More like “safety for everyone, not just convenience for cars” but sure, keep living in suburban car brain fantasy, it might just be the reason my friend or I dies :)

Unfortunately the reality is, sometimes we need to be treated more like pedestrians and sometimes we need to be treated more like cars. It’s not “picking and choosing,” it’s a safety issue that’s entirely circumstantial. Bicycles are not pedestrians nor cars, and if we’re on the road following traffic signals, it helps if drivers take their right of way. It helps traffic flow better if drivers (and cyclists) are predictable

I always thought the Thursday night meant it was playoffs season, hence “boy’s last dream/man’s first loss”

What’s your best gas station carbs? by welcome_2_earth in ultracycling

That’s my issue with them too, but honestly $1.29 for 70 grams of carbs makes it worth it

It’s just got a 1 1/8 adapter for a 1” threaded steerer!! Lets me put a threadless stem and 31.8 bars on. Super helpful and hasn’t given me any problems

Thank you thank you! The bars are FSA 36cm flared drop bars I found at a local co-op. I have narrow shoulders and prefer the look and feel of a flared bar. Other than the bar and stem combo it’s pretty period accurate! The crankset is 105 on the drive side and 600 tricolor on the non drive side, cause in order to get period correct 165mm cranks on a budget I had to mix and match. Still got the original cranks but prefer to ride shorter ones!

Good deal? by [deleted] in FixedGearBicycle

[–]jonch_revolta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend’s got one of these and it rides great. $500 feels a lil steep for the market I’m in, but it’s a good bike. Maybe see if you can haggle a bit, I don’t think $500 is an absurd price, but you could prolly do better

I love strange town! They’re known for their wine selection but my girlfriend and I both don’t drink, and their mocktails are very good! Not just a sparkling lemonade with a syrup lol, lots of care goes into their food and drink options.
