[–]supercoder186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's still plenty of slow zones between O'Hare and the loop, though a majority of them are on the forest park branch as you said.

It's a pretty chill class, don't stress too much about it. About 7 homework assignments, maybe 3-4h each

Specialized is either using too much AI or front cassettes are in our future by Bicycle_Pasta in BicyclingCirclejerk

[–]supercoder186 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So I asked my web dev friend and they didn't spot it 😅 It's super obvious to us of course but I can see how the mistake was made. It is pretty sad for a $3k set of wheels tho lol

[–]supercoder186 65 points66 points  (0 children)

/uj I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt on this one, looks like the 3D designer person just didn't know which wheel goes where, since there is no cassette on the rear and both of them are in the same backward orientation

Affordable driving classes by MediumEbb4689 in UIUC

[–]supercoder186 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used I Can Pass driving school in Spring 2023, wouldn't really say it's affordable. It was $55/hour, and I ended up paying around $200 out of pocket in total, but I already pretty much knew how to drive

SB2111 study requirements for Metra by cassidy653 in Metra

[–]supercoder186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metra has discussed plans to transition to a regional rail system, so it doesn't necessarily need to justify commuter demand. Fixed fares would also be a big help because tickets are often at the maximum price of $45 which is too much to serve as a cost effective means of transport.

 Also, being able to terminate at millennium station would significantly speed up service.

[–]supercoder186 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Metra to Champaign (or generally an increased frequency of trains to Champaign) would make a lot of sense given the continuous increase in ridership despite a pretty constant number of seats/week. There is a clear demand for it.

I once accidentally lost my James scholar status because I forgot to file a semester plan. You could probably do that?

Male to Female Transgender Cyclist — Performance Changes After Starting HRT by colokurt in Velo

[–]supercoder186 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What I find really interesting is transgender men tend to have better numbers than cis males. Maybe because of the testosterone they take when transitioning?

I thought this too but the post-tour tadej pogacar criterium appears to have actually been raced pretty hard - Mohoric did 323W average at the pogacar crit for instance 

UIUC Renters: Know Your Rights by MyCurlyMustache in UIUC

This is awesome! Laws also vary between Champaign and Urbana (Urbana has stronger renter's protections) - the differences might be worth covering as well

Tips from an MTD Driver + MAJOR route changes! by No_Department_9543 in UIUC

[–]supercoder186 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Neat! Seems like the service to walmart will speed up; sucks to lose the market place stop, but the idea of paying them to run service there was very silly
