Yeah, exactly what I said. It's just looking for trends and patterns then creating phrases around them. It's then easily manipulated by editing your activity as per my screenshot above, it's far from intelligent. Whoop has been doing this for years.
Ahhh, yeah just re-read your original. Ooops. Totally agree through - they're 'fake AI' as all it's doing is using pre-canned messages with data filled in. Easily done and really not AI, just using the buzzword. Zero intelligence with it - as proved!
Looking for a reasonably priced pair of photochromic glasses to get my Mrs. She has the standard Oakley Sutro but they look a bit big on her. She's had kids ones in the past but they look a bit daft too
Been riding at 5:30am and its still pretty dark this time of year and she struggles with her eyes watering. Any recommendations? I don't want to spend Oakley money as come December it'll be light at that time in the morning.
Colour wise she likes pink (obvs), her bike is a purply / dark blue and she loves the Bianchi green type colours.
Something like this maybe but they look big.

They do look big... But always hard to tell size and how glasses 'sit' on someones face. Some just look weird -
take Si from GCN. He's got a fairly narrow/long face so the big shades sit massive on him.
I've got a wide/fat head and nearly always worn Jawbreakers (have to wear a L/XL helmet - need 62cm+). Did use Radars for a while but found with them (& many other glasses) as they have to stretch they're tight wearing for a long period of time, but also push frame edges into my peripheral. The Jawbreaker don't - I have better visibility behind with them than anything else I've tried when doing a shoulder check. But put jawbreakers on my other half (normal size head, maybe towards Small) they are massive and look it on her!
Airports with lots of glasses in their duty free bits are a good place to try on a bunch (Bristol is good, don't recall many in Birminghams) or somewhere with various ranges. Some snow sports places have lots of brands rather than 1 or 2 like cycling places.
Also those Magicshine... You say about Oakley money, they're not far off it! Got my other half some
Oakley Caveat back in April (from oakleys website) for £73. Was some voucher code thing for 50% off, might have been a Strava Challenge or such?! I've paid £90 for Jawbreakers before, so there are deals to be had.
On an unrelated note, does anyone here find that their legs just permanently ache. Always in the morning. I have noticed this for quite a while not but just largely ignored it but the week in Mallorca and coming home has really brought home how annoying it is.
Pretty much ache every day, but I've become accustomed to it. Only really 'sore' a day or two after riding (2nd day after a bigger ride is more debilitating than the immediate day after?! DOMS?).
My bigger/longer rides do tend to be morning affairs, where I'll do a 'normal' afternoon of stuff afterwards which probably stops muscles getting seized up and counts as stretching out... The evening (usually Zwift) ones generally only an hour, or couple of hours max (like last night 40 mins ladder race then 50 mins group ride). I try not to ride later than 9pm and when generally sleeping 11/12pm still gives a couple of hours 'downtime'. My legs don't feel more than tired the day after - I don't 'leg twitch' when dropping off to sleep but did quite a bit when starting out (along with cramping more) maybe tabbed drinks (salts) help alleviate that. I'll always eat before my evening rides - so generally don't take/need any 'energy' foods/drinks for riding. I find sleep is interrupted/delayed enough just from riding itself without caffeine also in the mix. If I don't feel like I've slept well, invariably my legs will ache more... I'll always be snacking after riding into the evening which definitely helps my recovery. Not that sugary, more savoury (nuts, dried fruits, salty pretzels, sometimes a bowl of granola type museli/cereal). If I've not eaten after riding (or not had a protein shake) I do find my legs very slow the next morning (commute) as I don't do much breakfast with time to digest before it. I hate that 'dead legs' feeling which just won't go, I'd rather them sore/tender!
I definitely don't do enough/much stretching, generally only doing it when I feel tight and like I need it. Should do as part of a healthy recovery routine as certainly helps with that 'dead legs' feeling, or from cramping up.
