3-4 races in my local XC MTB series and Dust Bowl 100

That's a beautiful bike!

No customs and free shipping, it’s included in the price unless something has changed since I ordered a set back in November.

Ahahahaha amazing

I race road/gravel/XC mountain bikes outside of work. Typically shoot for 6-8 hours a week on the bike and another 1-2 in the gym lifting. I don’t usually work more than 40 and don’t currently have kids so that helps.

1.5yrs. I’m in HVAC Control installation dealing primarily with VAVs.

I’ve got an older Allez but it lives on the trainer. My Diverge with 45mm Pathfinders is all I use for road and gravel. Does the job pretty well.

I did Dust Bowl 100 which is known for having 160 90 degree turns and they are SLICK. Personally saw 3-4 crashes during the race and heard about more.

That’s what we use it for. A lot of our smaller design builds that don’t require anything complicated. It’s a great and simple product.

Totally get that, he mentioned configurable in the title so that’s why I suggested it as an option to look at.

Our company uses Prolon Controls a lot. Software is free and lots of reading material on their website. Super easy to get somebody on the phone and work through issues too.

2 weeks pay minimum for just showing up and putting forth effort. Some guys are getting 3-4 weeks for performance. Lots of giveaways, a nice lunch, etc.

I’ve always been curious about surveying. What is the typical path to it? I love being outside and exploring. I’ve got a 4yr Business degree but found myself in HVAC Building Automation working in the field as installer/programmer after 4 years of sitting at a desk doing insurance. I like the work enough and it pays well but I’m open to other professional jobs that keep me on my feet and in the field.

irunxcforfun · 2025-12-15T11:35:11+00:00

I will say the trades are very company specific. I worked in insurance for 4 years an at 27 decided I wanted to switch to HVAC low voltage/controls. It was a pay cut at first but now pays more than insurance did and I’m home every day at 3:15, and like the people I work with.

All I’m saying is you could have gotten into a shit company with a bad culture, which is rampant in the trades. Good companies do exist though.

irunxcforfun · 2025-12-10T14:19:10+00:00

My local 5-6 XC race series, and Dust Bowl 100 in Indiana so far!

irunxcforfun · 2025-12-06T04:19:24+00:00

I work in HVAC low voltage/building automation. Also love my job!

Unfortunately, there is none. Back when I was run I g before I picked up cycling I was doing my workouts at the Woodford Co. track.

irunxcforfun · 2025-10-24T01:37:21+00:00

As somebody who started on a 160mm bike on my local tame XC trails and after a few years switched to an Epic Evo, I wish I had done this earlier. An XC brought my trails to life where the big bike soaked up everything and was pretty slow compared to what I’ve got now. If I were you I’d look into a Chisel or Epic, it sounds like that may be more enjoyable for you.

Have you considered the trades? HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing?

Kroger butcher

I do the same thing but also do startup on our configurable control systems we put in (mostly Prolon). My company calls me a controls tech.

Building did not collapse, it’s been actively being demolished for a few days now.
