What if your life is constantly slumping in well-being?

I want this game.

Loooool oh boy

Undoubtedly it is in fact that lizard brain response. We like to think we’re above that but we’re barely better than the rest of the animals sometimes.

Fantastic 👍

What a chump.

You don’t sound shitty to your own eyes, but I’d wager others take it different. It reads as dismissive and combative.

People do it because no outcome is a lock; you can prepare all you want but you may get a flat.

And see? You dismissed me out of hand. Be kind. You don’t even know what kind of riding I’m doing, how long, where, or with what kind of child seat. I ride a lot in places that one could be commuting, to many different businesses/parks. The technical difference in my purpose makes little difference in how my bike physically interacts with roads/sidewalks.

Be cool man, if bikers in a bike forum can’t at least be chill we have NO chance against the cars.

Cool study, ty

I’m glad your experience has been idyllic, but oftentimes things happen to people. Not unreasonable to carry an item the size of a banana to get out of a jam. Something I have used 4 times over the last 4 years riding in an urban setting. Really saved my butt out riding with my kid. Why sound so shitty on people? Different people experience different things.

Yoooo that’s hardcore 👏

That is a really good article. Glad to have read it, thanks for sharing.

Grounded???

Big time same for me

Yes. And our fan base still finds ways to defend him. Wish he’d just give it up, pretty embarrassing.

💗💗 have a 1x12 51 on my other bike, but that’s trail oriented. Looking at eBay 1x11 50 for the trekking bike but I am not feeling pressed.

👏

Yep

It’s definitely iffy. Going to try and get one more. Have heavy 1 finger gloves and decent cold sleep gear. Fingers crossed I can make it work.

Agree. We found a place that is always open to camp. I agree with trying the stealth and the rail trail, have to be flexible sometimes. Hope you get an experience that satisfies you. 🙏

Ty definitely not gonna see that exact bike out there anywhere else 😎 total amalgamation bike
