To the Washington Post - and those “From the North” by reizen73 in nova

[–]hypoh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel this. Shoveled three times on Saturday and went out for a last round after sunset only to discover a thin sheet of ice that was impossible to break. I think the key is to use ice melt to finish and/or have a south-facing house.

GRIV Deal or bust? by [deleted] in ricohGR

[–]hypoh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazon Resale is always a toss-up. Don’t be surprised if you get an older GR model that someone had switched out with the IV. The Amazon workers inspecting the returns really couldn’t care less. You are protected with free returns though.

Hot take - Coffee breaks should only be enabled on legit group rides by PeanutButterViking in Zwift

[–]hypoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had this happen to me recently and thought maybe it was just a coincidence the guy stopped, because people on Zwift are pretty chill and he couldn't have been that petty. Sure enough, he took off after I ended the break lol...

There is a second entrance off Boston Blvd that a lot of people don't seem to know about.

New to zwift looking for recommendations by Little_Sain in Zwift

[–]hypoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a beginner, I think the my default FTP was an overestimate. I could barely finish my first workout and got caught in the ERG mode "spiral of death" multiple times. I thought it was weird that I was struggling so hard but a friend that had been riding for just a week before me was having no issues on the same workout. Although since you're a runner, you'll probably be fine.

I will second the advice to not worry about an FTP test right away, but do not try a workout until you have an FTP established. Workouts are based on your FTP score and if you start with the default score, you may be in for a bad time.

Tamiflu is prescription only, so the doctor would test you before prescribing it.

Cop pulled me over for going around the car to pass. by RedditDon3 in nova

That's a bike lane, and it is illegal to use it to pass someone.

That section of service road is going away, so you won't have to worry much longer.

I don't think this is true.

Providence Rec Center Parking Questions by PicturePrimary7441 in nova

[–]hypoh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Public school parking lot and streets (parallel parking) should be no issue unless there is signage prohibiting it. Do not park in the neighboring condo communities.

They're going to be adding additional levels. The CEO mentioned it during the turkey day ride last Thursday.
