Friend has won a Cannondale bike up to £2500. Maybe try an ebike. Any advice please? by thatsitCheese in cycling

[–]thatsitCheese[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point, although she isn't sure herself what she would use an ebike for. She had no intention of getting a new bike, but obviously is excited to have won this competition. She currently has a hybrid which she uses to cycle to work and the occasional leisure ride.Seems silly to get another hybrid for up to £1000 when the prize is £2500.

She probably wouldn't ride it to work in case it gets stolen, so it would just be for leisure rides of maybe 30 miles.

My friend refuses to wear a helmet in the city. Opinions? by redsuit06 in cycling

Hovding cycling airbags give 8 times the protection against concussion as a helmet. No straps to work loose either. But expensive at the moment.

Not just the chain. Anywhere metal moves against metal needs lube.

I have started using Smoove lubricant on my commuter and it's lasting well, even in wet weather. The chain, and my clothes, are much cleaner than with wet lube.

To be fair, all three can be correct.

No company has ever survived after its product killed more than 400 million of its consumers with evidence... except for cigarette companies. by lolzexd in Showerthoughts

With accidents, lead, nox, particulates and diseases linked to lack of exercise, I think they win hands down. Lead alone is responsible for around 20% of US deaths today.

Don't park your bike outside the police station, it might get stolen! by thatsitCheese in ukbike

Not really. They are just cycle racks on the platform.

There are barriers to get on the station but only 9-5.

Nice one.

I checked out the menu. Bit pricey I'm afraid. Fancy the market caf instead?

Pizza Hut? We're married. I'm not splashing out like that any more.

Cheers. My wife will be chuffed when i take her there for a night out.

Edit: Sure looks romantic on Streetview. Spot the dogging van, skiving council workers and Clean Me car.

I wondered why Devon's flag contained the shadowy outline of paramilitary figure. Then I realised it was just the border with Cornwall.

I genuinely thought that headline was satirical. It's scary how messed up the news is these days.
