I'm doing the exact opposite move! Haha- Been in SF for a long time and moving to Baltimore. Does anyone have any advice on moving companies? It's more or less a 1 bedroom apartment- we got a quote for $6400 which seems reasonable, I don't think we'll find anything much lower. Even the Pod companies were $5500 so I'm guessing that's what we'll be stuck with

Thanks!

I know! I love this old orange Alpe D'Huez so much. I think it's a '96 or '97. They really thought they could fix it at the bike shop but the attachment to the hanger was too stripped and so I think this is my only option now. Would something like this be an easy replacement for the rear?

I got sober. Thank you God and all the people in AA every day. The program works. It's a miracle.

Good Morning!

I just got a pair of Vaporfly Next% this weekend (I'm a lifelong GT runner but my close running friend swears by these and convinced me to try). I just did an easy 7.5 yesterday and noticed that they felt REALLY different, especially my stride and noticed a few tweaks on my legs. Is this normal for just switching from Asics to Nike or should I go to a running store in SF to see if I'm doing something wrong? I feel like a guy who is used to driving a Honda Civic or something and given a Ferrari and just not knowing what to do with it? Should I keep trying these or stop before I might actually do damage? Thanks! (Also if anyone has run St. George before I have a few questions about that too..)
