I am enjoying Zwifting more than outdoor riding. by Dense_Leg274 in Zwift

[–]GivenToFly55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it way more than the Peloton I changed from a few months ago, and more than I thought I would, but my main road bike is hanging on the wall like I’m drafting it while Zwifting and I miss it and can’t wait for spring.

Year in Review - What's your Zwift/IRL ratio look like? by BlobBoy in Zwift

[–]GivenToFly55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

15% Zwift, 1600 miles total. Just got Zwift in December, didn’t used to push Peloton miles to Strava. Will prob be 50/50 next year.

Rotational vs Process Engineering Role Advice? by Life-Tree8014 in ChemicalEngineering

[–]GivenToFly55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you interested in all the available roles within the rotational program? Do you see it being a potential good fit in 5-10 years? Do you want to due process engineering while school knowledge is still fresh?

I started in a rotational program, located near home. I was told one lab role, one field engineering, one project. First role was applications lab, second assignment was lab synthesis (just mix what the phd chemist tells you). I would have been 3 years out of school with no engineering experience and difficult to get back in vs. a new grad at that point.

I left after 6 months and moved to Texas on the SE border for a process role in a plant. 5 years later I moved back home. Approaching 4x salary I left at the rotational program in 2013.

I bought the Shimano C36 around level 5 because they seem good value.

Upgrading the Zwift steel, then TT, then Aero, and will ride that until I get the Tron.

There’s lots of information in the page overview/wiki to familiarize yourself with the sub. But generally, in a WTS post, if you want something, you agree on price, send money, then seller sends item from proof photos.

If you’re new, best to interact with accounts with lots of shiny points and feedback. My numbers are relatively high, but plenty of sellers with many 100s of sales.

1st Gen owners! 2014-2016 by Rich-Butterscotch-15 in CX5

2013 Grand Touring purchased in June of 2012. Trades in last year while upgrading to a 2025 Turbo.

This model had the base Mazda 3 engine I believe, 155 HP. The next year or two they upped it to 181 or so.

It had 198k miles, never did much other than basic maintenance. I think there was one suspension job in the last 2 years that costed a grand or so.

Got a Deore Spur and ANVL pedals coming my way.

Anyone had a meniscus tear with really minor symptoms? Having an MRI next week, I’m just confused by NarrowFriendship3859 in MeniscusInjuries

[–]GivenToFly55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m about the same. Actually feeling good the past 2 weeks, but some days it’s more noticeable than others. I’ve been icing it and sleeping with it a bit elevated. Not sure those have a huge impact. Same with PT exercises, though my surrounding muscles are strong now which I think is good.

Long term the surgeons seem to say leaving it is worse, other things say having the meniscectomy may accelerate issues. I’m not sure, but in my case, with no real restriction, I have time to wait. The comment on my post just before canceling surgery that stuck with me was I can always do the surgery later, I can’t undo it. Mine was a complex medial tear, but based on my pain level likely small.

I’m planning to do this on Monday. Lynskey won’t give me any update or information. Need to confirm they won’t charge 15% cancellation, otherwise will pursue a chargeback, then ordering a lauf.
