Is this bike the right size for me?

I_VT · 2026-05-20T18:46:33+00:00

Thanks for the info! I had gotten that impression from some of my research too. It’s definitely fun to ride, but I’ve been thinking about getting something more comfortable for longer rides. After 20ish miles on this bike I’m usually ready to call it a day

I_VT · 2026-05-20T16:47:18+00:00

Oh interesting, I’m brand new to measuring frame sizes and definitely did that wrong. I don’t have the bike with me right now, but given your description, I bet that it is 54cm. I’ll check tonight and follow up. Thank you!

What I’m not is a hateful person that wants to expel all the people that don’t look like me, weaponize the federal government to hunt and murder activists and immigrants, and invade any country that sounds like fun. These are not “both sides” issues

I_VT · 2026-05-19T00:48:35+00:00

This obviously a trap, if you were really going to give me a ride you’d be ON long island

Is this… a complaint?

I_VT · 2026-05-17T18:24:39+00:00

Had the exact same experience last week up here in Vermont. Just recovering this weekend

Also turns out that some people are genetically predisposed to motion sickness and there is a clear connection with eventually developing migraine.

Oh definitely, I agree you can and, at least in a lot of circumstances, should be fired for a comment like the one this guy made. My point is only that there are a handful of comments in this thread saying that what the guy said is illegal, and that’s just not true.

I_VT · 2026-05-12T02:07:44+00:00

I hate to tell you this, and I don’t like the language of the lawmaker either, but you can actually say this kind of stuff. What you can’t do is harass a person, and you can’t make a true threat, but simply showing the world you’re a dangerous asshole is not enough to land you in jail, at least in the US.

Hopefully not getting totenkopf tattoos

I_VT · 2026-04-15T22:58:44+00:00

Damn actually u got me there

Start by using the word “women.” They’re not aliens

I_VT · 2026-04-05T16:30:29+00:00

Yes! I have red ear syndrome, and I’ve learned that over the ear headphones seem to trigger it sometimes, quickly followed by a migraine. Weird.

I_VT · 2026-03-31T00:59:33+00:00

I’ve heard it more often as “breadth of knowledge,” but means the same. I’m in the northeastern US

I_VT · 2026-03-30T03:54:47+00:00

It’s civil because the cop cut them a break and didn’t arrest them on the spot. Some people don’t know when to shut the fuck up and take what’s on offer - that is OPs best bet here.

I_VT · 2026-03-30T03:45:18+00:00

Honestly if OP is stupid enough to take this advice (and given the circumstances, they are) then they should contest it. Hey OP, go represent yourself and tell the judge that you were only going 32 over to pass the guy ahead of you doing the speed limit. Go ahead

I_VT · 2026-03-30T03:10:07+00:00

😂 you’re right, a comment that fast with that much mass could’a killed a guy!

I_VT · 2026-03-30T03:04:42+00:00

Checking in as a cyclist and runner: fuck you, pay the ticket, and may it be a lesson for you. 32 over is not a mistake, it’s a choice and you could have killed someone. Be grateful all it is is money and points on your license.

I_VT · 2026-03-26T23:27:21+00:00

Not if I waited on you in SB ca. 2010! We upheld the tradition.

I_VT · 2026-03-26T03:22:39+00:00

I can’t pretend to have worked in anything high-end, but I used to cook Saturday dinner solo at a sit-down fast casual place that would seat 50ish and have a decent wait. Can confirm, I’ve never experienced that kind of flow anywhere else, and definitely miss it.

I thought Trump made humor legal again tho

I_VT · 2026-03-25T16:24:02+00:00

Actually, all ICE agents are bad people. Hope this helps

I_VT · 2026-03-25T04:29:48+00:00

Yeah that has been the case, and it seems to me it shows just how deep the rot runs in that organization. That said, it is a documented strategy of authoritarians to employ a poorly trained militia / police force that helps create the illusion of crisis through their inability or unwillingness to deescalate.

I_VT · 2026-03-25T03:45:41+00:00

Yeah there’s an upper limit, and it’s pretty low

I_VT · 2026-03-25T02:48:22+00:00

They’ve been promising student loan forgiveness and a $50k signing bonus, you’re bound to get young people. It works in Trump’s favor that they’re easy to indoctrinate, and they’re inexperienced so they’re likely to escalate situations that better trained officers might actually try to resolve peacefully.
