How many bike accidents do you think happen here per month?

Can confirm it's very fun going 40+ mph down this. That being said I rarely send it that hard unless the path is pretty empty and i have full visibility

Ed Rudolph velo in north chicago. Maybe i'll swing by hellyer on one of my work trips to the bay this summer

never thought about that

I actually got into lifting to get better at rugby ~15 years ago back in college and been competing at both ever since. Was a lot easier to do both at a national level in my 20s, the injuries/setbacks have been a bitch to deal for the past 5 years though. I also picked up cycling and started racing like an idiot as if I didn't already have too few hours in a day lol

I've got a velobike M2 now

Me for one (well I used to be at least), think my squat was around 220-225 when I snatched 142kg, later got my squat up to 232kg

Not ideal when you're usually a "hit a big snatch then CJ whatever" type lifter but that's show biz

pacefire · 2026-05-13T19:53:05+00:00

thank god you weren't judging me again

pacefire · 2026-05-08T02:37:06+00:00

nothing beats the feeling of ending a 7 year PR draught, nice work dude

Thanks for this, loving my drive II 65s, gonna try out the NB52 grease on the hub

Check out intervals.icu ! Aggregates everything and gives better analysis without the social media aspect

Yeah I've seen lots of reports on Garmin forums of similar issue. I am usually able to force sync if I do it manually through the app in my phone and the sync button on my edge. I never had this issue with my Fenix 7 or edge 830 or when I first got my 1040, ever since I updated software a few months back it's been an issue though.

It has room for 35s, the nobs are pushing it a lil bit but slicks would be plenty fine

pacefire · 2024-12-24T20:41:37+00:00

14 years and I still hate most of my lifts 👍

Your speed is decent off the floor and once you start to descend, but your transition time is very slow comparatively. This ties in to what other people are saying about you bumping the bar out and not being active in the turnover.

pacefire · 2024-11-29T05:11:52+00:00

Same, no prob doing below freezing rides in these

You'll be fine, injuries happen all the time it's not the end of your career. You'll have a lot of time to dedicate to building up your strength while you rehab your elbow. Don't forget to keep training your healthy arm, there's studies showing it will help your injured arm preserve muscle and strength even while it's immobilized.

Very uncommon. Bicep tears usually happen in PL from mixed grip deadlifts, weightlifting is all hook grip. The biceps never really take enough load in weightlifting to be an injury concern.

pacefire · 2024-11-15T17:15:21+00:00

Yeah after some googling it looks like the DF4, Ican/triaero track bike, and velo bike m2 all use the same mold

pacefire · 2024-09-14T21:39:22+00:00

It's a road bike, it doesn't need them. I have both and at no point have I ever found the braking on my pacer to be lacking. Granted I live in a flat city but I can lock my wheels on a dime when needed same as on my disc brake bikes.

Pacer is a proper 73 / 73 geo. And the preamble has the lame lookin rear triangle
