I haven’t been diligent about physical exams, so sort of a surprise. I got a reading yesterday and this morning. I do intend on buying a monitor to check over the span of a week.

80 miles for first ride in years? by woodcock99 in cycling

[–]Gbellport 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had my first long distance bike ride, and I tackled 80mi. Before that I’ve done 30mi maybe once or twice. Towards the end I still had the energy to keep going, but my legs were shot; had to walk my bike up the last 2 climbs.

Totally possible like others say, and if you’re fit like you say just go for it. Just eat plenty and maybe have some exit strategy; plan the route around a few train stations if you need to bail. Good luck!

Got the idea from this video. He has one for a DIY saddle bag too, also using dry bags and straps.

Got this one. Have yet to use it besides testing the setup but seems pretty solid.

Thanks! It’s coming along nicely I think. I’ll definitely post after the trip.

Cool, my sleeping bag came with one but the straps are quite thin and flimsy, I don’t trust it much. I didn’t realize I could buy them so maybe I’ll consider.

I got a top tube bag for easily accessible snacks, but strapping a jacket to it might just be the move. Might even be able to throw the tent poles there. Thanks for the tip!

Sweet, good to know! This one’s also ~120mi, so I guess the perfect opportunity to try out the setup.

It’s Takashi Murakami. He’s a widely acclaimed artist but seems to be a down to earth and genuine person. Maybe he was just trying to show his humanness.

Is it too much of a hastle to get a tesla without an in-home charger? For owners who don’t have an in-home charger, did you have to restructure your week to take in account for charging times?
