Pretty sweet! I’m still trying to learn to wheelie my mountain bike so that I can learn to manual after that…

Thanks for the info!
I actually know a bit about low-inflammation diets (mostly low meat and being selective on carbs) from when I was running track. I always saw it as a high-performance thing, but some habits have stuck around. And for a long time I’ve done Meatless-Mondays since it’s an easy and mostly thought-less thing to do.
Thanks!! Just did a bunch of insulin research and added key takeaways to my notes. I’m pretty great at getting good sleep, and work has finally started to slow down making my life feel far less stressful
Thus far, I’ve been pretty un-safe when it comes to mountain biking. Lot’s of little crashes that could have been easily avoided. Fortunately I hate crashing and have been working on risk analysis and I don’t think I’ll lose out on much fun by being 20% safer. I’m currently down-tuning one of my bikes to make it less capable so that it’ll be more fun on simpler trails. With a super capable bike, it sometimes feels like you have to ride the gnarliest things to be having fun. Riding a gravel bike (the least capable of the off-road bikes) on one of my least favorite boring trails was eye-opening to me on how fun “under-biking” is. And any speed decrease increases safety a lot.
I sprained both my wrists in a bike crash, then just as they were nearly healed I crashed again and sprained just my left wrist. After like 9 months it was still bothering me a bit so I decided to go to physical therapy and the exercises cleared everything up in ~3 weeks. Wish I’d known earlier that a brace and limiting movement wasn’t actually helping anything.
I’ve got the supplements, just need to work on making a habit of taking them…
Little bits throughout the day are probably better than lots once a week
I sit at a desk a TON. Started having back problems and was trying to work in exercises to help. What ended up working for me is an hourly notification that gives me a random exercise to do. I’ll usually do a few other exercises with each break as well. It’s been a miracle for my back, and definitely is something I plan to stick with - and should be good for arthritis too it seems!
Great info, thank you!! I’m compiling the things I’ve learned to make a personal list of things to try to add more of to my life, and things to try and have less of. I’m starting to realize that diet isn’t something to ignore just because I’m fit…
Great info, thank you! Adding it to my notes.
I wish… Meant hairier 🙃
I’m harrier than that…
I’d buy Magic The Gathering and just make it less greedy
My coffee ritual has started getting super complicated, but if James Hoffman tells me I need to do my pour over with two kettles at once in order to reduce acidity, I’ll do it.
The bike is in my garage normally which is usually quite a bit warmer than outside, but by no means heated. I kinda doubt condensation or water are what’s happening just because in both cases the rear wheel was unboxed, installed, and taken for a ride and failed on that first ride.
I don’t really know the basics of oil vs gease but will be doing more research before changing anything :)
Great to hear, I’ll do some research and give it a try this weekend. Thanks!
Thanks, I’ll do some testing this weekend!
And Cues is great so far (9 months) - but for a commuter bike in a flat area I wonder if I should have gone with fewer gears to have a wider chain for longevity reasons. Not much chain wear yet, I just wonder.
As a teen, I once went to open the microwave but the handle wasn’t attached, it just lifted off. I think one of my siblings broke it and then placed it back carefully. Half my family was in the room when I lifted the handle off and to this day they don’t believe me that it offered 0 resistance and that someone else might have broken it. We kept that microwave for years after that and just had to pry it open with finger nails.
I didn’t figure it out… Haven’t gone back to visit. But the water definitely could be part of the issue - it’s well water that’s super high in Sulfer so it smells like a hot springs. I didn’t really notice the smell unless I was showering. But I didn’t consider what it’d do to the coffee!
Thanks! No Asian markets in my town… Don’t love being so reliant on Amazon 🙃 Anyway, I looked up the Korean morning coffee and I guess it has an egg yolk, pinch of salt, pine nuts, and a couple drops of sesame oil. And you either leave the yolk intact and have it like a prairie oyster at the end of your cup, or you stir it in as a kind of creamer. I don’t have pine nuts, but I tried both methods without them this morning - prairie oysters are not my favorite… And then you have an egg aftertaste instead of a coffee one. Mixing the egg made the drink very rich, which made me imagine strong chocolate notes. Feels a lot like breakfast in a cup, which I think is by design. Probably adds a good amount of nutrition. But I don’t think it improves upon plain black coffee. Kinda just a different drink. Fun to try, I’ll try it again after I pick up some pine nuts.
I’m excited for the Vietnamese egg coffe - I watched a couple videos and it looks super fun
It’s called a BruTrek and is a local product for me. I was hesitant to pick it up in case it was garbage but at least at my level, it’s been great. They seem like coffee nerds and the packaging convinced me. My wife has a fancy electric grinder for her espresso and we compared the two (as best as we could) and I don’t think there was any difference that could have been more than my pouring inconsistency. Years from now I might experiment with grinders that are known to be excellent though 😁
The hot dogs I’ve been eating all my life didn’t even make the list…
