My friend who owns the local cafe, his older son is a young chef at Michelin* type places. The son and his friends, young chefs from Michelin* places, did a 10 course tasting menu as a pop-up tonight at the cafe. And it was amazing. Feel very lucky to have been invited and to get 3 Xtra seats π―ππ»

Literally said "Aces" to my friend when leaving after coffee this morning. Channeling my inner Saul Bloom. Think I'm gonna keep using it.
Apparently it did update the email, regardless of telling me the code was invalid. Still, there's a bug somewhere in your system for this.
@support.bsky.team I'm trying to update my email. All is well till I get the authentication email at the new email I want to use. I click the link and then the app tells me the verification code is invalid π€·π»ββοΈ. Trying this on the phone app. Will try later on the laptop. But still..

Panoramic picture of Lake Iseo, taken from the town of Sarnico, Italy, on a grey day.
My first rainy day after 10 days of π. In Sarnico. Know the v are well. All I wanted was pasta for lunch. Hard to find actually. Went into a touristy place (tho Lake Iseo isn't touristy). 10 local Nonnas walk in for lunch (must be a rglr thing). Good was ππ», but Nonna validation priceless π

I got lucky. My company sent me to Ireland to set to and run a sub. Loved it, decided to stay, guy citizenship. But if you have money you can do it.

House sat for a week in Capriolo. Planty of housing, not touristy, in the Lake Iseo area. Spent a lot of time here. Now looking at houses. The view from my friend's cafe in Adrara San Rocco. The world is a big place, but the reality is it's not that easy for πΊπΈ to move to πͺπΊ
I'm assuming you've read Spotto's biography. Tho obvs not by a woman. Ms. Monroe and her life are topics I know well from a lot of professional exp years ago, but inappropriate for public discourse. And this is the book I was told to read. www.amazon.com/Marilyn-Monr...
But there not all the same, look for one that is not built for racing, had a more "relaxed" geometry (your more upright when riding).

As pointed out, that is a road bike. The most important thing about about any bike is the fit. Hardtails are much more comfortable than road bikes (my road bike is basically permanently attached to a smart trainer).

Walking my dog on San Vincente in Brentwood in late 00's. Guy sitting outside a restaurant with his two dogs. Talked dogs with Ryan O'Neal for a couple of minutes while the dogs sized each other up.
Lost in Translation is always a great movie. And for personal reasons, the Evelyn Waugh scene is, and always has been, just perfection.
Did a 2.5/5 route on Zwift this morning, after *only* doing 1/5 routes so far. 21k, a (to me) real hill, but I finished it π. Legitimately feel it in my quads, but well worth it. Tomorrow will be an easier route tho π
Thanks ππ»
13.1k full loop on Zwift this morning. And like yesterday avg over 31kph. So getting back in shape, and feels great. At some point I'll try a level 2 route, but def within my way towards that slowly π
@zwiftrides.bsky.social hi. Question if you don't mind: is there a way to see the profile of a route ahead of time?
So, calibrated the Kickr. My wK went up ~50%. The Kickr app said first calibration. It had been moved a fair bit during the painting of the house. Anyhoo, I think the wK makes more sense now. I'll still very average ππ»π
I need to ride ~15k tomorrow to reach my weekly Zwift goal, and hopefully I will.
13k Zwifting today ππ». Felt easy.* Did the full loop. Was a flat course, but still.
*Hopefully not famous last words. And I did take yesterday off. Finally averaged over 100 watts.**
** Lowered my weight in the app after the ride, bc pretty sure I weigh less and am underestimating power.
