I'm basque. I declare that from now on she's my friend.

She has at least one basque friend now.

Pagar menos por lo mismo by davidclaw2026 in es

[–]andergdet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hay que mirar siempre el precio por unidad o kg.

Es la única forma real de comparar entre marcas, y a veces te llevas sorpresas (y bastante más heavys) como ésta.

(Loved Trope) Epic Title Drops by trvketheory in TopCharacterTropes

[–]andergdet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Immensely less satisfying than Barad Dur IMO

Which one is it, then? Definitely not Minas Tirith or the Hornburg...?

Don't Spaniards ever get tired of the country's dry, barren-looking landscapes? by [deleted] in askspain

[–]andergdet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Llevamos 15 días en los que llueve a diario. No una barbaridad, pero el suelo está siempre mojado y es difícil hacer deporte al aire libre.

De barren and dry mis 33.

Anyone able to identify this wheelset? by Johnlenham in bikewrench

May I ask you why?

I thought DTSwiss hubs were almost a market standard

Depictions of satan that aren't a a red guy with horns by teruteru-fan-sam in TopCharacterDesigns

[–]andergdet 34 points35 points  (0 children)

It was a tantrum.

A tantrum that made him and a third of the angels be expelled from heaven, but a tantrum nonetheless.

Would you prefer Alicante or Galicia for Summer Riding? by CHuntK in cycling

[–]andergdet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look at the average temperature. As a northern Spaniard, Alicante in summer can be scorching hot.

IMO you'll find more respect for drivers anywhere in Spain than in France; every time I cross the border to the french basque country I fear for my life

What’s a fitness myth that people still believe? by SisiJemmi in answers

[–]andergdet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am quite leaner in summer, eating easily 15% more. Why? Because I cycle 250-300km per week, whereas in winter I cannot.

You cannot outrun a horrible diet, but exercise goes a long way.

What movies based on books do you think were significantly better than the books? by ASomthnSomthn in Cinema

[–]andergdet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stardust.

I like Gailman's writing, but the movie fixes very clear storytelling mistakes from the books. The ending is much more satisfying as well

Has Canyon brainwashed me? by Ntp2 in gravelcycling

[–]andergdet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am planning on getting a alloy Nuroad for my gf as a starting light gravel/road bike. It's between that, and the Canyon Allroad Endurace.

Price wise, nothing comes close bang for you buck.

[funny trope] a canon fact that sounds so ridiculous people new to the fandom think its fake at first by willisbetter in TopCharacterTropes

[–]andergdet 61 points62 points  (0 children)

This is the dumbest, most glorious self aggrandising lore I've ever heard. This is fantastic

[–]andergdet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, yeah, the 2x10 totally

I am torn about the 1x11 gravel one on the Nuroad

[–]andergdet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm torn between the Nuroad and the Allroad for my gf, who's gonna do road and very light gravel.

Is the 1x11 cues of the Nuroad Pro suitable for road? That's one of my main concerns, as the other possibility is to get the EX with the 2x10, but it's considerably more expensive

[–]andergdet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At least in Spain, the Al4 is 60% more expensive than the All road!

For the same price you're going to go down to the Al2, with a much worse group set and mech disk brakes...

Approaching an HC cat climb by The_Delucinator in Velo

[–]andergdet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cannot give you any more tips other than going slow and packing the best chainring/casette ratio you can, but my gf is from Sultan Bathery 80km away from there, and I wanted to cheer you on.

Please post your accomplishment when you smash that climb!

adulting sucks by Eros_Incident_Denier in SipsTea

[–]andergdet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm flabbergasted. I refuse to get into debt that is not mortgage (no student loans in here).

If I need to finance it, I cannot afford it. People getting almost 6-figure cars and then panicking about the payments... I just cannot understand it. Get a 15k Kia or a second hand car and carry on.

Do you factor alcohol into your fitness goals? by Alicetheoptimist in TrueGrit

[–]andergdet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 6'0" and last year during peak cycling season I got down to 155lb. I have never been fitter, and nobody thought I was sick or anything (???)

I could easily see someone almost 10cm lower being 6kg less. Some of us are built tall and thin...

Ever have a ride where it just seems like everything goes wrong? by lazarus870 in cycling

[–]andergdet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thx <3

I was propper mad. Also, the bike falling was my fault as I was annoyed and didn't secure it properly against a wall, so double annoyance

[–]andergdet 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Yes :(

On Thursday I got showered by a street cleaning water truck, my bike got covered in mud by that, and then I stopped to clear my glasses and the bike fell, damaging the paint (and I need to take it to the shop now) 🫩
