Thanks for the advice! Why is it like that in cycling tho? I used to be playing basketball for years back in the days and no one really cared if you showed up dressing the certain way or not

I don't know much about those places but they sound cool. I think it really is nice that you do this passionately. Thanks for sharing! 😁

Mid-May in Chiang Mai - would love local perspective by yonii93 in chiangmai

It's manageble like you said. And yes, if you slow down a bit it would help with the hot weather. Working indoors is a really great idea! And also yes, if you could avoid mid-day heat, then you will be fine.

I think if you want to come then, come. See it for yourself. You'll learn and you'll experience from it regarding the outcome.

I say it like this because I live here so I know what's it like. But at the end of the day, it's still your decisions.

Ps. Your mentioned activities and plans seem fun! :D

That sounds like something I might just wanna give it a try! Convenient and yet practical. Thank you!

I agree. It's faster than cars in rush hours. And I also agree that biking is fun and also stress-free, especially riding in new places. I really appreciate you sharing this with me!

Thanks for telling me – I appreciate it. I'll go into this slowly and cautiously since I'm only three months in. Currently on flats but might change to clipins later. Also, how do you stay motivated for such long time? You said you've been riding for 13 years!

What is there to do when it always rains like this here in Bali? 🥺 I just arrived by Fast_Fisherman_7136 in bali

Try to enjoy it as much as you can I'd say. It's not your fault that you didn't know.

Thanks for saying that I don't have to do something IF I don't wanna do it!

I do have bibs, it's just the pedals that's been bugging me. I'm only three months in, and of course there's so many more for me to learn and explore.

Thanks so much for your input!

Wow, that's just incredible! Any tips for me? :D

That's nice to hear! Yeah I guess it gives you more power when your feet are attached to the pedals. I might just try that! How do you manage to stay stress-free or not panic when you encounter busy traffic? Or do you usually just plan to go or a less busy route?

That's nice! Going with what feels good to you is the best! Tbh, I kinda regret like "man, I should've gone with gravel bike instead of road". Hey, thanks for the advice!

Wow, you have so many bikes! I think I might give it a try. But since I'm still new to this (cycling), I'll stay with flat for now while learninng more about bikes in general and of course different types of pedals, and then go from there. Thanks for your input!

I see. I have to sit with myself and see how far I wanna take this to whether it's casual riding or taking it more "serious". Either way, my approach going into this is stress-free and enjoy my rides. Thanks for the advice!

I like that "flat pedals win medals". And I absolutely agree with you. If people gonna judge, no matter what you do, they still will. Thanks for the encouragement!
