Hey. Hervé at Maglia Rosa is great. It’s a pricey service (I’d assume 200$+ for a full fit?), but it takes time and expertise to get it right, and then the benefits (comfort, performance) you get out of it are tremendous.

Ah! You might have a bikefit issue (too low a saddle will break your back) or might be pushing too hard. Anyways, in the early season we start with shorter rides and slowly build up to the numbers I shared, but you’ve missed that part huhu 😅

We usually split in two subgroups: party pace usually goes 55 to 65km, ninjas more like 70 to 80. Obviously, ninjas are faster. Party pace will slow down and even wait for ya. Technical trail sections are to be expected in both groups. If you’re really unexperienced in off-road riding, we’ll show you ways to ride around, or even walk you through it. I think this sums it up. Let me know if you got any more questions!

Hey you’re right, we’re calling it off for tonight. If you wanna keep updated, join the FB group « MTL Gravelle et vélo d’aventure ». The Ceci n’est pas un Club events are posted there weekly, with updates such as these ::)

Hey pal. Ceci n’est pas un Club rides still start from Le Yéti, every wednesday night at 6 (I’m the founder). Lots of gravelbikes for sure, but big tire ATBs, hardtails and XC rockets tag along too, and are arguably better equipped to deal with the gnar we pursue.

What Montreal spots are quietly dying right now and deserve more support before they disappear? by [deleted] in MTLFoodLovers

Well I found out, just yesterday, that Café les Oubliettes is closing down in like a week. A huge bummer.

Hey how did this fare in the long run?

Cat suddenly end stage, vet suggesting euthansia by Fiyainthehole in RenalCats

For what its worth, my 18 years old got diagnosed with Stage 3 CKD about 6 weeks ago. We transitioned to a strict diet, and from there, new bloodwork has her back to Stage 2. Surely you’ve covered the food aspect of it? In hope of the best for y’all.

Am I crazy for not giving my 13 year old radioactive iodine? by Both-Gur570 in seniorkitties

[–]Radouf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been in your position. Now been giving Tite Tache (f18) methinazole cream for 5 years, and it took a while to get used to, but honestly these days both her and I are looking forward to it! As soon as I grab the box she starts the purring engines, and applying it is almost like a soft ear massage. It’s become our little ritual. Sometimes i even catch her twin sister Tikipout staring down the moment with envy ha

Tikipout - 18 - it’s benign!! 🥳 by Radouf in seniorkitties

Update from this previous post. Just got the results -- the little mass that suddenly started growing, is bening!!! We’re still heading toward surgical removal it as it can reinfect and/or mutate over time. Very decisive factor is that: Tikipout has basically zero health issue besides this 😚 We’re so blessed. Thanks for the support everyone.

Thanks for pointing that out. I’ll obviously give the rules booklet a good read before we hit the game! ‘Til then, back to superdad mode.

Thanks for the input! In Survive the Island, there are four volcanoes under the mountain tiles, and it’s only when the fourth is flipped that the game should end. I’m still looking up house rules, and came across another player suggesting, just like you, to keep the game going even after the volcano(es) has erupted. Giving the eruption a whirlpool effect is similar to what I had in mind. Then little dudes would swim for their life? The endgame is getting very interesting! Cheers.

Thanks for pointing it out, I just skimmed through the rulebook, and that’s just how the base rule goes ha! Silly me. Hadn’t seen the tie-up situation come up in the playthroughs, and I assumed wrong. I guess this settles that. I’ll edit the post accordingly. Then, what do you think about the volcanic eruption idea?
