Thursday Nights at Wheeler Airport
We've recently started up a Thursday Night Ride at the Wheeler Airport just northwest of downtown KC. It's a 4.3 mile loop around the limited access road that surrounds the airport. It's popular due to the lack of traffic, the relatively flat course, and the fact that you're never more than 2 miles from you car (in case things go south one way or another).
If you're into training, it's a good location to gauge progress over time, and between rides.
If you want to join us, we meet at 5:30pm every Thursday night at the Wheeler Airport, just off the Broadway Bridge, north of downtown KC. Last week we rode for an hour or so, at a 18-22mph pace.
There are two main parking lots to set off from, and we'll make it a habit to meet near Hanger 3.
Today, however, on only our second go around, it's raining steady and may not lighten up by tonight.

Verizon Clearly Doesn't Know Me
Lately it seems that every time I reboot my Blackberry 9360 Tour (which I'm quite fond of, incidentally), there's another strange new app loaded onto it. At first, I thought it was odd... Slacker Radio was there, bright and shiny on my home screen. "Odd" I thought to myself, "I don't remember getting that... must have missed a clause in some EULA somewhere". Then Bing showed up. Then Skype.
Ok. Something is up.
Then today, NFL Mobile showed up.
Seriously. Verizon. You clearly don't know me. It's obvious at this point that you have no idea who I am.
Let me be absolutely clear on this. I couldn't possibly care less about the NFL.
I did a quick Google (!Bing) search on line, and found this: Free NFL Mobile App for Blackberry Now Available. Thoughts and solutions to this intrusive (though unavoidable at the moment) practice are in the comments.
In short, you can...
Hope that helps...

In short, you can...
- Delete the service, though it will probably show up again when you resend your service book.
- Simply hide the icons, or put them all in a single folder and hide the folder.
- Install the app, and then delete it. Until you install it, the delete option is unavailable.
Hope that helps...
