Cycling communities were one of my favourite parts of reddit, and I’ve been unable to find any equivalents on here so I decided to start this community. Feel free to post and comment about anything related to cycling! I’d love for this place to continue in the spirit of /r/xbiking, not necessarily content-wise but definitely attitude-wise. We’re all cyclists, and at the end of the day the only criteria for being a part of this community is riding a bicycle (and enjoying it!)

Please comment any suggestions you have for this space, or simply say hi and let us know what you like to do on your bike!

    Cool cool, yeah I dig it. Cycling can dip into geeking out on gear, which can be alright, but leads to consumerism, which can lead to snobbery. I think most bike snobs are well intentioned though, or are rather harmless in any case.

    I definitely went down the rabbit hole when putting my bike together (and bikepacking requires a whole extra gear round) and was super focused on performance for a while, but these days just cruise. Lots of phases in one’s cycling journey!
