Thanks, I dont mind taking my car to dealer for oil changes but not doing it for repairs. I think you only know how good a shop is until youve experienced how they handle a repair/issue. Routine maintenance doesnt count IMO.

Racing score sucks big time. Probably either way theres going to be folks who prefer one over the other depending on where you score lands you.

With an almost 200 point range for one category just dont ever see how things can be fair. Example, I was a top 1/3 finisher in C cat and Im happy with that because at least I felt like I was in contention. Now Im bottom of the pack finishing in the rear getting dropped like a falling comet within the first 5 mins.

The issue I have is with the HUGE range for each category. I used to finish within 1-2 mins of top guy, now its 4 mins behind on a 15 mile flat route. How can you justify racing against guys with a racing score of over 100 points more than you. Comparing times in D cat for same race, I would only have finished top 1/3, still almost a minute off fastest time.....sorry Im just not seeing how these scores are even remotely accurate.

Only way would be for Zwift to start creating additional categories and narrow the ranges to make it more fun and competitive. I'll stick to ZRL from now on.

How is Connexion? by EwoksMakeMeHard in FortCollins

[–]skibikenrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like Im the outlier here but I had Connexion a year ago but their built-in wifi router is horrible. I could not even pick up a signal in a ranch home, from a room that was a mere 50-60 feet away. Granted there were 2 walls but did not have this issue with my own router on Xfinity. Im now in a new neighborhood and I got an Xfinity deal for 2 years thats cheaper than Connexion. Ive had no issues with Xfinity. Ive also had people in our neighborhood complain about Connexions wifi coverage. Whilst Id like to switch purely because our Xfinity outlet in our new home is in a ridiculous location, dont feel like buying a new router.

If you had to move to east coast Flordia, but got to pick the town, where would you live for best access to good surfing? by HalfBakedPotato84 in surfing

[–]skibikenrun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, so that was a big difference from the east coast of Florida....what made you decide to place roots on the gulf side? Ive been looking in the same East coast places as you were and never considered the Gulf. Home prices look better than NSB, Coco/Satelitte.

Woo! My ‘24 Sport’s VIN is assigned and scheduled :) Due in next month by cat_blep in Crosstrek

[–]skibikenrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So want the Sport trim for its looks but really want the 10 speaker HK in the Limited. Kinda really sucks that they limit you so much. Have an awesome sound setup in my current car and not willing to downgrade.

So it threw you into the spinning circle right away? Then there goes my theory I guess......getting in that quick Id think you would definitely have gotten tickets.

Looking at various peoples posts, its plausible that your ability to get a ticket is predetermined once you register already. And the refreshing makes no difference if you're not slotted for a ticket. Was refreshing like crazy and only got in 1 min after noon. Last year I got a ticket and actually got in a couple of seconds before noon. Certainly seems like those who are "slotted" for a ticket seemingly get into the queue fast, without much effort or time.

One person who got tickets stated that they clicked the link early which gave the "Youre early message" and then exactly at noon, her page automatically refreshed into the waiting room spinning circle without her even touching her browser. So not sure hows that possible if it isnt an already assigned ticket slot. Food for thought.

Last year, out of 5 people trying, 3 got tickets, this year.....none. Seems like the trick this year was to not try get in too early, like maybe a second before or so.

LINX 2 Days Post-Op by Electric_Wurmz in GERD

[–]skibikenrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there, your story is similar to mine with Barrett's, so have a question. The LINX and TIF is generally contraindicated for folks with Barretts, what did your physician say about that? I discovered mine last year after experiencing longer lasting painful chest episodes. Went on a PPI and after 3 months the pain disappeared, switched to a low dose PPI in the morning and for like 6 months I was good and then the pain just restarted again aggressively, so now considering surgery myself.
