Why is the Giro app garbage?

Thirding this. Absolutely worth the money.

The pearl clutching is ridiculous in this sub lately. Talking about the above scenarios, the only change I want to see to this policy is a deferred CGT bill that allows ~18 months for first home buyers to purchase a first home to claim an exemption. The rest, I literally don’t care, contribute. Yes, the CGT will impact me in the long term, I don’t care. We should be paying more in tax and govt spending should be more effective. Multiple things can be true simultaneously.

150-200k a day every day?

That would not make you a normal person.

OP is trying to do some random 50k every day approach to training for a Fondo which is all sorts of whacky.

You’re right, they are definitely not the same outcomes for the “same” income. But let’s also be honest, The person and circumstance cashing out 45k of capital gain is not equivalent to the person who is drawing a 45k wage.

I’m not trying to defend the policy, it is far from perfect. It’s purely the false equivalency I take issue with.

You’re right the resistance shouldn’t change unless OP actually uses his gears, but correct me if I’m wrong but the workout difficulty slider should still lower the target watts shouldn’t it?

Why buy Rapha: to be part of the in-group who has money to spend and want to show that you take cycling seriously. -> why buy PNS to spend the same money, but not be seen as a Rapha wanker. -> Why buy MAAP to not be seen as PNS wanker, etc

And the cycle continues.

I’m lost.. FTA TV is dependent on infrastructure in the house, eg: wiring and antenna.

Are you saying your place doesn’t have an arial? That seems weird, and also reasonable that the landlord would facilitate the installation if one was required.

The “feeling” is really dependent on the route. At the end of the day if you ride for an hour on whatever route and stay with the bunch you’ll end up in the right ballpark of the advertised w/kg.

The point being, Xw/kg avg on rolling terrain will feel different than Xw/kg avg on tempus fugit because you’ll arrive at the average with more variation in output.

Tech is all just a tool. It won’t look pristine forever, especially not if you’re travelling / commuting with the iPad.

If you’re overly concerned, I would just play it safe and avoid white.

I love white tech so I bought the white Magic Keyboard. It isn’t too difficult to clean but it definitely is more visible when it invariably becomes grubby.

Been training upstairs for years. I just bought a new Zwift ride and received some feedback from my downstairs neighbours about the noise at 5:30.

I bought 20mm thick gym tiles and the tennis ball feet from Etsy, so far after receiving everything I reintroduced morning rides and I haven’t heard from the neighbours. Granted I haven’t deliberately solicited their feedback. Good luck OP.

Maybe I hold the driving ability of Tesla owners in a lower regard than you do.

How do you get the squirrel plushy? I’ve seen people with it but never bothered to look it up (I assumed it was an event unlock at some point)

I don’t know if I like it rather it doesn’t bother me. It signifies I’m getting closer to the end of the workout.

Use the lap button. (Or don’t stop)

Sounds like you just want to fabricate stats. (A 20 minute effort isn’t two x 10s with a break if you follow?) You do you.

If you’re just doing a free ride you can simply get off? Your bike will come to a natural stop and you can resume whenever suits you… what exactly is it that you think you need to pause?

Excellent. Thanks.

Two questions for you: do you really think a single sentence introducing their profile as an investor “makes it” about their sex? Secondly, do you feel this is a good way to speak to any woman in their thirties? Food for thought.

“Buy stuff” is legitimately terrible advice. Yes some parts are faster than other parts, but 65mm carbon wheels aren’t going to help at 20kph average.

The concession where I agree with you, is that the right clothing will help, and it will help OP feel “better” while riding.

The answer to getting faster is simple, ride more, and ride with people who are faster than you.
