Does anyone have a power update in the area north of E Venice Ave. close to US41? Basically the various mobile parks (Bay Indies, etc.)? #venicefl @insideFPL

in case anyone is following this thread, it appears some power was restored yesterday to this area... some weird reports of only getting 110v service and being unable to run 220v appliances (electric stoves, AC units, etc)... not even sure that's an electrical "thing", but...
This morning I was reminded this morning of an incident this week. I was laughed at for writing sci-fi/fantasy as an author. “You do know you’re an adult that lives in the real world don’t you?” So just to prove a point, retweet if you’re an adult who reads sci-fi/fantasy.

@GoogleStadia Still no invite code. Actually also no ship confirmation, although my credit card got billed...

@GoogleStadia And now I have a shipment, but still no emailed invite code to get started, reserve my name, etc. So much for the "founders" edition...

Hot take: The NTSB's first serious analysis on bicycle safety in 47 years is full of lazy tropes and basically gives everyone who rides the middle finger. bicycling.com/culture/a29711…

If only @katiebusick had been in this shot, Google would have created the panorama trifecta of cool #necx photo/videographers! @BigBikesThom @505jelly 😃

Word of the day is 'bayard' (1600s): someone with an unshakeable self-confidence that is rooted in ignorance.

If you see the guy that owns this car, remind him that he's kind of a jerk for letting it sit all summer. Thankfully, my dad must be watching over me (or the car) and it started up and runs OK. You may remember a similar post about 3 months ago. #bestlaidplans #dontlooktooclose
Phew! That was a big training week, but a beautiful day after the craziness of yesterday's weather. #cycling #capecod #outnotin instagram.com/p/BzDoX_GFskYB…

I’m always amazed by the disconnect between what we see in the news and the reality of the world around us. As my late friend Hans Rosling would say, we must fight the fear instinct that distorts our perspective: b-gat.es/2WvUqqp

Great to see so many people outside enjoying a glorious weather day and tooling around Barnstable by bike while raising money for two great charities! Thanks @capeseasports! #cycling… instagram.com/p/BygZPbQlBySt…
If anyone's in the market for a magnetic USB charging cable/attachment solution. It seems this might work for those who do long-distance stuff and want a safer connection with a break-away option? bit.ly/2H6VU5O
Wondering if maybe it's time to form a pact where we don't yell or beep at fellow cyclists while driving? Invariably, beeps can't be categorized as "friendly" and just scare the crap out of you. Yells with you at 30+ and me at 15+ (hopefully more) always get translated (1/2)

by my brain as "Get the f**k out of the road!" regardless of how friendly the intent or actual words. Either way, my personal blood pressure spikes. Maybe we just give a shout-out later on Strava...? Or maybe it's just me...? (2/2)

Finally getting around to watching "the interview" just now. I hope to be a "happy, dead fish" in my next bike race wherever I finish! 😊
Bikes look funny without stems and handlebars, but thanks to Larry for working me over and fixing my fit. Apparently as your fitness and strength… instagram.com/dthempel/p/Bvh…
A properly done -- I think -- "recovery" ride feels damn good. Beautiful evening and light winds were the icing... #outnotin #capecod #sandyneck #cycling instagram.com/dthempel/p/Bvd…
