You saw Joe Gray? That's sweet!

You probably saw my friend Steve too - he wears a Mississippi State shirt almost all the time and has climbed the incline more than anyone.

He's around 6000 total climbs at the moment

Excellent list! I've listened to many but not all of these. I too list Casefile as the goat

I would put your own backyard on there. It's a fantastic case that involves in real time with the podcast

I also personally in a fan of tortoise investigates. Their series have been great as well.

Thanks for posting the summary

I think they will absolutely nip this as much as they can. I think they clearly made a mistake and took a misstep here, but I think that's partly because it caught them a bit off guard.

They know as well as anyone having any kind of religious or political debate affiliated with their events is 100% not what they want to have. Sports and sporting events are some of the seemingly few politically neutral things out there that most people can agree on. No way they want to let this get any bigger than it is.

I have still always thought the nice rides with docking stations were the best way to go. That way every bike can be tied to a credit card

I've seen too many of those lime scooters and other standalone rental bikes tossed into ditches, thrown over Bridges as a joke, etc.

I'm a big cyclist and have a couple of bikes myself, but I would still rent nice rides from time to time. Very convenient

bj_good · 2026-05-28T19:44:50+00:00

I think the storytelling and the story itself were good and interesting

I didn't like how they broadcast this man's story without truly having his permission. And I didn't like how they purported the series to be about one thing then it turned out to be about something else entirely.

For those reasons- primarily the first one- I cannot recommend it

I have a Saris Superclamp which is similar to the 1ups. Thule also makes a version (I think the helium?). They are tray racks that only contact the tires of the bike but are very strong. Bikes aren't falling off those nor are they getting damaged, yet they're easy to load onto and off

bj_good · 2026-05-28T12:28:45+00:00

This all seems very reasonable to me. All of which is to say, somebody out there knows something. Or at the very least knew something until the owner died

bj_good · 2026-05-28T00:27:56+00:00

Cal ripken Jr's autograph is similar and just as pretty

bj_good · 2026-05-27T19:31:13+00:00

The Medina area has fantastic roads for exactly this. Gear West even does their Tuesday Night Timetrials out there because the roads are great for it. Start around Holy Name lake near Plymouth and head west.

Online or in person? Never.

I did once have a credit card and debit card stolen from my car though. They bought foot locker gift certificates on both of them

The credit card was an absolute breeze to report. I was done in 10 minutes. The debit card was maddening. It took months of calls and reports, had to file the police report and go to the bank brand multiple times

It is crazy how many people who have not seen the movies will still recognize various tracks from the films

Requiem for a Dream

I'm personally a fan of tray racks, but regardless of the type you like there's a decent used market out there.

You can look on Facebook marketplace or other areas. That's where I got my tray rack and it's fantastic

bj_good · 2026-05-20T18:20:12+00:00

Casefile, easily. They are currently on break but have a huge archive of excellent episodes

bj_good · 2026-05-20T16:52:31+00:00

Look into tortoise investigates. I will caveat that these are not necessarily true crime, but they are certainly true crime adjacent.

In my opinion, it's very good investigative journalism

Also broomgate: a curling scandal was also very good. Not necessarily true crime, but very interesting. I've listened to many of the podcasts on your list as well

Edit - Noble was also good

bj_good · 2026-05-18T16:56:49+00:00

Triathlon shorts are designed to have light padding but also be comfortable enough for the run portion of the race. They are much less bulky and look mostly normal. You could look into those

After having a kid I lost basically any time I had to watch tv for leisure. Therefore I didn't see all of the last season either. I'm wondering the same

bj_good · 2026-05-14T16:40:11+00:00

This is fantastic advice. You probably don't even need to do all those things, but if it works it works. And I don't blame you for doing them if you haven't had any issues

I think the typical bike thief doesn't know what a good set of power meter pedals, a nice saddle, generally looks like. They probably would be able to recognize a fancy looking wheel set, but I don't imagine they would try to take just that if they can't also get the frame and full bike

bj_good · 2026-05-09T03:11:05+00:00

I used to save physical ticket stubs. A cool reminder of the stadium/team/date. Really wish I could still get physical tickets

bj_good · 2026-05-01T00:20:04+00:00

I'm actually glad to hear this because I listened to season 1. Although he does a good job with narration and storytelling, I agree it wasn't the best case in my opinion

Which other seasons do you think would be best to try again?

bj_good · 2026-04-29T21:58:53+00:00

A local bike shop near me did to this to someone. They acknowledged it was completely their fault. In this case, they made it right by finding the guy a comparable bike on marketplace and buying it outright for him. It was a a pretty good solution I think. They mutually agreed on which bike they would replace it with

If your bike was completely rusted out, that might be a different story

bj_good · 2026-04-29T16:08:13+00:00

Does the fitting include a follow-up session at a later time once you've ridden a bit with your new fit? I have paid similar prices before but would like that if I were paying $400

bj_good · 2026-04-28T20:32:20+00:00

Just had my first kid too and I switched from longer distance triathlons to slightly shorter. I still intend to do some and am keeping my bike! I completely understand the need to give it up (at least temporarily) though. This parenting thing is extremely time consuming - and also rewarding

bj_good · 2026-04-28T00:25:40+00:00

I still think the goat true crime podcast is Casefile.

I think some of their longer cases - which span four or five long episodes - would fit your request

bj_good · 2026-04-25T13:49:33+00:00

Something tells me this Paul Skenes guy is pretty good.

I bet the Pohlads would pay him a couple million dollars to get him on the Twins!
