1c is a huge group. Includes everyone over 50. A lot of folks are sitting at their computers waiting for 1c to open...Getting an appointment is going to be all about clicking refresh....refresh...refresh.

Indeed it is going to be a lot larger of a group, I am 39 so getting in the queue now will hopefully pay off given my autoimmune issues.

I've been 29 for 26 years now. Skipped right passed 39.

I've seen in the news that volunteering for a minimum of 4 hours (they usually want 8) moves you to the front of the line.
Volunteering may have its' own risks as well.

I just got my first Moderna yesterday at Anaheim Convention Center. Very smooth process. Lots of walking, but virtually no waiting.

I got my first jab yesterday was well. Cal state L.A drive thru.

I almost feel bad. I was offered the Johnson & Johnson vaccination this morning at the CVS on my route. Someone had canceled their appointment. I turned it down but offered it to a long-time customer that I knew had been desperately waiting for one. She was very grateful.

That was a good thing you did.

Must have been this forums day yesterday as I joined the Moderna group. Wish it had been the J & J and I'd be done. Slightly sore arm riding up B* last night, but enjoyed the 55 degree weather in spite of the wind. Felt like I "earned" my In-N-Out burger. YUM!

What a dick!

OK, that's one of the cooler things I've read on here in a long while. Good on ya!

It was the beginning of a you tube video on something bicycle related...I forgot what it was and was meaning to ask, but I forgot that too...until now.

It means that you are being spied upon. Nothing to be alarmed about, carry on.

We've been getting spam calls with Russian names attached to the caller's number. Only in America.

Finally! I’ve been consistently working 5am to 5pm lately which hasn’t lent many opportunities for quick after work rides at Oaks.

And no, riding somewhere in the Santa Ana’s in the evenings after a 12 hour day with a 5 year old and 3 year old is not an option.

I’ll meet you next Saturday at midnight anywhere within an hour of your house to make it work.

While it’s a bit wet this morning and I am about to coach some little league I do get out on weekends during the daylight, and soon weekdays as well. Besides, I still go to bed fairly early on weekends to stay on track. Not everyone is a wolf of the night like you.

Nice remembrance from his wife noting he passed doing what he loved, where he loved. Not a bad way to go.

Was talking to my insurance agent yesterday and asked about bike coverage. He says it's covered unless it has a motor. That eBikes need a separate type of coverage for motorized vehicles, and are not covered by home insurance.

Apparently there have been quite a few surprised owners lately.

Even insurance agents don't consider them bicycles. I got a chuckle out of that.

I agree, but the daytime sacrifice is for a good cause.

So even people that don’t know sh!t about bikes are smart enough to know the difference.

I'm here to report that the wind chill was 27 when I got up. It's going to be a cold roll.

Yes, the classic blow after the snow is here. It's what get's the storm to pass by. By warmth is coming!

probably that any exclusion is a good exclusion when the agency is writing checks
