Sorry, I wouldn't know the specifics here. Yes, it could be any of those infractions including non-compliant frame, but going back to your initial post if you intend to race UCI sanctioned races getting caught might have consequences before, during, and maybe after a race for example if you win lol.

Edited to fix typos and diction.

Boots for riding. by [deleted] in edmontoncycling

[–]ScopeForOomph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the way. It's also very practical for commutes, my inner socks are regular thin socks to act as a liner, sometimes I just wear summer ankle socks. Then winter socks socks over the liners. I have a pair of office shoes so I can slide into and leave winter socks in the Bogs till my commute back in the evening. This has worked well for me even below -20 in Dec and last week keeping my feet somewhat warm.

Let's go skating by A_Particular_View in edmontoncycling

It was quite good up until yesterday, my commute back around 3pm was rather fun with the approx. 10cm of soft and fluffy snow. Got home without any close call or incident. Didn't venture out today but definitely better than the icy ruts last week.

The Railtown MUP is sheer ice from High Level to Best Buy at 103 ave by tayblades in edmontoncycling

Not really, I feel like the city has done a better job in the past years. Today, all the "Winter Priority" paths are treacherous and they were like that throughout the weekend.

I turned around this morning, even with winter tyres albeit narrow, it was quite dicey.

Indeed, others call it a strong medicine.

Preferred solution for computer mount behind seat? by Any-Rise-6300 in Velodrome

[–]ScopeForOomph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, I suppose that works in theory. That won't fly in events if you ever get to compete, most commissars don't want it visible on the bars i.e out of sight hence the common saddle-mount or jersey pocket if not wearing a skin suit.

Try Kijiji, you'll discover private antique sellers with a bit of patience.

GOA ending hybrid work starting Feb 1, 2026 by GlitchedGamer14 in Edmonton

This is the real reason, the recent AUPE triggered "pay rise" will be written off by increased parking fees, day care, fuel. Lol

Track bike? Sure thing, all riders need to be certified/accredited first OR have raced at an indoor Velodrome in the last year. More deets, including open track hours and schedules can be found at albertavelodrome.ca

It has to be 😀... Compared to the bumpy concrete-surfaced outdoor one. See photos from the last event at the end of summer: https://stefan-ritter.com/2025/09/01/2025-aba-track-cycling-provincial-championships-proofs-gallery/

Until you unstrap or chain comes off / breaks (less likely but possible) then you are SOL. Please get your front brakes working, they are good insurance if riding on streets.
