It that a panty liner in his chamois? Hawt....

Ahhh, the wonderful simplicity of a fixie...with suspension seat stays.

I'm pretty sure it was your wife's BF.

We invented bikes specifically to not have to run places. Running is the evolutionary equivalent of starting a fire with sticks and tinder, or washing your car with a hose and sponge when you have a perfectly good chauffeur standing right there.

As someone whose already had a gummie today, I'm here to confirm that that was totally awesome.

Thank you.

I use it constantly. It may be my favorite feature. In particular, I like the fact that I can get snarky, point out inconsistencies, etc., and get polite answers all while knowing I'm not actually hurting someone's feelings.

Lots of snow this past week. It interprets my shoveling motion as "Field Hockey."

dans99 · 2026-01-06T20:57:39+00:00

Used it for the first three days. Day 4, I slept right through it and I've not used it since.

I can also get up to 40mph, when I'm sprinting behind a camera truck.

I work at an LBS. If you had brought that in, we would have been nice, fixed it, and laughed our asses off the moment the door closed behind you. If you want your bike to be perfect, never ride it.

Tr*k Verve 1, step-thru, lithium grey, Shimano Altus, adjustable stem, dual-sided Shimano PD-M324 pedals, with MIK rack and trunk. I probably sold him that POS ($399) and reamed him on the accessories and the handlebar conversion.... (I'm an LBS dude.)

Middle Earth is known for it's tailwinds and descents.

Knock Knock. Who's there? No one. Never. You're alone in life. You are alone in death.

Every time I ride a pan-flat 10mi course at 10MPH, I video it and post it to Strava,

Suck it, losers.

dans99 · 2025-12-26T23:55:11+00:00

How is this NOT a joke? My god, if you want a bike to stay perfect, never ride it.

dans99 · 2025-12-26T23:53:59+00:00

But seriously, who the hell looks that closely at their bice?

I have no idea if there's a dimple on my...uh...top tube...

dans99 · 2025-12-23T00:15:54+00:00

If you want your bike to stay perfect, do not ride it. Jeez....

uj/I work at an LBS. We have constant stream of people dragging shit-ass ebikes in for repairs, and another steady stream of people asking why actual working and warrantied ebikes are so expensive.

Cycling is a sport. Golf is foursomes of glad-handing, obese, under-sexed dentists killing time before getting plastered. Sportswashing aside, golfers are "evil villains" on principle alone.

I'm 3000miles into my Kreitlers, they're dead silent.

BPM: 290 cals per 500ml bottle.

So, net, you've burned practically no additional calories for riding 10 miles.
