The Road ID app looks nice BUT it’s bad that the “eCrumb” maps use unencrypted http URLs, with relatively short “secret identifier” phrases in the URL as the only access control. And I don’t see any way to delete old maps, which persist after your ride ends.

Does it require a paid membership to do this with Strava? They seem to have a much better handle on privacy and security.

Thanks. I’m not sure it’s plantar. The pain is entirely in my arch, not my heel, and biking is fine, it’s walking that is uncomfortable. But the symptoms match what I’ve read about cycling & plantar on cycling websites.

I plan on attending. Thanks to all organizing this!

My morning commute made possible by: Bikeshare.
Unexpected smile: the group of jogging…firefighters maybe? who all barked out “good morning!’ in near unison as I passed by them on the Four Mile Run Trail this morning.

In red shirts, with someone in front carrying a flag? Back of the shirts read ACFD so yeah, firefighters or fire cadets I think. A cheery bunch.

Hey! where was that idea last year?

Ha. I hate to guess how much $ it would have required to get a guy who rides unsupported double centuries for fun to back off.

Thank you, Sunyata!

On the MVT around parkway mile marker 3.5 (toward the southern end, where the trail sits on the west side of the road) there’s a tree down. It only extends a few feet past the trail and there’s plenty of grass for riding around it (slick wooden bridges are far more trouble today). NPS has been informed.

The NPS link for MVT is now bad. Try http://www.nps.gov/gwmp/planyourvisit/conditions.htm

The not-yet-open spur trail is supposed to be paved with highly permeable material like what’s under the benches at the Sunday farmers market site. The main trail is traditional asphalt and mercifully free of the cracks and seams found on the older stretch by the ball fields.

Thanks. BTW autocorrect decided on “trashed” — I tried to suggest you might have “tweaked” the production config.

This is particularly worrisome for Freezing Saddles since every mile counting encourages folks to start recording at home. Can BAFS get data on “private” rides? Looks like it should be able to if it requested “view_private” scope. I won’t be offended if you tell me to RTF code, and hope you aren’t offended that I haven’t investigated further. I could rationalize that you might’ve trashed the production code but truth is I’m lazy.

Wait, the Wolverine replaced the old project fixie? Well then, yes, you do.

Do fat bikes have enough “float” for me to ride through the river of my own tears? (Doesn’t matter, cos I’m not getting one. )

Did I mention ?

I’d be more likely to cry for you if not for the Wolverine build rockford10 let you buy.

What about sand and mud?
