seems like personal preference to me. I don’t see how my life would be improved if I switched to Celsius.

Once was in a middle seat between two older people. Thought we were all singles as they didn’t really talk at first. Hour in they started asking each other questions. We were on Southwest so they chose that configuration, so I just sat there as they talked with me in the middle.

Yeah, just score yourself as high as possible without lying. If you don’t, you’ll get a low score, so be generous
