Yay for the milestone! That’s great. I think keeping the momentum while it’s still warm out in the northern hemisphere is important. While I plan to try winter biking this year, I’m an exception to the norm.

I will also say..think about diversity when building this community. Cycling in the U.S. is very male dominated and also mostly white.

Follow up: here’s an example. I’m a woman, urban commuter and I’ve gotten into cycling cameras for safety to ensure any street harassment or cars following me will be FILMED. I occasionally have to breeze through neighborhoods and put on my “tough” look. I’d love to share experiences like this with women, but there are so few IRL and seemingly few on here.

I’ve also found myself jotting down license plate numbers while on rides for this reason…no one talks about this.

If your an experienced staff or senior with hedge- fund experience and want to move to Dallas, DM me to discuss discretely. Honestly great team. Turnover has been low for last 18 months at 10%. Compared to 40-50% in other places. Crazy hours feb-apr, 40 apr-jul, 45 in Aug, maybe 50-60 that last week of aug/ early sept. <40 post 9/15. We have a need at the senior level to fill a gap. Seniors help is needed everywhere so if your interested, come cash in your chips!

I'm going to Machu Picchu next month with my brother and hiking the Inca trail. Any recommendations on what I absolutely need to bring for the hike? Anyone who hiked the Inca trail take like a battery pack or something with them for their camera?

Also, I'm considering bringing my drone even tho I know I can't take it into any of the sacred places like Machu picchu. I also have to register it with customs when I get into the country. Is it still worth taking? I can use it around Cusco and Lima

Hi everyone,
So I had my NIPT and NT scans last week and I’ve been getting pieces of the results back from my doctor in the patient portal. All seems okay but I’m a bit confused. Does anyone know if FirstScreen is the same thing as NIPT? I was under the impression that NIPT was in 90th percent of certainty for Down syndrome but the result we got, labeled FirstScreen indicate 83% certainty so I’m confused if there are more results coming? I messaged the doctor but haven’t heard back yet.

How do you try new bikes? A car you can jump in, move the seat and drive around. A bike needs a fit(something for another post), time and it’s impossible to ride all brands to see what “feels” best. Love my local bike shop, but they only sell Trek and are obviously biased.
