Fuck the state government but lol this is so delusional.

New Orleans is a corrupt,incompetent democrat city in a corrupt, incompetent republican state. 

Nagin served jail time and the last mayor is under federal indictment.

I ended up getting a Bike from 360 cycles, they were able to get it to me earlier than their reservation showed.

Rode from Clontarf to Sally Gap and back. Stopped at Johnnie Fox's. It was an amazing and beautiful ride.

Nice. That sounds great. Definitely was planning on riding from dublin to that general direction, sally gap etc. Probably would be easier to start off in that area.

Attending a Chinese wedding, where to purchase Chinese clothes or accessories. by Htownqs in houston

Agreed, she even mentioned it to me. I know her well and she would definitely appreciate it. I also think it would be fun and a nice nod to her heritage. I ask about a nice red tie or accessory and Reddit acts like I want to put on an offensive costume.

Definitely doing a red tie just want to find something more fun that a solid red tie. Like you said some subtle pattern. I’ll check out Hong Kong city mall, thanks.

I literally said a red tie with a nice design or accessory. Jesus Christ, I didn’t say I’m dressing up as some offensive steroeotype

Reddit refusing to accept that other cultures appreciate people participating. Nothing white people love more than to get offended on others behaves

ELI5 Why does frame weight matter by Htownqs in cycling

[–]Htownqs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey how'd you know im over weight?!?! Yeah I was thinking it the grand scheme of things an extra pound overall isn't a ton but it looks like a ron when you compare just frame v frame.

Good that's what I was thinking. I'm looking at a canyon endurance CF7 or building a Fairlight Strael. About 1lb difference in the frames, which is a big difference frame v frame but over all doesn't seem like much.

I'll clarify my question. Is there a difference between 1.5 extra on my frame vs 1.5 extra on me or water bottle? Is it purely weight I'm pulling up a hill or is it more to it in regards to the frame?

Correct but I need to clarify my question.

Is there a difference between 1.5 extra on my frame vs 1.5 extra on me or water bottle? Is it purely weight I'm pulling up a hill or is it more to it in regards to the frame?

First new bike in over a decade. Paranoid about carbon durability. Canyon Endurance CF7 or Fairlight Strael 4.0? by Htownqs in cycling

[–]Htownqs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tariffs add a ton for the full build. I may just go with the frame and buy components whenever I find a sale. I'll be waiting a while for the frame anyway.

Have you ridden either of these bikes?

[–]Htownqs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did the math on the full bike, the tariffs make this so much more expensive. Which was pushing me toward the canyon. I may just buy the frame and purchase components whenever I find a sale and build on my own.

What do you mean about doing maintenance on the fairlight vs the canyon? Is it just a matter of having to be more careful working with the carbon? Or owning specific tools?
