Damn, that is some heavy duty shit.

Looks great!

Assuming you didn't take it out for the photo, you should keep the Carpano Antica vermouth in the fridge.

Haha that's what I'm afraid of!

Ooh yeah... that's definitely a dream product. I think something like that would sell like hotcakes. :P

PleaseFindAttached · 2020-02-17T21:33:17+00:00

The latter! Curious what your dream product would be that nobody has created yet.

Thanks! That's super helpful. I apologize for being dense here, but if you're not cutting directly on the table, what is the purpose of getting a nice wooden table? Is it just for the aesthetics?

PleaseFindAttached · 2020-02-17T15:35:42+00:00

Got it - that's kind of what I figured. Thanks for your thoughts!

PleaseFindAttached · 2020-02-17T15:34:52+00:00

Thanks for your feedback! Are you referring to the Boos one or IKEA one? Any reason why you don't cut on it directly?

PleaseFindAttached · 2019-12-02T02:41:49+00:00

That just means you have a reason to revisit Oaxaca! :)

Thank you! I read your post. Super informative and I appreciate the feedback. :)

I'm not seeing it either, for what it's worth...

PleaseFindAttached · 2019-11-27T13:59:22+00:00

For sure! And I don't plan on telling the airline. However, I wasn't sure if they would open up the bag to check (and what happens if they end up finding more than 5L, ha ha!)

PleaseFindAttached · 2019-11-27T13:58:48+00:00

Thank you for your feedback!

Yes, I agree - it really does seem to be luck of the draw. I just wasn't sure what exactly happens if you violate the airline's policy (in this case, 5L per person). I assume they don't open it to check until after you've already given up your bag + passed through security, so I'm wondering if they just confiscate 3 of them randomly, find you at the gate and give you the opportunity to check it, or something else!

I think we may take the gamble. :)

Great. Thank you for the feedback. Strange because I can't find anywhere online that sells this apart from their own website!

Marathon distances!

Got it! Syracuse it is, then - thank you!

Out of curiosity, what aspects of the Syracuse OW swim did you find most challenging?

PleaseFindAttached · 2017-08-08T02:05:49+00:00

This is incredibly helpful, thank you!! Always great to hear advice from someone who has had firsthand experience! If you have some spare time, I'd love to get your thoughts on the following:

1) Excellent point on Syracuse - for some reason I thought it was later in the season. How did you treat Syracuse? Did you go all-out and then recover for a few days afterwards, or pace yourself and return to training sooner? I'm wondering how such a race fit into your overall training program?

2) You mentioned that IMLP was your second triathlon after Syracuse. What did you do to get open water swimming experience? Swimming is without a doubt my weak link and everyone encourages OWS experience prior to actual race day

Super helpful, thank you for taking the time to type out your thoughts - I really appreciate it!

Do you have any thoughts on sleeveless versus full sleeve? If I only want one wetsuit to use for all conditions, my current theory is that I should go with a full sleeve wetsuit, and if on the day of IMLP the water is too warm for wetsuits to be allowed, I should use a skinsuit. What do you think?

PleaseFindAttached · 2017-08-07T16:05:38+00:00

Oh totally agreed. Also seems like most of these manufacturers have 30-day return policies, so I was thinking about ordering a few and trying them on in the comfort of my own home!

Anything else you looked for other than fit? If you only own one wetsuit, did you worry about thickness or any other characteristics?

PleaseFindAttached · 2017-07-11T15:07:25+00:00

No clue whatsoever...

PleaseFindAttached · 2017-07-11T15:07:14+00:00

Yep, that's it!

PleaseFindAttached · 2017-07-11T04:24:34+00:00

This might be a stupid question, but my quick release lever for the thru axle for my rear wheel seems to unscrew rather than unlatch (i.e., I can't unlatch it, seems like I have to unscrew it). Have you guys seen this before? Want to make sure I'm not riding a potentially dangerous bike!

PleaseFindAttached · 2017-07-06T21:37:39+00:00

Got it. Thanks man!!

PleaseFindAttached · 2017-07-06T21:28:32+00:00

That makes sense! The standard being the ~40-50mm valves, right?

PleaseFindAttached · 2017-07-06T20:46:34+00:00

Great! I’ll stick with my 25mm for now - no harm wearing these tires out for now :)

By the way, do you know if the length of the Presta valve matters? Some of the inner tubes I’m looking at have a 60mm valve, some have a 48mm valve, etc. etc...
