The more realistic goal is the 3 hour 100k which i set my fastest on the day of my fastest 100 mile. My second fastest time i set in the dress rehearsal for the 100 mile. Both days were hot. If I can avoid that fate I think I can do it.

On that note, are any #cyclists doing #tourdepalmsprings? It's by no means an A event for me but I am going to attempt a 5 hour century. I've never attempted one before. The closest I got i was pacing for someone else's attempt. 28 minutes is a lot to shave off but also I went out of the gate […]

@wjmaggos @Cheesetruck excellent
December 18, 2025 at 9:04 PM
thanks to @Cheesetruck for accepting. @wjmaggos you're kinda the star of the show. Are you able to make it Sunday? I can always move it to January, if that is better.

@wjmaggos maybe you could point folks that haven't done the live thing to some different shows to check out. I've done the live show thing a decade and a half ago. I definitely get it but the problem with live stuff is multi-facted but timezones are the most obvious one @ryno @bsots @Cheesetruck […]

@wjmaggos @ryno @bsots @Cheesetruck @lorenzosmusic well, @wiloma did tell me he was going to try, and @alien23 I think might come but I spoke to him about Monday initially...but only Jessica has accepted the invite.

@wjmaggos @ryno @bsots @Cheesetruck @lorenzosmusic as much as I would like to have this conversation on Mastodon, people don't seem to want to do that. I think you'll just need to come to the meeting on Sunday and convince folks this is a project worth working on.

So far, only Jessica has said […]

When we started @friendsofccmusic I tried to get folks to manage special interest groups but no one had time. I still don't see how we get anything done w/o folks organizing smaller pods.

The let's build technology to help people crowd is different than the let's hang out & have fun crowd. Both […]

gonna try again next Monday (Dec 22) at http://meet.jit.si/ccmusic.

My thought for promoting the music portion is to start a #netlabel called "One and Done." We will release exactly one release and then other #netlabels can pick them up. @wjmaggos is looking for a place to have folks land […]

Ended the stream because wife is home and need to do lunch. I could have just left the stream on but would be pretty boring while I'm gone...

I enjoyed The Doom That Came For Gotham. Still an hour and 20ish minutes to go. I'd like to do some longer form typing but I think that's probably too much mental energy with that much to go

I'd be more engaged if I was racing but the fatigue would also be higher. Is what it is. An hour and 50ish minutes to go...

Eternia politics was too much for the bike so off to Batman

They said "hellhole" in something PG but um there are in their version of hell, and they literally just blew a hole in the ceiling/ground so um, yeah, I guess so...

I'd love to watch some anime or something but 3 hours on the bike means need to conserve some brain power. No subtitles...maybe if I am feeling great at the end i can turn something on, but I am not a natural endurance athlete. 3 hours is a long time.

Started the Netflix He-Man series. So far, so good.
