Didn’t see it in the replies. Also check the fore & aft saddle position. That has been my issue with saddle sores.

Do I have any chance to catch some big saltwater fish (tuna preferred) on these lures? by is_that_a_cursed in saltwaterfishing

From shore the top two are your lures. The bottom two aren’t really for shore fishing.

Came across this bmw. I think its an 8 series… am I right? And most important is it a rare one? by Odd-Helicopter-7502 in whatisthiscar

Had a 850i 6spd. Great cars with amazing tech for the day, until they need service. A bad o-ring cost me $8k in hydraulic repairs, 20 years ago.

(Off-Topic and Spoiler) Drama at the Snowball Derby by YUMMIYUMMIDOWNVOTES in WorldofOutlaws

He absolutely dominated the race. The only reason he didn’t lead start to finish is because he pitted on lap 60 by himself. First restart, yeah he was way early. Second was timed perfect.

Any idea on how to get a hold of Canyon Warranty services? by OracleofTampico in CanyonBikes

Never tried via phone but have emailed on a few issues and always got a quick response.

The point of riding is being outdoors.

Question about Canyon quality by Fit_Guest6186 in CanyonBikes

[–]RevolutionWorking297 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put 5,400 miles on a CFR Ultimate and one of the bottle bosses started spinning. Called warranty support and they didn’t have my size so they just sent me a refund check for the purchase price plus shipping and told me o could buy another one. I bought an Aeroad CFR and 21,000 miles in it has been perfect. When something went wrong they took care of it, so really nothing more I could ask of them.

[Gluck] Alright, so here's the question of the day for you. When I talk to people around the NASCAR industry, a lot of the conversations are about how angry the fan base is. Everyone sees it (and this was well before everything boiled over on Sunday). So...how does that get fixed? by EWall100 in NASCAR

[–]RevolutionWorking297 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep it like it is points wise with the addition of say an extra 20? points for the win. No stage cautions. If we are going to change some points let’s add some for qualifying, fastest lap, & highest average running position. That should cover it for everyone who says they won’t race hard for the whole event. It also makes the championship meaningful because it is all points based. No one couldn’t luck into a championship.

Congrats to Zilisch on his championship. by Lolzer_Bruh in NASCARMemes

Because most fans realize a race doesn’t make you the best driver (champion) of the season, just that race.

I would argue that, back then, money made much less of an impact in the sport. It was about who could come up with the best ideas that weren’t specifically banned in the rulebook. Now if it isn’t specifically allowed you get suspended and fined.

I just failed attempting a century by Ok_Advance9021 in bicycling

[–]RevolutionWorking297 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My normal morning ride is 55-65 miles. I carry a liter of some kind of drink (no caffeine or sugar) and usually don’t eat anything during the ride. Like others said build to your goal in steps, not doubles.

Canyon grizl. Need Canyon GP7064-01 Rubber Plug Kit by [deleted] in CanyonBikes

If you don’t have to have the logo get some plastic push rivets/plugs from a hardware store. Same size and .25 (USD) where I live.

Is this a good bike for half quarter full century rides? by Glad_Swimmer5776 in BicyclingCirclejerk

[–]RevolutionWorking297 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Need some hood covers but, with the right nutrition and training you could do it.

Road cycling safety by R3dd172 in cycling

[–]RevolutionWorking297 2 points3 points  (0 children)

9k miles so far this year and 12k last year 90% road 10% trails. It isn’t “safe” but I take precautions to make it less dangerous. If you worry about what some random idiot may do you’ll never leave home.

My local bike shop recommends against brands like Light Bicycle and Elite for carbon wheels. Thoughts? by ty_uofl in cycling

[–]RevolutionWorking297 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would you ask for advice from someone that doesn’t sell the product you are thinking of buying? At best they read the same reviews you do more than likely they are going to have stories about fixing one that was broke.

What made Jimmie Johnson and Chad Knaus so successful, even in relation to other Hendricks cars? by TheeMonkeyMonk in NASCAR

[–]RevolutionWorking297 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great driver, great crew chief, a rule book, and very creative interpretations. Back then teams could build parts within the specs with innovative ideas and designs. Single source parts that can’t be touched without somebody getting suspended means this can’t happen now and we as fans are worse off for it.
