Would You Wear an Air-Filled Cycling Backpack If It Could Reduce Drag and Improve Safety?
  • 'cause the UCI are dickheads and want to live in 19..f@#k!ng..10. Let fixate on sock height, frame weight, aero tuck and shifter angles, but ignore road furniture, dickhead crowds assaulting riders and fine riders when the organisers cant organise (looking at you Vuelta)

  • PSA: Grayjay is really good
  • Great app. I often go where there is no connectivity so I can still play music. My only wish was that the resume on play lists is better. It's kinda guess which song you were last on and you have to tap this dinky link that drops away pretty quick.

    I paid for the app as I'd rather give LR my $$$ than the d!(kh3@ds at Google.

  • Agile Rule
  • Why is your stand up 1hr, WTF? 10-15m (MAX)

  • Strava alternative?
  • If you are serious about training, Training Peaks is probably a great alternative. Strava is the Facebook of activity apps so not really great if you're committed. There is a free plan for TP, but I'm not sure what the limitations are... I pay for it and can track the history of the key metric that matter to me such Power, Heart Rate, Training Zones, Freshness, Power bands etc. There are a LOT of analytical graphs to provide insights into your progress. The key is the more data you collect, the more value there is. i.e. Sleep tracking, weight, HRV, cadence etc.

  • Josh Frydenberg breaks silence on political comeback rumours amid Liberal Party criticism
  • Mate! Nobody cares. In fact: Left, right, independent? Canberra is an elitist inner circle playing revolving door, merry go round with our future. You fix nothing and sit in the parliament bitching at each other like immature teenagers playing the blame game.

  • ASUS ROG Ally X Debuts with $799.99 Price Tag - FullCleared
  • Asus is trash. The last "gaming" laptop I bought could not be upgraded and the performance was terrible for the specs. Never Asus again.

  • Nike Run Club app for Cycling?
  • Management Summary of indoor tech. Zwift gets expensive and frankly can be a bit wanky... sold as this online happy family. Most of the time you're just in the hurt locker anyway. Try IndieVelo as an alternative. Actively under development, GREAT anti-cheat feature and it's free (for now). Graphics is a bit dated, but you get over it. Also may I suggest investing in TrainingPeaks as this is the go-to app for people that train (there is a free version with limitations) . Strava is the Facebook of cycling and ads little value other than 'Look at my ride". TrainerRoad is for hardcore trainers that have solid goals. Boring as bat shit so you'll likely pair it with something like indieVelo or Zwift anyway to beat the boredom. They do have AI FTP, which has pro's and con's. (Research is suggesting that FTP is not as good a reflection of Functional Threshold and some coaches only work off Critical Power and Max Aerobic Power) There are many other apps, but I guess these are probably the main one's. Also most of the value come from Power Meters and trainers. GPLama and DC Rainmaker are the authority on accuracy on this stuff. Research Power Meters and Indoor Trainers on their websites as there are lots of snake oil manufacturers.

    Now go and be awesome...

  • Strava is adding dog step counts and fitness rankings to its app
  • Agreed on the 'free' app, but ... even as a free app, it even pales in comparison of the other free apps.... Training Peaks, Intervals.icu, VeloViewer to name just a few.

  • Strava is adding dog step counts and fitness rankings to its app
  • Strava is useless as a training tool and terrible as a community tool. It's pointless and overpriced for what does.

  • I'm a US citizen, people in other countries, what do you think when you read stories like these about the US health care system?
  • I can't believe governments and companies put such a "price" on people's health. I must say the news about the US Health System is also echoed by all the other US companies I have dealt with in my professional capacity. Profits before people and sales before outcomes.

    I/We avoid using them when we can...

  • Heā€™s everywhere in Perth ā€“ but is Basil Zempilas the man to save the WA Liberals?
  • There is nothing lordly about this idiot! He has no clue, and a mouth like an annoying 50cc motorcycle; Loud and producing nothing of substance;

  • Best Gluten Free Beers :: Gluten Free Beer Headquarters
  • From experience, most GF beers taste like 5h!t and don't match the G version. I've given up on GF Beers and switched out to Cider, Red Wine and Whiskey... It's just one of those things, no sub for the real thing. Maybe in time it will change but for now... meh.

  • Taiwanā€™s new president: Five things you need to know about William Lai
  • Reading through the CEO's statement, it seems like he's not just kicking 170 out;

    • Five months of salary (plus an additional week for every full year at Discord)
    • Five months of benefit continuation
    • Three months of outplacement services
    • Equity vesting of awards scheduled to vest on Feb. 1, 2024
    • Continued access to Modern Health through the end of 2024, and more

    Is this unusual? Seems like there is a 5mo opportunity to find new employment without having to work. I mean this sounds better than some of the other Silicon Valley douche bags. What am I missing?

  • Gladiators is coming back!
  • Why? Don't we have enough reality TV shit? FFS way to go at dumbing down the population even more....

  • Melbourne Cup: most Australians have little or no interest in ā€˜race that stops the nationā€™, Essential poll finds
  • So gambling is how a nation defines itself? Not science or innovation or having the brightest students or the most entrepreneurial business people or producing the most food but gambling on farm yard animals.... Wow, that's weak!

  • You WILL pet NAHLA as well

    Looking for a Gnocchi recipe that is not Tomato or Mushroom based

    I don't know if I am asking the impossible but I'm looking for a potato gnocchi sauce to accompany the gnocchi that does not contain mushrooms or tomato. I have two respective family members that excludes these ingredients and I am sure as shit not going to make 2 different sauces.
