Good luck--hope you gals find each other on the trail. I will never forget yelling "BETA!" when a cyclist in a Google jersey passed me going in the opposite direction on the lakefront path, and hearing, "yeah?" yelled back! It was her! What fun to find each other.

I pretty much just ride to and from work. I have a pale blue Kona Dew with a gray pannier on the left. My helmet is pink and I wear a screaming yellow jacket or vest.
Sometimes I ride on the Burke.

It starts out with zig-zaggy clear lines in the middle or slightly to the outsides, that get brighter and brighter, and then from the outside it turns black and the blackness, which makes it like a round tunnel, closes in and in (but never completely closes) and then in 20 minutes, vanishes like nothing ever happened.
I've never had a migraine, either.
I love caffeine- and I only get the weird visual disturbance like once a year.
I did have an eye twitch for two weeks after trying MDX for the first time...

If I don't drink caffeine i fall over and die.

Double ditto. I quite smoking, I refuse to give up caffeine :rolleyes: :p

OMG, I think I have to give it up. Certain problems in the, erm, lower regions seemed to point to a certain brand of coffee. So, I've gone off it and haven't been drinking a cup of any brand (even the non-offending ones) every morning. I noticed last week that I was getting a racing heart. Had a cup today for the first time in since Monday. Racing heart is back today. Could it be the position of my chair at work? The days I work at home I'm not drinking coffee and don't have the problem.
Nooooooooo! Decaf is such a pain because my closest LCS doesn't keep decaf ready to go.
OK, changing my chair to see if I'm slumping unconsciously.

snapdragen "I refuse to give up caffeine :rolleyes: :p"
where is the jersey that says "Death before decaffe" ;) :rolleyes: Yes, I know I should give it up.

And now for the Engrish connection...

TL - you are right - that hoodie is the best! (sorry - probably cross-posting here!)
-
Pretty sure cross-posting is legit in the Thread Drift thread. It comes in a t-shirt and a sticker too. :D

Crossposting is not just legit, it's required in thread drift. How is everyone today?

Trying to stay away from the caffeine so I bought a diet Sprite. Pee-uwwww! Sheesh, it's sweet.
I'm sure one of those "poo" signs on engrish would fit the situation. Yuck.

That stuff is puke-a-trocious. Try saying that in Engrish!
If I don't drink caffeine, I just lie there and die. For me, it's all about the timing. I'm working three night shifts this week :mad: one of them a 24 hour, well, really, two of them were 24s...anyway...hey, did you ever notice how Jack Bauer almost NEVER drinks coffee? I saw him drink a cup once at the end of season two or three...drifting within the thread drift thread...so if I don't drink coffee at about 6:30AM, I get a horrendous headache later in the day. But if I drink it much after 7 AM, then I can't sleep when I get home around 11AM...I suck at sleeping, anyway. What were we talking about? :o
PS, since I've been sober >21 years, can I get one of those hoodies with a red line through the "and alcohol" part?!?
