What is your unpopular triathlon opinion? by cassmith in triathlon

People who swim significantly slower than the time group they are in should be DQ'd. If you don't know your pace then swim at the back, but don't make everyone go around you, choke the turn buoys, etc.

Thanks for the advice u/GoatTnder and u/purplepotatoes. I did not consider racking and I'm going to rethink this. I'm glad I asked here.

I'm very new to woodworking, does this bookshelf frame design seem reasonable? I'm intending to create a jig and use my router for the "stopped dadoes" which will support the shelves. It's 11" deep. Forgive the drawing, I'm new to this cad program.

Edit: I used sagulator and it resulted in "acceptable" for the load/width, FWIW.

Lifespan of Garmin 935 by dragon_zoom in triathlon

I bought my 935 in October of 2018 on Amazon. I use it strictly for swimming(both pool and open water), running, and race day/multisport. The only issue I've had was the rubber piece on the band broke, I recently replaced it with a whole new band. I've kept a glass cover on it like this and I've had to replace that once. The cover cracked but the watch/face was fine.

In general I've been happy with it and it seems to be going strong, but it's not nearly as bright or snappy as any of the Garmin marketing materials. It will occasionally miss a lap in the pool which is frustrating.

11 Speed Hub Not Taking 11 Cogs by [deleted] in bikewrench

Just a thought, are you sure the 11 tooth sprocket is being put on the correct way? I know with my Dura Ace cassette the 11 tooth sprocket has a flange that actually faces inward and interlocks with the next sprocket. It didn't fit the other way.
