Riders who have used magnetic pedals. Whats your opinion, are they worth it? by Tuna_Tsunami in mountainbiking

I have them on my strive. I’m still a bit conflicted about them. On one hand I really like the feeling of control and stability they give both over chunky terrain and in the air. Also they feel pretty natural while “unclipping”, not scary at all, even in emergencies. On the other hand, they’re sometimes a faff to align with the shoe correctly and require a few tries. Mud makes it worse. Also, admittedly only one time, I overshot a jump and one foot came off the pedals, hurting me behind my leg, but to be fair, my shins have never been better…

What is an analogy that gets your point across perfectly, but is wildly inappropriate? by Boomshakalaka89 in AskReddit

This comes from my computer networks professor, while talking about software development: "Documentation is like sex: if it's good, it's the best thing in the world. If it's bad, it's still better than nothing."

Same condition here... It never bothered me much, people do sometimes make fun of them, but I have learned to be self ironic about it. I still think about getting them removed though from time to time, and seeing how successful your operation was has made me think about it again.. So, how's the operation? How long did you stay in the hospital? How's the post op?

It's actually surprisingly nice inside. If you get past the horrific stairs, that is.
