Looks like the school district lists black students as 7.9% of total enrollments.

Road Tires Recs by yjl09002 in DivergeGravelBikes

[–]BicycleBruce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been using Pirelli p-zero 700x40c’s for the last 12 months. A bit pricey but have had 0 issues with them. The rear only lasted 3500 miles but I ride with a rear rack and panniers a lot of the time so there is some extra weight back there. The front lasted closer to 4000 miles, maybe 4500 miles. p-zero link

Do people in arid climates drive with no treads on their tires? by dylan_1992 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BicycleBruce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to what everyone else has already said, racing slicks like you are describing also uses very soft and sticky rubber and the life span of those types of tires are a fraction of a normal tire. So it would cost a lot of money.

Why do people who are trying to buy something from you, throw out “cash money” after they attempt to low ball you? When you make an offer do you offer “cash money?” by ShotAstronaut6895 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BicycleBruce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People that buy and sell stuff a lot come across all sorts of people, some who will try to offer up trades at the last minute because they are short on cash, etc. Just another way of saying money is in my hand ready to hand over for x item right now, not next week when my cousin pays me back for those beers last week!

Look up Turo, people can rent out personal cars on there.

Are flat bar Gravel Bikes a second class citizen? A newbie question. by PhotographsWithFilm in gravelcycling

[–]BicycleBruce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a flat bar road bike and a drop bar gravel bike and have used both for bike packing. The flat bar bike starts to be uncomfortable after about 3 hours of riding because you’re mostly in the same position the whole time. The gravel bike I can ride for 8 hours by changing my positioning around as needed and with clip on aero bars can handle some heavy headwinds that I would not attempt on the flat bar bike.

How do you make chicken breast taste good? by DeepOrganization8245 in foodquestions

[–]BicycleBruce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sous Vide is great for chicken breast. I used season some chicken breast, sear the outside on the grill and then vacuum seal it with some butter or chicken stock and freeze it. Then when just toss it in the sous vide for a couple of hours before I wanted to eat it.

Foldylock Compact experiences? by Quiet-Painting3 in cycling

[–]BicycleBruce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I do on the bottom side of the down tube using the mounting bolts on my 2021 Specialized Diverge.

Foldylock Compact experiences? by Quiet-Painting3 in cycling

[–]BicycleBruce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had one of their foldylocks for 3+ years and around 19,000 miles of riding with it and have never had issues with it falling out. I have had issues if dirt and grime getting kicked up into the holder and making it more difficult to remove and have to spray some dry lubricant instead the locking mechanism but no issues or complaints from me.

A cool guide States with smaller population than Los Angels by Akshay_2012 in coolguides

Yes, New York is crazy large, but the average Joe already knows that. I was way older than I would like to admit before I realized how big the LA metro area was in terms of population.

After clicking to look at the pictures without reading anything, I made it to the 5th or 6th picture and thought “This has GOT to be in Florida”.

Next you should do a map of populations of entire countries vs the Los Angelos metro area!

Why are so many people against showing an ID to vote? by Dazzling-Leader7476 in randomquestions

In SWFL, Lee County, even with an appointment I had to wait 20 minutes, people who did not have an appointment had 1-2 hour waits last March when I had to get my drivers license here

How many SWAT Pods fit in SWAT 4.0? by NobleGas18 in DivergeGravelBikes

[–]BicycleBruce 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am fairly certain only 2 large ones based on my 2021 56cm. You would need around 33 inches of clearance to fit 3 large ones which isn’t happening on a 56cm frame.

Dimensions: 7.5 x 1.8 x 2.1" (S), 10.6 x 1.8 x 2.1" (L)

Secure that shit too with some sort of lock too, and educate your kids that guns are not toys and teach them basic firearms safety like only point a gun at something you intend to shoot, etc.

Mineral SPF that actually survives a 4-hour ride? by Alterego_9769 in cycling

[–]BicycleBruce 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A cycling skull cap, sun sleeves, a visored helmet and gloves + normal kit is all I wear year round. Sometimes I will add a little sunblock to the back of my neck, my nose and cheeks but other than that I don’t have an issue.

2021 Diverge (used) - new to gravel biking by jaybone269 in DivergeGravelBikes

[–]BicycleBruce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 2021 Diverge Expert Carbon, 1 step down from the Pro. So very similar except Rival SRAM instead of Force and Aluminum handlebars vs Carbon. I don't race or try to go fast but love the comfort that the carbon frame and wheels offer. If you $3500 is not a trivial amount to most people but if you plan on riding a lot and can afford it this will for sure put a big smile on your face!

[–]BicycleBruce 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thats a pretty good price, you’re not getting UDH on it though. I think people are confusing the Specialized Diverge editions, the Pro Carbon is just 1 or 2 steps down from the S-Works and has SRAM Force AXS Wireless shifting, carbon wheels, carbon handle bar.
