Try using Penguin or Win, they are made for technical gear and rinse much cleaner. Thanks for sharing the NPR PRP piece. It wasn't very conclusive, as none of the coverage is, but I like hearing the different POVs. I'll never know for sure if it truly helped me, all I know is that I was a lot better within 10 days which could have been a coincidence. I don't regret it.

It was not pretty! Way to persevere through the tough ones! Kevin – great post – I was thinking of you knowing that you were probably on the road when the rain came through my area.

Does that come standard on google now? ;) And this is cliche: when it rains it pours! In your case, with things going wrong. Glad you were able to mash out some strong miles. Re: Water bottle cages and looseing/stretching. Are yours aluminum? Aluminum ones will lose their tension over time after they are bent in and out due to the removal and replacement of the bottle. I hear carbon fiber cages are pretty solid, but I have never used one before. haha, nice map! Does that come standard on google now? ;)
