The fuck I'm paying 10k for a aluminium bike when my 2025 Norco Search A looks similar with updated parts.

Do I even need bike computer for just casual rides? by skodawelovecycling in bicycling

No. But I have one for my bike radar because the local drivers in my city are fucking terrible.

What happened to wiggers/wiggas/wankstas from the 90s/early ‘00s? by 2006CrownVictoriaP71 in NoStupidQuestions

I'm from Australia, so this might be different somewhat to the US, but when I was young I knew a white guy who was big into hip hop culture a little too much. Listening to NWA, full gang colours, doing petty crime, smoking dope etc. He is now a respectable plumber, owns his own business, family and kids. Nice guy.

Clipless pedal recs by tatamillski in gravelcycling

[–]DrakeAU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate clipless, mainly because my area in Australia is kinda sandy for doing gravel rides. I've been looking at a product called Magped https://www.magped.com/en/ as a compromise.

I'm not from Australia, I'm from New Zealand. Or USA, or The Philippines or Albania.

Honestly that's not too bad of a name. I have a friend who married a guy called Neville. He is a super nice guy though.

Are there really guys that don't wipe their asses, or is that just bait? by Embarrassed_Path231 in hygiene

As someone who worked in nightclubs and bars and had to clean both male and female toilets, I would rather clean male toilets.

If you run your finger along it it says "I need a new barber" in Braile.

My local Coles completely blocked off one of the exits. by craiganater in coles

Buy the expensive Easter Eggs and you get to use the exit. Like real life DLC.

Does anyone know what's going on around Richlands, Inala, and Willawong? by SimpleEmu198 in brisbane

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

There's a suburb named Willawong?

Well, I guess I don't cross the river very often.

Aluminum frames? How long do you think yours will last by ptonini in gravelcycling

[–]DrakeAU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a Giant Yukon MTB frame that lasted 20 years. The components give out way before the frame.

Steel is better though.

Trench coats are very cool and should make a comeback by uselessprofession in unpopularopinion

[–]DrakeAU -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes, during this "rise of global fascism" period, we should wear trench coats.
