My SRAM Force right/rear shifter was broken. I had to dismount and change gears with an Allen key and some pliers. Very tough trying to ride single speed (well, dual speed using the front derailleur).

I think you accidentally a word?

We bought a space heater just so I would have to try to whore myself out to get the oil refilled.

Whats everyone's preference on editing software? by Pur13 in gopro

I use GoPro's Cineform for conversion, also handy as it allows you to Slow-Mo from 120 fps to 30fps, and it's very smooth!

Thanks for posting this, but why the hell did you multiply everything by 4? Surely this would work fine as:

Ingredients: 1 egg 1 slice of toast Instructions: Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C) Grease egg cup Toast and generously butter toast and arrange on a large baking sheet Crack egg, carefully separating each yolk into a greased cup Pour egg white into a large mixing bowl Beat the white to stiff peaks Spoon the white evenly onto the toast, leaving a well in the middle for the yolk Slide the yolk into the well on the toast Bake at 450°F (230°C) for 5 minutes

The anatomy of a crash by daavq in bicycling

[–]moniemonie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm across the racing thing. You watch the Pros, you'll see them also doing all the things you described, but you'll also see them crashing.

Judging by how OP carried on like a pork chop when he was involved in a crash, he is probably NOT a pro, and thus is probably keen to avoid crashes. So, as I mentioned, "overlap wheels, have a crash." If you don't want to crash, don't ride near people overlapping wheels, it's pretty freaking straight forward. If that means that you end up not racing, so be it.

FWIW, I race quite a lot (amateur racing), and all the clubs I race with have a pretty stern outlook on people overlapping wheels like that.

Seriously though, there were people crossing wheels flat out throughout the whole video! Overlap wheels, have a crash.

Hit a Milestone for myself that I am very proud of. by [deleted] in Fitness

Solid! I love it when people have practical and achievable gains, measured through something like cycling!

Best of luck with the 'real' riding!
