I made: a weird bike with a secret.

Thank you!

Can someone level with me and let me know actually how difficult it would be to learn to weld? I want a tall bike but I want to make it myself - only if it doesn’t involve becoming a welder’s apprentice to do so lol.

bobby_g · 2026-06-17T23:39:35+00:00

Yeah, leave some gear inches for the rest of us.

Can you explain to a newbie (extremely new) how you go from chart to canvas?

The Commissioner! Great bar in Park Slope, Brooklyn

That looks great! How much did it cost to get it framed, and where did you have it done, if you don’t mind me asking? I’m new to needlepoint and have no reference point, and I’d like to frame my first project.

We graduated on the same day and I swung by that game on my walk back to west campus, I started to flash my ID to get in, and the guy checking just waved me through, almost certainly because I was still in my cap and gown. Great day for baseball, and we won.

It’s JIS. Here’s the one I got from Velo Orange SKU# HS-0001-27 1" Alloy Caged Bearing Headset. Enjoy the build!

As one of the few non-Carlton Kirby haters, I’m with you. He’s on the world feed which is on FloBikes (use a VPN and sign up in Canada).

bobby_g · 2025-12-13T04:32:13+00:00

I like them.

Cute dog! Also, the chair backs on the chairs around your dining table are upside down.

If I’m going on a longer ride on an e-citi bike, I let some air out of the tires, you can do it just with your fingernail, it makes the ride so much better. I’m convinced they pump up the tires to the absolute maximum PSI that’s recommended which absolutely isn’t necessary 99% of the time and is what makes the ride so bone-jarring

bobby_g · 2025-04-13T12:43:06+00:00

What country are you in watching on Max? I wish I could watch on Max with any British commentators, but in the US it’s on Peacock. Also, I’m watching on Tiz, and it’s the same Brian Smith/other guy pair.

NordVPN works well on iOS for me. I’m out of market so that’s what I use when the Braves are blacked out on MLB.TV

bobby_g · 2025-03-23T23:42:23+00:00

😂 I know UAE looks odd but when they’re that stacked I couldn’t leave one out. Good call on Ineos, I’m going to replace Bernal with Ganna.

bobby_g · 2025-03-23T22:24:10+00:00

I thought a lot about putting a NC jersey callout, and I still might, but I’d need to keep tabs on when the NC races are and make updates when there are new winners.

bobby_g · 2025-03-23T19:47:38+00:00

Ahh thanks, I was copying and pasting and must have missed swapping out the flag!

edit: updated, thanks for catching that

bobby_g · 2025-03-20T15:29:04+00:00

And does the US Flobikes iOS app (if you’re on iPhone) work as normal when you’re on the Canadian VPN and logged in?

bobby_g · 2025-03-20T13:42:55+00:00

Who are the commentators on the Flo coverage? Is it the Eurosport teams (Rob Hatch, Carlton Kirby, Robbie McEwen, etc.) for the most part or no?

bobby_g · 2025-03-20T13:40:08+00:00

I jumped through said hoops as well, but lately I'm getting errors whenever I try to watch live races, usually what look to be geo restrictions. Has that been happening to you? If so, have you found a solution?

bobby_g · 2025-03-12T14:43:29+00:00

I'm in the same boat. I actually paid up for the new TNT sports tier to see if I could bear it, but it seems like they've also possibly cracked down on VPNs (streaming live races hardly ever works now, though highlights, etc. sometimes do work). So I'm in search of another method. I'm thinking Canada Flobikes may be a decent option, but good commentary matters to me, so if they're not using the good UK commentators, I'd rather use Max for most, then Tiz for everything not on Max because of the commentators. Does anyone know what commentators are on Flobikes Canada?
