    Why do people have coaches for years on end?

    I have 3 different layers of base instructions to keep this at bay. My bots are all kind of a dick. The coach is especially brutal. It still crops up once in a while but it helps that I'm aware of it and on the lookout. Definitely not an external motivator - I still have to have the discipline...

    Why do people have coaches for years on end?

    (admittedly did not read all of the above so apologies if this has already been said) I wrote a Google Gemini bot that gives me a training plan. I'unno if it's as good as a person but it gives me the accountability and detailed plan that's been mentioned here. Daily pings at 5AM telling me what...

    Post a picture of your next bike part or mtb gear on order!

    I love the Codes on my big bike. The Levels on my do-everything bike are.....ok. I've been looking at Mavens and just haven't committed yet.

    Ticks

    You can spray your yard but the next time it rains or your grass grows, you're back to square one. And then those chemicals end up in the waterways and affect crustaceans in the rivers. The next time a raccoon or a stray cat or a deer walks through, you're reinfested. (Disclaimer: talk with...

    Things that make you frown :(

    This is my biggest pet peeve on the trails. I don't want another broken collarbone, but that will heal. More importantly, pulmonary contusions from a bike wheel rolling over a dog's chest are a bad way to die in a vet hospital. Ask me how I know....

    Ticks

    In this part of the country you don't need to go to wooded areas. I used to live in a second-floor apartment in Yonkers and would find several ticks inside every year. Lil bastards scare the hell out of me.

    Tell me where you rode today...

    That's Bravecto. It's.... fine. It's great against fleas for the full 12 weeks but its tick protection tapers off pretty rapidly after the first month. Glad it's working for you but it makes me nervous in this part of the country. It's probably perfectly fine for my mom's dogs back home in KS...
