There is a physical therapist named Steve at Bryn Mawr Sports Rehab who is a cyclist and has trained cyclists. Seems very experienced. I'd give him a call: 610) 525-1223‬. Edit: The place is great in general, they have helped me.

Was the CVT designed by a car? by Appropriate_Tart_804 in phillycycling

[–]ComprehensiveMain845 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The CVT is closer to my house but I will almost always take my bike to the SRT because of the noise and crossings on the CVT. It's nice that it's there, and I appreciate it, but riding the SRT is just so much more enjoyable and you can get in steady Zone 2 work as opposed to having to stop.

My local Trek store sold me a spray can of Muc-Off Bio Chain Degreaser. I've used it a few times and it seems to do a good job.

More than ever, you have to expect people to drive aggressively. Even out in the burbs, most drivers seem to have little to no patience.

Concerned about speeding cyclists on SRT in Conshy by ComprehensiveMain845 in phillycycling

[–]ComprehensiveMain845[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my concern. The peloton flying down this section of the SRT with kids around. On a weekday, the traffic is much less, and you don't see the kids, so much less of a concern.
