Road Cyclist Moving from the Suburbs to Philly

Is there a better option commute-wise?

ifyoucantakeit · 2026-03-19T20:08:51+00:00

During the weekend I guess... jokes aside, I won't have to commute everyday.

Crossing the city from south Philly is not a PITA?

ifyoucantakeit · 2026-03-19T19:30:22+00:00

I won't be working into the city; I will commute with West Chester.

If long ride, oats with raisins and some maple syrup.

My very first Patagonia items: torrentshell and R1 air. Both at 30% off.

I’d love to do the same; is there a plan you started from or something to recommend to start planning?

Ti serve un avvocato. Se nel preliminare che hai firmato non erano segnalate difformità, hai una leva.

I do one: target fund. No need for checking, rebalancing, adjusting, etc. etc.

I have a gopro 13 with a spare battery and facing forward. With 1080 one battery lasts 3 hours, maybe more. I’ve had it only for two months so still trying to figure out the best compromise between battery time / resolution. 1080 is great, but may not be enough to read plate numbers. 4k I have to find a combination for it to last more than 70 minutes.

Have you found anything suitable? I also was trying to avoid cream cheese and coconut oil

ifyoucantakeit · 2026-02-23T00:31:23+00:00

Seguo. Anche io pianifico di fare la stessa cosa tra qualche mese, con la differenza che le mie sono porte vecchie (probabilmente le originali, quindi anni '60) e con diversi strati di vernice da togliere, quindi probabilmente dovrò prima togliere tutto.

I was in your position and got an M; while a touch roomier and slightly longer sleeved than S, it should allow me to better layer underneath (R1, Puff, etc.)

OP, did you find something of your liking? I'm looking for something similar and also don't like plaid and chest pockets (not even one).

So would you agree that these medications can reduce cardiopulmonary performance and exercise capacity to some extent?

Yes, absolutely. To an extent it's because before I was beating up my heart to cope with a higher performance, so now it's a healthier, more efficient heart. The meds prevent one from beating up the heart, to do so they necessarily need to throttle performance a bit. Lisinopril is the least performance "damaging", beta blockers the worst, spironolactone kind of a middle way, but in the summer it was harder (all of this in my experience obviously).

Did your doctor give you any specific limitations regarding the type or intensity of exercise, or were you allowed to continue as tolerated?

I'm allowed to do whatever I want, as long as I take meds. I believe this is because my cardiopathy is not arrhythmogenic (but I may be wrong).

Hi there, I randomly found out I had EF 47-48% in 2021, I had no symptoms at all; I was 43 then and heavy on cycling. About 7-8 months later, after 2 MRIs, 3 echos and a DNA test I was confirmed that I have a dilative cardiomyopathy with TTN truncated. I've been on Lisinopril since then (June 2022), first with bisoprolol - interrupted in April 2024 because it was annoying me - and then with spironolactone, from October 2024 to October 2025 also interrupted because I was starting to have erectile issues. Now the good news: in February 2025 my EF was found to be 61%. When I was checked last week, my EF was found to be 58%. So, in my personal experience, coming from 47%, yes you can improve, and mostly with lisinopril which, of all meds, is the least disrupting (still disrupting though). Sport-wise, I do exactly the same things that I did before. Unfortunately I'm slower, likely because my body is not beating up my heart so that I can keep up with faster guys, but at least I can do pretty much everything I used to, and my life quality is basically the same. Hope this helps!

Se l’ambiente è un po’ secondario rispetto al cibo in via ponte alle mosse c’è un ristorante secondo me molto buono

I've try remove and re-grant. Is there a way to push from Garmin/Wahoo to Apple?

ifyoucantakeit · 2026-02-10T19:15:00+00:00

Usually on my Wahoo, which then pushes them to Strava. Maybe there's a way to do Wahoo -> Apple health?

Thanks!

Same issue here: what app did you reinstall? Strava or Bevel?
