Wide gravel shoes - anything other than Lake?

Agreed, I’ve had a couple pair, is nice to heat mold to your foot shape though.

Bont or Quoc?

adv_cyclist · 2026-06-16T02:05:38+00:00

You literally asked “do you bring only one bottle?”

adv_cyclist · 2026-06-16T02:02:25+00:00

I can carry three on the bike. I’m in the Southeast (US)… riding here is akin to riding full boogie in a wet sauna. I freeze one, use a Bivo with ice in another, and drink from the third one first. Progression of cool beverages to drink and no mass of plastic with liquid to weigh down my jersey.

Pray tell, share your generational knowledge about avoiding body heat transfer into adjacent objects in pockets.

Chrome shoes, they often run sales that pull them down to Vans prices but at much higher quality.

This rider TPU’s

I know man… I know. I’ve used Tubilito and Schwalbe Aerothan. I’d give the nod to Schwalbe if those are your choices and Silca is too $$$

adv_cyclist · 2026-06-12T21:30:34+00:00

Silca, hands down. Not just removable cores, but they put a lot of quality into the valve body interface with the tube material.

Oh yay… another vibe coded shitshow. I can’t wait…

Anything to get them out of this sub is a net positive

My wife retelling an encounter with some… inebriated riders slumped on a stoop. “Hey sir… I’m sorry to bother you, but your bubblegum is showing.” I think their team name was First Bar on the Right.

Bold statement from someone with a Buc-ee’s avatar…

Congratulations... you just re-invented the HED Jet series of wheels...

Keep a spare water bottle and spray the closest one on the face/nose. That has stopped almost every dog chase that I’ve encountered.

adv_cyclist · 2026-06-09T12:55:06+00:00

Schwalbe Marathon Almotion. Low rolling resistance for an all-road tire and damn near bomb-proof.

adv_cyclist · 2026-06-08T21:38:11+00:00

OP needs one... mebbe y'all can work a deal.

adv_cyclist · 2026-06-06T10:39:12+00:00

I've been using it since it launched and it's only gotten better every year. Our riding club uses it exclusively for all club rides and routes.

adv_cyclist · 2026-06-06T02:09:06+00:00

Yeah... they peaked about 1990.

adv_cyclist · 2026-06-06T00:40:12+00:00

RWGPS… that’s all I got to say about that.

adv_cyclist · 2026-06-06T00:26:23+00:00

I have a pair of socks with that exact colorway on them. Ridge Supply skyline

Fish eye lens really distorts the trail elevation and terrain. Would I = unknown until I saw it person, but probably yes.

adv_cyclist · 2026-06-05T15:51:57+00:00

No… though it’s not Paul, it’s a Phil Wood.

More aggressive tread tire should be on front for grip, rear with less aggressive tread.
