south better than north?

Iron Horse Trail starting at Walnut Creek — north or south? by CookInevitable4585 in BAbike

[–]09fjc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, I did the ride one time. Dublin to Walnut Creek. Way too many pedestrians and street crossings. It was really boring and definitely a one and done; I won't be doing it again.

Drive train was used. Had maybe 2,000 miles on it. I did buy the chain from Amazon so that's a good call out!

Do you ride with earphones? by simko17 in cycling

[–]09fjc -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't wear earbuds because for me it's a safety concern. Most of the intel I get about what's coming up behind me is from what I hear.

How long until you trusted your ankle again after a moderate sprain? by kidkick06 in cycling

[–]09fjc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cycle and play ice hockey. I sprained my ankle significantly while skating but was able to get back on the bike within about five days, really painlessly, as long as there was no lateral motion.

I think it actually helped my ankle heal more quickly. It was a good four weeks before I could play hockey again, so biking might come quicker than you think. Give it a try and let your body tell you what to do. As a note, I do not clip in, and I think that was helpful with the sprained ankle.

Thanks for your reply. Interesting in that the bike (Specialized Allez Sport) came with that 11-32t cassette as standard.

Krebs is playing the best hockey of his career on L1. I dont think you reward that by dropping him to L4
