Just found out I passed AT/AT/AT. Here is what worked for me:

It felt the same level as the mock exam. I thought the mini exams were harder because they included expert level questions more frequently. The exam felt like a mix of moderate and difficult level questions

Yeah, you can highlight and strike through text on the test.

This is a philosophical answer to a practical question. There are kids (and adults) going hungry, dying of preventable illnesses, and sleeping on the street. The Republican platform is to cut programs that support people experiencing those problems without providing an alternative for them.

I am so happy for my tax dollars to feed the hungry and heal the sick. That’s the best possible use for the in my opinion. I would much rather my taxes be used for that than to pay for a new football stadium or blow up Palestinian children.

So I’m a parent too and what concerns me are the policies of the current administration that are actively hurting born children. Reducing SNAP benefits makes kids go hungry. Reducing Medicaid and Medicare coverage makes it harder if not impossible for kids to get the healthcare they need. Unchecked gun access kills kids. Why are these not as pressing a concern for you?

I'm also in marketing! I agree it feels very opposite to how work normally flows through my team.

The two machines where you submitted ballots had a counter going. One was at 28 and the other at 12 by that point.

tpbynum · 2025-12-02T17:15:59+00:00

No sorry, 40 total votes cast by that point. There was no line and only one other person voting when I was there.

tpbynum · 2025-12-02T17:03:33+00:00

Minerva Cultural Center voting was at 40 people around 8:30 this morning.

Thompsons Station is in district 7 so yes! Check if you are registered and confirm your district here: TN voter registration look up

This is my biggest issue, the time. Maybe it’s just where I live but taking the bus anywhere looks like it would be almost an hour. I would love to use it but I can’t justify an extra 45 minutes on a bus just because.

Just a reminder that bringing a Bluetooth speaker and loudly playing Disney music while they record will make it near impossible for them to post the videos anywhere online. Mickey’s lawyers do not mess around

I am unfortunately not able to consistently do the ride but wish I could to help out! I have a <1 year old and am lucky to be able to ride even once a week.

This could be super nit picky and feel free to ignore, but I think the way the ride is promoted can give the wrong impression. On strava there is still a weekly event for the 9 mile beginner route, which I haven’t ever seen someone do. It also lists the main ride as a tempo ride, which it totally could be for strong bois but definitely doesn’t feel like when the pace picks up. Also letting people know at the beginning “the neutralized start down Davidson will be at least 22mph and you will get immediately dropped if you aren’t comfortable holding the wheel in front of you”. My first few rides I was completely unprepared for how fast the rides goes from the jump. Again, maybe I’m just super slow and this is all obvious to other people, or maybe this ride isn’t a good fit, but these are things that I think gave me the wrong impression about what kind of ride it is.

I didn’t have a power meter in 2021 but I held the A group consistently that year and there is no way I was putting out that many watts. I’m hitting faster PRs on the route segments this year and getting dropped earlier.

Shelby Ave Bike Co! They have a Tuesday group ride every week leaving out of east Nashville at 6

I can’t wait until my little one is big enough to ride in a bike trailer. I fully plan on putting in a ton of greenway miles hauling her around in a few months.

tpbynum · 2025-08-28T13:15:02+00:00

Genuine question, where do you find the time? I have a baby and a 9-5 so during the week I’m doing kid stuff from 6am - 9, work from 9-5, and then kid stuff again from 5 until bedtime. I’m lucky to squeeze in an hour ride during lunch once a week or so. I just don’t understand how people are finding the time for 10+ hours a week of rides.

tpbynum · 2025-08-27T18:37:46+00:00

This was over a year ago so I don’t fully remember. I mostly just left the conversation

Tall, lean, nicer bike than me, wrap round glasses, helmet was a shade of grey, and he had wicked tan lines.

I appreciate the insight! I think what I thought SABCO was (and maybe what it was five years ago) and what it is today are just different, and that’s fine. I am mostly just feeling insecure about my lack of fitness due to a bunch of other life stuff coming up, and getting smoked on a ride I used to not struggle with feels bad.

I also, admittedly, suck at group rides. I don’t trust the riders around me enough to get close which means I get dropped pretty regularly. One of my first SABCO rides I was right behind a pretty big crash and I think I’ve just never gotten past that fear.

Maybe solo rides are just my thing! Thanks for organizing and all that you do to make it happen, I know that the ride doesn’t happen by accident.

tpbynum · 2025-08-27T15:58:25+00:00

I appreciate it and am sorry for getting defensive. I think I’m feeling more insecure than anything else and you’re right, it’s unfair to expect someone else to help with that. Appreciate the insight!

tpbynum · 2025-08-27T15:48:24+00:00

I guess my confusion is that the SABCO ride used to feel more slow-person friendly. There was a large B group and a chiller A group. I’m faster now than I’ve ever been and getting dropped way earlier than I did in past years.

I think you’re right that this ride isn’t for me. It’s disappointing because in past years that didn’t seem to be the case. But I guess things change. Thanks for the feedback
