No junk miles riding through town, no coasting, etc.<br/><br/>There’s a more subtle benefit: when I’m riding on the road, whatever zone I’m trying to stay in, there will be a lot of excursions from that zone, so I’m not getting the ideal training effect from that ride (to be clear, I’m fine with that). Also, riding at fixed power on the stationary has made me a lot better at holding steady power on the road in situations where I might tend to waver.<br/><br/>But I think the biggest benefit for me is that the stationary is always right there. It takes me 3 minutes to get ready for an erg ride. Bad weather isn’t an excuse.

Also, winds, grades, road surface, etc become confounding factors. 2025-07-09T00:14:03Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs2w6xt65xtkyyfj0tgjv0djcl7cqd5rf7e7l3433hv3nc2hetjr7szyqj7z2aja5q7gnu8x8ma67n4q04ce9yjj0e7cy3xwau53l2wgmd7v8tkuxl In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswrf9v7u8mx2qr8zjrxw4hgwh3tpwq05j705qe6ekkjdrtpkszrtqxnqdvy'>nevent1q…qdvy</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Interesting.

It&#39;s somewhere between a tour and a race: they don&#39;t keep track of who finishes first, but you do need to finish before a certain cutoff time (and also hit certain intermediate checkpoints on a certain schedule). Sort of like a rally in motorsports, if that&#39;s helpful. If you&#39;ve ever heard of Paris-Brest-Paris, that&#39;s the granddaddy of all brevets. Distances and cutoff times are standardized; for 1000K, it&#39;s 75 hours. Which doesn&#39;t leave a lot of time for sleep. Every chapter that organizes brevets will have its own routes; my local chapter has a &#34;cloverleaf&#34; pattern, where you ride a long loop the first day, a (comparatively) short loop the second, and an in-between loop the third. All three loops starts and ends at the same place, a motel that is the de-facto HQ. 2024-11-30T23:40:35Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqdlz888kh4q0yqu0qzuy0nz2hjuqdd39xc3g4mmcffzxh9s868jszyqj7z2aja5q7gnu8x8ma67n4q04ce9yjj0e7cy3xwau53l2wgmd7vx6q8ra In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsgkgf28jzyyy95u5npf6hamuqk805pql7rmm6v8yy62uxsc4zlphs0zja9z'>nevent1q…ja9z</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I really want to complete a 1000 K brevet in ‘25. 2024-11-30T22:54:55Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs8z0jsm52d3s40pqy90advskrkkalg0gwnn8s02pghehnppsqff6szyqj7z2aja5q7gnu8x8ma67n4q04ce9yjj0e7cy3xwau53l2wgmd7vrytjze In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs8x846kutl2xlxkrlgz9gvcttevatzk5832ddcqwqfxtu5ue6ehkq6mh89n'>nevent1q…h89n</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Seems like they should have given her special recognition for putting one over on them. 2024-11-11T18:12:12Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqspft75hrlxrpl9tgk20zdzlslndvc885jasr40jt54klnvn4q3fwszyqj7z2aja5q7gnu8x8ma67n4q04ce9yjj0e7cy3xwau53l2wgmd7v769nl2 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsrzga2atqlqesfs68hl36x4j857xlukm07dra9c86c9hmk53sulvg7ae54r'>nevent1q…e54r</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>If I’m riding, say 4x8@105 on the trainer, my heart rate just doesn’t come up to cruising altitude on the first interval. 2024-10-12T12:50:01Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs920txprzjvnc4l7we7s0qy4f6mtyam3rf92ewu3ggamwh0e4zguszyqj7z2aja5q7gnu8x8ma67n4q04ce9yjj0e7cy3xwau53l2wgmd7vt7wtld In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsfjgl5enmlndy2e5erl8vmqm6zjstr58xd4qxpp4ukvxp4s0skpzqdaz9uk'>nevent1q…z9uk</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I’ve never used it, but apparently ceramic coating is pretty good.

My impression is that every tiny bit of friction involved in being more organized makes it less likely you’ll be more organized.<br/><br/>For example, I used to depend on a piece of software for manually categorizing the e-mail that my filters could not; changes to MacOS caused the author to abandon it, so now I’m using different software that kinda-sorta lets me do some of the same things. What used to be one keystroke is now two or three. And I find I just fall behind on categorizing as mail comes in, and then about once a week need to do it in batch more. 2024-09-25T18:08:28Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs0d3hfg8vjl3x6ar3r735jtdjvfr24x8muj33sj4ytjszk88c6w8czyqj7z2aja5q7gnu8x8ma67n4q04ce9yjj0e7cy3xwau53l2wgmd7vcn6ta6 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsyyevrj97cuup6tqzv2elu38xv60cjt5gvplskpg9aacrhdzlzn8cp35p99'>nevent1q…5p99</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>A line must be drawn, and it must be drawn *here*! 2024-09-19T17:56:01Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsxpncahhr8ltg32sejr73utdx4rjnm05y4nwfa37q0u2tzrf438ygzyqj7z2aja5q7gnu8x8ma67n4q04ce9yjj0e7cy3xwau53l2wgmd7v3pchck In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsttw0sy08lg6mtnjpfa5v2hgkvycpradjqh4r08k3pwz3v4v9nklchrq77h'>nevent1q…q77h</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>None of the batteries with me on a ride can be replaced.

They have a lot of cuneiform tablets.

Arthur Anderson came back and said “pay everyone 25¢ every time they board.” Obviously DC did not go with that plan.<br/><br/>I visited Portugal a couple years back and noticed that in Porto and Lisbon, they had tap-in pillars for fare cards scattered around the platforms, but there was no mechanism to enforce payment. 2024-08-02T15:16:21Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsrw9lcpdk4lenmm9ms5hpq8hd5qq43dy5jagtzknykp6ndg4cr7lczyqj7z2aja5q7gnu8x8ma67n4q04ce9yjj0e7cy3xwau53l2wgmd7vt2mm6m Here&#39;s my #introduction for this instance.<br/><br/>Interested in #bikes #cycling , especially #RoadCycling &amp; #UltraCycling , also #BurngingMan but more than that #RegionalBurns especially #BurningFlipside .
