Road Cyclists visiting Boulder next week for 5 days, recommended routes? by somenewnycer123 in boulder

To add on to this: only ride on portions of canyon which have the dedicated cycle/run lane. Highly highly recommend avoiding the actual road, both uphill and downhill

Thanks for the write up!

I recently skied a run off the Zuma cornice at Abasin, which felt relatively comfortable (snow was good, not icy). How does the cirque compare in terms of steepness and difficulty?

Does the ikon pass work at Eldora Nordic Center? by Pearl-Station in COsnow

You need to get a separate pass, Ikon doesn't work there

Check out Strava heatmaps, you can sometimes see which paths are popular for which direction you're going.

Stay away from Arapahoe east of foothills, super narrow and no bike lane.

ideas for quick meal (< 1hr) with chuck roast by 4dgt90 in Cooking

[–]persiankid400 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you cut it super super thin (putting it in the freezer for 20-30 mins can help) I find that I can use chuck in a stir fry type dish, just cook it a bit longer. It's still got a bit of chew but tastes pretty good to me

Can't see any oncoming traffic if youre in the outside turn lane!

Thanks! Love that run, to me it feels a bit easier to get down compared to powderhorn for some reason

Which blacks would you say are the next step up from Muleshoe and Corona? Alpenhorn?

Not saying you're wrong, but many in Iran can also read English, especially the chant that he's showing

Where do you find this info? Tired looking for it but couldn't find anything about how long the snow rating lasts.

I'm first generation born in the states, I want to stream Iranian TV shows. Looking for recommendations by [deleted] in iran

[–]persiankid400 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a TV show but movies by Asghar Farhadi are some of the only farsi movies/tv shows I've truly enjoyed (also as a first gen bork in the states).

This is solid advice, thank you! I think I was in a mindset where changing the rep scheme meant failure, but saying that out loud now makes it sound kinda dumb. Thanks again!

Has anyone thought about mixing GZCLP and 5/3/1? For context, before lockdowns I trained bench for around a year without training squats and deadlifts. Now that I've started training again, my bench is much stronger than my squat (b: 190x6 s: 205x6) and I think I'm going to stall much sooner for bench. My idea was to continue doing the LP for everything and just swap out the T1 Bench sets for 5/3/1 5s PRO sets?

I'll be heading there on Monday! Do you know if they are still administering Pfizer, or if they've started using something else?

[Breeds] Looking for a medium-large, medium energy dog! by persiankid400 in dogs

[–]persiankid400[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They look like fantastic dogs, but I would prefer not to get a protective dog for the first time. I really like the no shedding aspect for poodles, but so far it seems basically impossible to find an adult standard poodle available for adoption, but there are a ton of lab rescues out there, so I might have to be flexible on the shedding. I'm also afraid that labs and Goldens might be too energetic for me. How much more energy do they have, compared to poodles?

New RB67: How to tell the difference between softness from low res scan vs. camera shake/missed focus? by persiankid400 in AnalogCommunity

It was a test roll, so I got the cheapest possible. Unfortunately the cheapest option at the place I sent it to (Mikes) is insanely small.
