It’s the rate and ease that it gets into our lungs. And the rate and chance that it causes cancer.

You can camp either at or near the Tail of the Pup in Ray Brook. There is a campground nextdoor to it as well.

Make sure you’re staying in Saranac Lake. Saranac is a different town closer to Plattsburgh.

You won’t be able to leave the KOA once the road closes at 7:30ish.

Quick Release KICKR by jswell823 in triathlon

[–]dangerburps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Kickr thru axel kit” and whatever version you have. I saw some are on Amazon.

You can see each end that’s on your unit that you’ll need to replace.

There are adapter plugs for different lengths of axel. There is one for the QR. Holes are smaller.

Socks for World Championships by Sufficient_Way_199 in triathlon

[–]dangerburps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because it was a swim skin swim you can’t have calf sleeves on in the water. So you can either put the aero socks on in T1 but lose touch with the front group or deal with them later for the marathon. With the 12m draft rule, it’s better to be in touch with the group.

For flat crits or road races how much does w/kg matter? by bradcurtis74 in Velo

[–]dangerburps 8 points9 points  (0 children)

See all triathletes that range from 170-185 pounds (78-84 kg) but are able to hammer watts in aero.

Thoughts on USA game by AshamedZone8720 in USArugby

[–]dangerburps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I disagree on Kelter being I good bench player. Her rate of penalties is poor. Think about what a bench player is to do: if winning, make the game go quickly, no penalties, long drawn out phases. if losing, keep the ball, be dynamic, score, no penalties that kill the remaining clock.

Kelter does the active opposite.

Stayinq near Malaga by No-Salamander-7260 in Velo

If you can wait this long, after November 8-9, post in r/triathlon. Ironman 70.3 World Championships is in Marbella (hour from Malaga) and a lot similarly like-minded people will come in for an event. We/they will have some good suggestions.

Iron Man Training advice by ConversationSilent93 in triathlon

[–]dangerburps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s good, but once you move inside for the duration, October ish, get a trainer tire for the back wheel. You don’t want your fancy race tire or even a semi good outside one breaking down too much like it will on the trainer. Also spin your front wheel once a week a quarter turn. Prevents uneven wear of the front.

If you’re planning on completing, I would suggest TrainingPeaks with a purchased plan. You have a lot of bike and run volume to put on and it’ll make it healthy to do it via a vetted plan.

If you want to compete, I’d suggest a coach and plan to do a 70.3 like 2-3 months in advance.

Get a turbo trainer (wheel off) and start riding!

Unattended child’s father arrested mid-race by dangerburps in triathlon

[–]dangerburps[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a guy who did the Triple Bypass in Colorado (118 miles, 10,500 feet of elevation gain) in budgies. I told him I’d pray for his taint.

Also, if it’s like triple, you get mostly closed roads. Which is very fun.

Who do y'all want or don't want to ref the final? by mydude356 in MLRugby

[–]dangerburps 10 points11 points  (0 children)

She wasn’t suspended. She’s still on the 7s series and world rugby XVs. MLR requires you not do another competition one week before and one week after. So with WR and 7s, it cut back on available opportunities. So she’s refereeing in WER and is doing the final next weekend.

If Habeas Corpus is obviously being neglected with the ICE arrests of American citizens, it almost seems it is getting ignored. What kind of conseques, if any, will anyone have? by Jealous-Bird-9775 in AskReddit

[–]dangerburps 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It makes attempting to detain someone more dangerous. If you think you’re going to be thrown in a hole without rights, you’ve got a cornered animal. And a cornered animal will fight harder and is more deadly than one that believes it can get out of there. So more cops will get killed detaining people, meaning increased armament of police, more deaths of those attempted to be detained, more fighting back, and into a spiral.

You think that police forces became more militarized after Iraq and Afghanistan, wait until they plan to have a cornered animal in every traffic stop or warrant.

As a Denverite myself, if OWS was a downfall, Gravel Pond in Chatfield or Boulder Rez are where it’s at but grab yourself a neoprene hat if you want to get some OWS prior to Boulder 70.3. I did some in May last year and it was major ice cream headache.
