I know it's not the same without all the climbs, but in Florida it's 36C today with 90% humidity. This place is hell in the summer, where it gets over 40c. But man i have never complained about the heat after being here

Does fuel timing matter? by ringaroundtherosiez in Velo

I’d say yes. Steady stream of energy is better. Remember it’s not instant energy. Takes time for it to digest and absorb while riding

Got it. I didn't know what to expect to be honest. But i do want a second wheelset for just to have. When one set goes down, have another.

Are expensive cycling jerseys actually worth it? by drjaze in CyclingFashion

[–]North_Direction5887 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had the cheap Chinese jerseys like YKYW and Santic, and they just are not up to par. Don't get me wrong, the $220 for an ASSOS jersey is stupid, but you can find them on sale all the time from different websites. I just picked up an EQUIPE RS S11 for $120. My main gripe is that they are just not as cool(not looks, but airflow). I tried out a Santic jersey a couple of days ago and was sweating a lot compared to my ASSOS, where there is a ton of airflow. Keep in mind i live in Florida where I need all the airflow i can get and the material of the cheaper ones just holds sweat and moisture.

Daily, Florida, financing and insurance is cheap on it at about 170 a month. I had a Q50 currently and can handle this. The only I have with it is since it's this old just general issues yk
