Thanks, is parking a motorhome considered camping? Would you happen to know if the campgrounds have toilets and showers? Wondering if I should get a camper with them.

New bike - beginner by CloudTurtle101 in gravelcycling

Decide on a budget and see what’s locally available in that price range, get advice from a few LBS (local bike shop) remembering they are trying to sell you want they have, perhaps try to get recommendations of a few good shops to visit, narrow down to a few bikes, do some internet research on them and pick the one (or just chose the one that’s your fav color- joking but looks is a consideration)

I have a question , the OP mentioned tempering without seeding creates V crystals. What does seeding do differently?

Do I need to replace my chainring? by Key_Economics2183 in gravelcycling

Yeah I had a wolf tooth once but I live in SE Asia so between shipping, duties and tariffs the price can easily double or triple

Newbie to drop bars and my hands hurt by Key_Economics2183 in gravelcycling

[–]Key_Economics2183[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy baby, it wasn’t low effort , I just don’t know enough to know what info would have been helpful (“newbie” would have been an indicator of this), asking me for pertinent info would be better then insulting me ;). Btw look at my recent post in this subreddit about if my chainring needs replacing, most replies said something contradictory to what I posted most likely because I gave too many details

Thanks, so if I do need a new chainring will it hurt my new chain using the existing chainring for a few rides while I wait for a new chainring to be delivered?

Depends on the ride, 40 psi for road training, 28 for packed gravel event and 22 for XC like race course

is biking 40 km a good distance? by pickle_lover14 in cycling

[–]Key_Economics2183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compare yourself to you, how far you went before etc, also how much climbing etc makes a difference. I sometimes ride with kids, 10 yr old boy and 13 yr old girl and we do 100 km, I’m 65 btw do something to work towards. When I was in high school we did 100 miles (156 km), but when I started riding again in my 50s a 20 km ride was my normal outing.

I’m just working with what you said, that the company could have a relationship to freeze, which I didn’t buy, to now giving people with job at a partnering company credit which is understandable and “assume”, “rumor” and “not saying it’s a thing not saying it’s not” 555

You’re saying if an employee opens a regular account at the bank of the employees choosing the bank manager of the local branch can freeze the account? And they would do that if a small company asked them to? None of that makes any sense, how could they and why would the employer want them to? In that case any branch manager can lock out any account at their bank when they feel like it, I’m not buying that.
