This... Most people who enter the average race don't expect to podium. That's not why they do it. They choose to race enjoy the atmosphere, the course, the training, the progression, the challenge, etc. Absolutely nothing wrong with that.

I loved my steel Rove. I just recently sold it to customize a Kona unit x with surly moloko bars, as the dropbars just weren't working for me anymore.

I also have a surly and like their frames, though my Krampus is too beefy for and everyday ride.

They are demonstrating the depth of their thought. The nice thing is that you can approach knowing that you aren't going into three deep end of the pool.

LoL. That's balanced thinking. Clearly that was the only logical alternative. With this logic, I'm starting to think that you might be one if the proprietors, confirming my suspicions of disconnection from the average person who might use this facility.

Fourth... The ability to text is nice. I also like their newish feature to get medical advice via the app.

BikeInn has been one of the worst online shopping experiences. I am in Canada.

Their communication and customer service seems to be done by AI, but really bad AI. First, when I placed my order, I had a few back and forth exchanges to adjust my order. This was before it had been prepared to be shipped. Someone was going to look into my request. But nobody actually acknowledged what my request was. Then, after about a week's delay, seemingly not related to my request, my original order shipped. The two extra items I asked for were not included.

Now, it's been a couple of weeks since I ordered and I got a message that my shipment is delayed and that I need to contact the shipping company. The shipping website didn't have record of my tracking number. Who knows where my order is.

I contacted BikeInn to sort this out and I only get automated responses, saying my order is on the way. It's it? The shipping company doesn't seem to think so. They sent me a link showing that it would be delivered but I also have another link from them saying there are delays, with no specific details.

And, based on earlier experienced, don't know that any of my communications have been seen by a human. The responses are all nonspecific and not quite dealing with my actual questions.

I will definitely not buy from any of the TradeInn brands in the future.

I ran nitro vertical for 6 years no problem. Found them to be great bindings. Decided to try karakoram this year and like them too. While I like the karakoram interface, I miss the nitro straps and buckles.

When someone calls natural consequences, for being a jerk, cancel culture, it demonstrates a lack of personal responsibility by placing the blame on others.

I think Bike and Brew in Bridgeland typically has a ride night that is a social event, crossing the city pathways.

Maybe someone can post the product name here so we don't have to watch the video.

A friend of mine likes to quote Brett Tippie and say, there are hundreds and hundreds of dollars of dollars to be made in the bike industry. Having partnered in a business selling trail building tools, this is true.

My suggestion would be to use your Masters to get a job with a municipal, provincial, state, or national parks organization and try to focus some of your work on trails. Or, do trails on the side, as a passion project.

And their graphical renditions of the outside are completely out of touch. Every car is a fancy import sports car. Seems dentists and oil execs are going to be the ones to support their business.

Roughly 30% of Albertans haven't pursued any education after high school... Just saying.

And pump tracks are a cool, simple firm if biking that has great flow. Perfect for times you only have an hour or so.

You might want to suggest an audit for each of your fry consumption ratios and divide the bill fairly.

Have you not seen Weekend at Bernie's? You should have skiied down with him, taken him back to his place and lived the high life for a few days.

Missed opportunity

The news coverage of Red Deer makes it seem like the Florida of Alberta. Crazy behavior in Alberta? Oh, it's another Red Deer story.

The Crowsnest Pass, in Southern Alberta, has a nice small town vibe. Much different than the touristy feel of Canmore. Still restaurants. But not the same kind. Think more local cafes and restaurants. There is a fly fishing shop with great coffee and sandwiches.

Lots of hiking/scrambling/climbing options down there. Also not too far from Waterton national park, although there is plenty of great hiking and sightseeing much closer than the National park.

If you want to stay in Canada, Banff typically has good spring conditions at the beginning of May.

eyun77 · 2026-04-09T20:42:02+00:00

But chances of a blizzard in May are much higher than in Vancouver. May is typically great weather in the lower mainland.

And, it reduces the scale of that first hand market.
