Passed a "pickleball" court today when it was full.
It is just a concrete handball/football field readapted, sits behind a building.

On the front side of that building there is a very busy two lane road running like 2 meters from the windows.
On the back is the "pickleball" court where there is constant thumping, moaning and swearing of "people" who never did anything moderately exerting or competitive in their lives and this is now their serious life and death thing.

The forsaken inhabitants of that building should start some vigilantism about it all.




 >>/124721/
Very millenial-coded """sport""" similar enough to real sport so it inherits all the mechanics which make the real sport what it is, but with some twist that nerfs it, creates a new niche where the ironic, avantgarde, not engaging in brutish competition behavior, ex-hipster distance-haver millenial can feel right at home displaying his superiority but also some dynamics, like he was drinking his favorite hazy west coast pomegranate IPA while on a silent disco.

Plus, there are like 8 separate courts fitted in that space. There were at least 20 people there. I expected it to be noticeable but it is fucking loud.
You can't open a window in that building, on either side, from March till November during daytime.

It calculates the eggs from the expended kj not the total kcal count actually.
Example from my powermeterless ride here I get 3600 kj = 47 eggs from the estimated 231 average watts while it gives me a total of 6500 kcal for the entire activity. Idk why the total kcal count is even that high here but thats besides the point.
for hiking it probably has no watt estimation so I assume it does not differentiate and just goes kj = kcal




















 >>/124752/
Yes, one thing is that if it makes people improve their cardiovascular and overall wellbeing - gwan, wave your stupid paddles, do your kung fu or ciabatta, ride your gr*vel bike.

Could just a whole bunch of them, the millennial cohort specifically, stop being immediately elitist about it like they are finally finally living their highschool fantasies about being the sports jock, especially when these people are almost all out of shape.


> In the *Vals Plat* podcast, Segaert speaks at length about the World Championships in Canada. He recounts the day Quinten Hermans and Tiesj Benoot headed out for a training ride. For the occasion, they ventured toward the United States, as the Belgian team was camped nearby. However, the pair had overlooked one thing. "They were stopped there because they hadn't filled out an ESTA in advance," Segaert said. "You need one even when on a bike. The customs officers didn't find it amusing; the riders were stuck there for a few hours filling out all sorts of paperwork. In the end, they weren't allowed to ride a single meter further and returned to Canada."

What's up with TT bike raping, this thing just feels really odd to me. Up to Lt1, 280-290W everything feels very easy and good, almost easier than being on the regular road bike. Then you cross over LT1 and everything's super hard suddenly, like you just get the urge to stop with the aero tuck and grind on on the basebar... Oh well, something to practice in the winter I guess. Watched the OJ Simpson documentary series, essential viewing to understand the ameriberts I guess




 >>/124788/
Yeah I'm also guessing it's something like that, just beats me how it's as easy as road riding under lt1 (HR and rpe really low) and then much harder over lt1. Like why would the LT1 be the same between the road and TT positions and then the LT2 differ significantly - though only indoors as outdoors I can do FTP intervals on the TT bike with my road watts...


 >>/124791/
Yeah I only watched the first two episodes so still 4.5h to go, but already it's a very good documentary and presenting a strong central argument.

Also Kasper Borremans and Miko Pirinen now riding the MU EC. Hoping for top10 for Kasper and top30 for Miko

Who designed this shit lmao






































































Opus 5.5 is doing a pretty good job with the db. No clutter, no single value rows, no complete bullshit design.
I still have to rearrange this or that but it is nice starter. And it ate like 6% of my 5h allowance on the cheap loicense.

I have no doubt I'd be wide eyed in old New York, but in Polska restaurants went to the moon with prices during covid and never went down, even in my smalltown.

For ten bucks you can get a full good quality meal, not an unremarkable but nice sandwich, or a very good pidser or just say fu to some loser who wants to rip you off by not paying that.

And now they are trying to force US-style tipping culture.









 >>/124888/
on the trein the other day I overheard a conversation, where a guy told the other guy that he flew to New York with a friend just to eat at one of the fancy restaurants and it cost them 2000 Swiss Francs (the official currency of the UCI). what made it funny was that they just picked up something from McDonalds to eat on the train (which I hate because it smells).










 >>/124904/
Well that area is very well served by subway so easy to get around to other parts of city from there

Minetta Tavern is right there and is classic NYC spot
John's of Bleecker Street, Prince Street Pizza, and Rubirosa are great pizza spots in that area



 >>/124912/
The /cyc/ office pays me far too much. Bertina and I like fine dining, we try to go somewhere really nice like once a quarter. We went to EMP to celebrate her starting a new job and then again this year when they had a special dinner with chef from Central in Lima, Peru (which was the place that turned us on to fine dining in the first place).
