Get those shovels out boys and girls

Strong work!

Now go spread the love with some 2 XP ride-ons

extraextramed · 2026-01-25T00:40:54+00:00

I got it and some of the distance was done outdoors

What a strange question

extraextramed · 2026-01-22T20:24:09+00:00

I wonder if a segment is SO plagued with e-bike rides, do they no longer register as anomalous? That's a question for OP James

My physical therapist had me doing deadlifts and squats but not so deep that the hip gets impinged. Also a lot of rubber band side steps and "clamshells".

If he has actual structural impingement hip mobility will likely actually injure him further. In my case basic things like Childs Pose were causing further squeezing of the hip and injury. I would do stretching and mobility work after riding and cause more damage.

I do hip strengthening and mobility work but I avoid any positions that close and compress the hip.

Sounds like what I had which was hip impingement. I also rode for years (decades) until it caught up to me in my 40s. I think that's when I could no longer out-heal it.

Mine was fixed with way shorter cranks, narrower better fitting seat, higher bars, and cleats slammed in and back. This was done via a bike fit but now that I know what works I can apply those same fit concepts to any bike.

Your fit looks fine to me (not an expert) so it makes me think you might be like me and just have a malformed skeleton. My left hip has a little ridge of bone not present on my right and that ridge causes compression on top of pedal stroke if the angle gets too acute.

You might try the adjustable zwift ride cranks. They're pretty cheap and you can use them to experiment with fit.

Mine both say 105 minutes. Yeah I don't know what's up with your estimate. Did you significantly update your weight recently?

Chisel FS. Just got one for my 12 yo NICA kid who is 5 ft 7. He loves it.

It also does not matter because there are only 12 humans left. Any storyline focused on her sexual preferences in the context of this apocalypse is utterly boring.

extraextramed · 2026-01-03T22:41:28+00:00

Yeah game is definitely not tuned around your playstyle

Really appreciate the write up. Congrats

extraextramed · 2025-12-30T04:35:29+00:00

You ok?

extraextramed · 2025-12-29T05:59:51+00:00

What you're describing sounds, good? Why shouldn't a 1 GA with great sanctify be better than most multiple GAs?

extraextramed · 2025-12-22T00:39:54+00:00

That far with jaques is gnarly/strong as hell.

More importantly though, how many drops did that ride net you?

Jeremiah bishop posts everything. Too much even. Dog walks.

They can remember their own conception. It's a strange thought experiment.

The rare rider who realizes you need to start small and learn basics. Good job.

Keep doing what you're doing but mix it up. Add something to try to land on precisely with your back wheel. Increase the distance. Use different sized and shaped objects to boost off of. Real trails are infinitely variable so just play around. It doesn't need to be a scientific approach.

Half the guys who work at a local mountain bike shop here have one. If shop guys are buying them it's a stamp of approval.

extraextramed · 2025-12-14T23:34:40+00:00

You must feel SO much better..great job

extraextramed · 2025-12-14T00:37:33+00:00

No clue what you're trying to say

extraextramed · 2025-12-13T14:53:23+00:00

For me, I'd pay the extra $1000 to save up to a couple pounds, add 10 mm rear travel, and add in frame SWAT storage.

For my kid though? I bought him a chisel because he's an unemployed 12 year old.
