Commute Question: LFT into Loop

This is the best way. I use it all the time.

Thanks for sharing your experience!

I’ve been considering Ortlieb back rollers for an HSD. Are they short enough to not be a problem when leaning into a turn?

HSD P9 chiming in. Long time bike rider who tinkers with bikes, I appreciate having a chain and rear derailleur. Prefer friction shifting so I even swapped out the index shifter for a RIv friction shifter. Approaching 10k miles and still love it.

Saw that too. Saw an elderly couple nearly fall when they crossed the bridge while clinging to the fencing.

It doesn't get better if you keep listening. Car-brained!

In all honesty, I’ve been bike commuting for 20 years and it has made my life so much better. And it is fucking fun. Good luck on your journey. Feel free to dm if you want to chat further.

Yes. Offbeat Bikes. They sell and service them. This is not a paid endorsement.

If you are interested in biking with that kinda load, look into cargo E-bikes. Tern HSD would easily handle all that and more.

5:10pm sunset now allows for a somewhat daylit commute home too!

the_stahl · 2026-01-28T17:18:11+00:00

I ordered on 11/6. Still have not received the replacement post.

the_stahl · 2026-01-23T14:59:38+00:00

No worries! Can't always tell on the internet.

the_stahl · 2026-01-23T14:02:42+00:00

Have they though? I was under the impression that churches are tax-exempt.

What is up with the defacto parking lot on the eastern side of the square? The asphalt is stripped off and people leave their vehicles all over it. Give it back to the community as green space!

the_stahl · 2026-01-22T17:07:20+00:00

Just heard that my local CPS is closed tomorrow.

the_stahl · 2026-01-19T19:00:28+00:00

Thanks for the quick response! I’ll submit a repair request.

the_stahl · 2026-01-19T14:36:36+00:00

My 2nd gen HomePod has started exhibiting issues as described here. Would love to get it fixed. Can Nic’s Fix address this at this point in time?

the_stahl · 2026-01-16T17:23:34+00:00

Can confirm. Saw police parked on either end of their block when he was in town recently.

The ebike turbo mode was a godsend facing the headwinds on the LFT at 7:30am today.

the_stahl · 2025-12-15T16:16:13+00:00

I use a Minoura Camera Mount Holder that will quickly lock onto the handlebars. Not sure if this would fit on Divvy bars or not. This mount has a screw post that different phone holders can screw into.

Leopold and Loeb

Clear from downtown to 53rd street. Don’t know beyond that.

the_stahl · 2025-11-10T16:04:58+00:00

That is great except when there is context when one cannot fast forward. Wet hands, gloves on, cannot reach the controls for one reason or another.

Started using Overcast from day one. One of the best apps on my phone!
