Rode it on the trainer for 55 mins until I got a flat tire. I didn't even realized flat tires were a thing on a trainer 
What did you do to your Cruzbike today?

Just got done with my first ride outside in two months, oh god is that the sun?
49 Miles with 2 different groups, yes I totally split off the first group a few mile before finishing because I spotted another group of friend heading the other way at the beginning of their ride. The pace was moderate but honestly nothing compared to my normal pace but I took the opportunity to just hang out and chat with all my friends. Hardest thing to do is pull my bottles from the cage behind my head and manipulate the bottle to drink. I've never been good at riding with only my right hand and right now in its weakened state it's even harder. I can't even muster up 20% of the grip strength needed to use my right hand to pull the bottle so that's out of the question for at least another week. It literally felt like I could ride all day today with zero signs of fatigue or discomfort. I really think the novelty of being outside for the first time in so long with friends played a huge part in my enjoyment of the todays ride. Maybe the month before the 24hr I should look myself inside on the trainer so when I'm finally released outside for race day I'll be all stoked to be outside riding in circles for 24hrs. I happened to spot a Blue Bacchetta just like the one Rob just used on RAMM going the opposite direction as me. I wanted to turn around and act like the Cruzbike ambassador I should be but I had just joined my second group of friends so I opted not to

Rode it to the Donut shop for the first time in awhile and it was delicious. The several KOMs and PRs I collected on the way were just an added bonus.

My Vittoria Open Pave have great long strips of writing on them. To which part of the strip must I align the valve?
You've got me started now.

Got up at 2:30am to commute to work on it. 90 mins of darkness and severe head winds. Surprisingly I was about 2 mins slower then my DFs best time to work. I will note that the wind varies from bad to severe to why does god hate me so. I'll have to ride the V to work more to collect and average amount the different wind conditions.

Lee which R in Panracer?Nope, get ride of the valve nut and the valve needs to be centred with the writing so the 'R' of 'PANARACER' it is.
The nut should stay but be loose, so you can pump up a flat tyre without the outlet of the valve stem being blocked against the outer side of the tube!

The Nut is required when doing tubeless unless you like wearing sealant
The funny part of this is that it is silly BUT once you get use to finding the value using the LOGO it suddenly becomes really really annoying when they aren't lined up. When you are as fast as Jason it really doesn't matter. The rest of use need to look fast when we are standing still to maintain the illusion

I'm glad my sarcasm isn't lost among the group
I will always try to fight conformity which is how I ended up here in the first place

The Nut is the person riding the bike.
On my Mavic wheels there is a logo on the rim, opposite the valve hole. Easy to find the valve.
LOL, forgot there are two R's. The last one.
