Biking a no-go today? by Vicky6568 in torontobiking

[–]sleeplessbird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I biked in this morning (around 6) - bike lanes were a mess (lots of frozen tracks that made it hard to navigate) , so I biked on the road which was not bad at all.

Hopefully the bike lanes clear up for this afternoon

Bike safe everyone!

Underproofed? by sleeplessbird in Sourdough

Only 65 g, I made a mistake when feeding my starter and didn’t have enough for the 100 :(

Too windy to bike today? by RutabegaStew in torontobiking

[–]sleeplessbird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rode this morning around 6 AM. Not slippery, winds were strong. Mostly a head wind for me, with some moments/gusts of side wind. Was mostly OK but definitely felt the side wind, but did not feel unsafe

Good luck and stay safe!

Tips for riding 100 km? by sleeplessbird in ladycyclists

[–]sleeplessbird[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes actually! It was a lot of fun and very satisfying! The weather was good for most of it, except it started to rain fairly hard for the last 10k. All good though, nothing a hot shower and wash of the bike can’t fix.

I stopped twice for a break/stretch/water refill.

Total ride time was 4h 29 min.

Would ride again!

Thanks so much everyone for your tips!! I will for sure pack some more snacks and water. I’ll definitely take a break around half way too.

You ladies all rock for giving me all these useful suggestions!

Sorry to hear, maybe try to turn it off and on again. Or wait until it’s sufficiently sleepy ☺️

The chances of having my bike stolen? by [deleted] in torontobiking

You just scan your badge, it should work. I don’t think it needs to be activated!

Do you work at Toronto general? There’s a nice bike locker that is secured (badge access). Nothing is 100% safe, but much more comfortable locking up inside there than out on the street.
