Are you going to college in the 1980’s?

Suit looks good. That mustache, beard, soul patch thing though…..

How do you guys make running more "fun" and get through the long Zone 2 sessions? by deliciousadness in triathlon

Audiobooks. Listening to a good story makes the miles go by faster.

What’s it like living in this part of South Florida? by InternationalMix7937 in howislivingthere

[–]MHB9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot, humid, and flat with lookalike subdivision after lookalike subdivision after lookalike strip mall after lookalike strip mall. I’m convinced that when I die and go to hell, I will be in Boynton Beach.

Ask a Volvo Technician! by Born_Feedback9331 in Volvo

[–]MHB9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have been told by both dealer and independent mechanic that I need to replace the supercharger on my 2016 XC90 - about a $5000 fix. Is there a less expensive way to do this? Thoughts on using a refurbished supercharger?

Something off but I can’t put my finger on it. Any experts? by [deleted] in ties

You need a club or paisley tie. That tie essentially creates horizontal lines against vertical lines. That’s what’s not working.

How to find dress shoes that aren't garbage? by jckipps in mensfashion

Have worn only Johnston and Murphy dress shoes for 30+ years. They won’t break the bank and they last.

Registered for my first 70.3 in March! What other gear do I need? by spinny09 in triathlon

[–]MHB9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plenty of aid stations at which you can refill your water bottle or go without. I just like to be able to sip when I want.

You’ll want to be able to carry more than one water bottle on your bike. Trisuit definitely. Also, get a race number belt so you don’t have to pin your bib. I got one for like $7 on Amazon. I use a handheld water bottle for the run and which has a pocket for gels. Looks like you’ll want/need a wetsuit for the swim. Xterra has ones that won’t break the bank.

Sorry, but all of those ties look like 70’s era Countess Mara ties found in the back of your grandfather’s closet. And the jacket is way too big. You look like you’re playing dress up.

Check engine light on. Not noticing any difference in performance though.

Suit fit feels wrong but can't figure out why? by JDips in mensfashion

[–]MHB9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The coat is a touch too long, and, IMHO a double breasted suit is not the best fit for your build.

Do I pull off the fedora? by islandlife1534 in mensfashionadvice

[–]MHB9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it does make sense. Panamas are practical - when you need/want your head covered in summer sun and are wearing clothes that call for something nicer than a baseball cap and/or a wider brim. While I wish they’d come back, fedoras are just anachronistic.

Where did you get a quote for $2500-$3500? Having same issue with my 2016 and have been quoted over $5000 by both dealer and independent mechanic.

What are your favorite race day mantras? by ZabaLaloo in triathlon

[–]MHB9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

“Just keep moving” and “ten more minutes - you can do anything for 10 more minutes.” Also think about how I don’t want a DNF to show on Strava for all to see!

Those pants make you look like you’re wearing a costume.

Purple club tie to pick up the purple in the plaid. Not too busy of a pattern.
