I was going to say, your routine looked a lot like mine when I trained for Triathlon. M: 45 min swim, 60 min run T: 90-120 min bike + 2 mile brick run w: 45 min swim, 60 min run th: 90-120 min bike + 2 mile brick run F: off S: 3-4 hour bike + 2 mile brick run S: 90 min swim, 1 hour run Now I...

Our basement is completely unfinished. We painted the walls with a white, waterproof paint which makes it feel a lot less dark and gloomy and more inviting. I started epoxying the floor but never finished. The idea was to do one half then move everything so I could do the other half. If I had to...

I was riding in Greenville last week with my wife for our end of the season trip. First time to the area and we really enjoyed it. Lots of rolling hills (similar to what we have west of Madison, but longer) and several sustained climbs. The Hincapie Grand Fondo was on Saturday and while we did...

I have the "old" 5x Sapphire which I got free from a conference I attended. When I first got it, it looked huge on my wrist, and was noticeably heavier then the 920xt I would wear while running. I got used to the weight and size after a couple of days, and it does not flop around on my wrist...

It was hot and humid up here in Wisconsin last weekend as well, plus a forecast of severe thunderstorms. 24 hours out, they said they would arrive at 2pm, they came at 2:15pm, so not bad on the forecast, but they lasted all of 15 minutes!. I did finally get out mountain biking for the first time...

After close to 3 year hiatus I am getting back into flying. I used Foreflight in the past, but like others, I wanted to see what's changed in the last 3 years. I looked around and decided to give FlyQ a try since it had the already assembled Stratux (Merlin) and a year of FlyQ for $250 shipped...

Full Disclosure: I currently work for TrainerRoad, but I'm a developer, not in marketing, so what follows are just my personal opinions. I find training indoors to be a more efficient use of my time, but would much rather ride outside over the summer. But what usually happens is my fitness...

I ride a lot indoors, and my training software sends "mile" thru to Strava, so I apologize for that, not trying to cheat on the leader-boards ;) I would be interested in a remote century ride (where we all try to do 100 miles on a given day) Just getting back into flying after about 3 years. I...

First I'd heard of Sky King. I would like to see a reboot of that, provided they don't exclusively use drones.

The weather in Wisconsin has not been the greatest this spring, and I'm a fair weather rider as it is. So I've only been out once for 52 miles. But I do a bunch of indoor biking on a trainer year round, so aside from riding hills, I'm in good shape :) When I did a bike challenge at work and was...

Just for my own learning, I decided to look at KSKF. AirNav has it listed as a public use airport toward the top of the page, but all the way at the bottom under the remarks it says " FLT PLAN RQRD FOR ALL CIVILIAN FLTS OPERATING INTO/OUT OF KELLY FIELD." The A/FD lists it as CIV/MIL at the...

I agree with some of the other posters on looking to move to Windows 7 :) You may want to investigate using a scheduled task. It's been awhile since I've set one up in Windows XP so I don't remember all of the options. I'll describe what I'd do for a win7/8 machine and you can give it a try...

25-30 minutes Sent from my RM-820_nam_att_100 using Board Express

Awesome, I'm a non-smoker, under 50 and can run a 6 minute mile. Safe for at least another 14.5 years :) Sent from my RM-820_nam_att_100 using Board Express

First thing I thought was how much liability insurance will they have to carry? Second thought was, how many people are going to see if they can jam/override the GPS signal for fun, or illegal profit. Sent from my RM-820_nam_att_100 using Board Express

Just got an email from FlyQ advertising a black Friday sale. 2yr, full IFR for $99. I tried the trial (on the ground) after Oshkosh and didn't see enough to make me switch from Foreflight. This price is tempting though, and opens up the door for multiple ADS-B receiver options. Anyone have...

I've been using Windows 8 and now 8.1 since preview for both, on laptops and desktops and have no issues working with the Metro Start Screen. I have downloaded 0 metro apps on my desktop and laptop because I don't use machines like a tablet. On my "tablet", a Surface, I have a few apps, but use...

Thanks to everyone for all the great information. I'll be sure to post a follow-up after I get back next week.

I'm flying my wife and myself down to Charlotte next week for PASS Summit (http://www.sqlpass.org/summit/2013/Home.aspx). DA40/G1000 out of KMSN. Little long to do it non-stop so I was going to stop somewhere halfway and KOVO sounds as good as anything (still need to call and double check online...

My instructor received his instruction from Bill Kershner and we are using his book http://www.amazon.com/Aerobatic-Manual-87-Rev-90-William-Kershner/dp/0813800633 for training. The book lists snap rolls as one of the three basic maneuvers along with Aileron Rolls and Loops so they get...
