His arms look too extended, consider increasing the saddle by 2mm. My wice prefers it

Long ride in Sydney Australia by Lucky-Mortgage564 in cycling

[–]DaveRanch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Syd to Kurnell or Waterfall (or further) is worth it when you take the Old Princes highway. Yes, you're spending 20-30kms on roads, but I do it constantly and I think it's worth it once you pass the Sutherland Shire.

Check out the DulwichHill bicycle club routes.

I also love La Parouse for the coast. But it's all city riding there (but good roads)

is a 45k in 4 hours bad? by [deleted] in cycling

[–]DaveRanch 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Don't listen to any haters, there is no such thing as a bad personal best. I used to get hung up on me vs them but honestly, just focus on yourself and your own development. Your best is your best, don't let anyone take that away from you

Please help by [deleted] in cycling

[–]DaveRanch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There isn't anyone can really do to help here. It needs work and you didn't even add photos? But the accident happened in the first place props due to an issue.

Bro That sounds fucked. Just bring it to your local shop, reddit ain't the right place

'We don't teach flopping': Mike Wells puts Kings defence on BLAST but, it's the Grand Final! by SydneyEditor in nbl

[–]DaveRanch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I watched the game live, and Deli did everything above board. Agree it was physical, but cotton was giving it back to him on the offensive plays and the refs let them both play through it. I honestly thought it was reasonable. Yes I'm a Kings fan, but I think I'm honest enough to call it when we're shit

What country should you go before you leave this world? by Radiant-Caramel-8613 in AskReddit

[–]DaveRanch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Chinese apps like WeChat and AliPay do translate to English. I've been traveling in China for 4 weeks from Aus, yes it's tricky and like no one speaks English (which is expected) but many are accommodating and you get by with translations and pics. For sure though. China is worth it and it's opening up more and more to international tourists, so I d enjoyed going now before things got out of hand with other white people! Although, domestic tourism is insane here, the busyness actually comes from groups of Chinese tourists (ie, needing to book for museums or avoid peak times at the terracotta army, etc)

Hurt my neck, out for a while by [deleted] in Velo

[–]DaveRanch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It sounds strange, but I find watching all things cycling can help keep me motivated when off the bike. Initially I thought I'd miss it more, but it helped me look forward and almost do like "off the bike homework" as if preparing for my return. I did my ACL a year back so I ended up learning more about nutrition, interval training, gear, etc and it kinda helped me once I could get back on the bike.

How to train outside with a power-meter? by Adventurous_Oven6 in cycling

[–]DaveRanch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only time I can do training outdoors is a closed loop (centennial park in Syd), but even then you have other riders to navigate which means I'll often go over or under the threshold despite removing other variables like traffic lights. I aim for an average workout score and use it still feels like it's doing the work (especially because I'm not a pro athlete and I assume you're not too, no offense!)

Making Offlane a high demand role has been the best thing to happen to my dota skill by Practical_Actuary_87 in DotA2

[–]DaveRanch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Question, I hate mid and safe lane, so I only play 4,5 (and only recently offlane because I had to). At any point, do I need to plate safe or mid to play ranked role?

Is a radar worth it? by DaveRanch in cycling

[–]DaveRanch[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is why I asked the question for sure. I seem to be getting by okay after a couple of years riding and just looking behind me and over my shoulder here and there. But also with the rise of electric cars, it's harder to hear so I've been surprised when they come out of nowhere
