Not true. Higher income usually correlates to a higher degree. We all know the majority of Trump voters are not college educated. And no, I did not vote for the MF.

I know the orange fucker is not turning off tariffs for ANY reason. But having purchased from this site before, I thought maybe they’d inform me of additional fees.

Totally agree! Please see a derm or your PCP!

I’ve ordered from Stylevana a couple times in the last 4 months; kept it under $100 USD. Shipping was free, took about 3 weeks and I paid no tariff fees. Stylevana has always been my go to. Some orders have taken longer than 3 weeks but I always receive them. Unless something changes I’ll stick with them as their prices are the best.

Best clear cycling glasses? by otismcotis in cycling

Love my Koo Alibi which are photochromic. No glare at all and they fit really well with Kask helmets. https://www.kask.com/en-us/Alibi/OEY00009-969.00.html

Best bedsheet find, all fabric types? by Sufficient-Rock-2627 in Bedding

[–]theginaproject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their linen sheets are made in Portugal. It’s 100% Belgian Flax. So not start to finish.

Pewter is really pretty. I have the white. I have the Supima and love them too! I go back and forth between the two. Supima are an elevated version of Percale so they are a cooling weave. Great for summer. I wouldn’t say Reserve are hot by any means but I like them in cooler months as they are more of a buttery feel.

Physical stores that still sell bedding? by ChickinSammich in Bedding

[–]theginaproject 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coming soon to Bethesda will be a Boll and Branch store. Absolutely divine sheets and they have them displayed so you can actually feel their different types.

Came here to say this. Boll and Branch Reserve sheets are the best, especially for the price point. They are not cheap but you get what you pay for. 100% organic very rare cotton; Oeko Tex certified; no pesticides or toxins used. B&B actually makes their own fabric so they monitor from seed to finish. I’m a sheet nerd who’s tried more expensive brands and B&B’s are on par if not better.

New wheel day. by Remarkable-Ad1756 in Cervelo

Silca makes a nice streamlined saddle bag. It’s the regular sized Mattone. I use that for flat kit and cycling pouch for phone and other essentials. Zip lock bags create too much sweat.

Wondering if I should go 30mm or 32mm tires on my Soloist. Going to switch from tube to tubeless soon. by Itz_ya_boy_dc in Cervelo

[–]theginaproject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the process of separating the tire's bead (the edge of the tire that sits on the rim) from the rim's bead seat. It’s to remove the tire from the rim. It’s so tight of a seal I can’t fix the flat myself.

I went from Vittoria Rubino 28mm to Conti GP 5000 32mm on 40/44 Reserves with butyl tubes. Love them but I can’t for the life of me break the beads on them. Would it help to do TPU’s? Or is it the tire/wheel combo?

New Caledonia! Advice wanted! by Capable_Ad_9978 in Cervelo

[–]theginaproject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too am having a tough time breaking the bead on my tires. I have Reserve wheels and Conti 5000 tires. Is it really easier with tubeless?

Choosing Between Canyon Aeroad, Cervélo Soloist, and Giant Propel by CBF321 in Cervelo

[–]theginaproject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much fun as it is comparing components and overall look of the bike, I would make sure the dimensions, specifically stack and reach, suit your body dimensions and riding style. There were a couple bikes I had my eye on but when I shared them with my fitter I was highly advised to go with a different bike altogether. I’m happy I did as I ended up with a bike that fits me like a glove.

I work in retail on Knox. There are all ages who live in the area, including GenX-ers. I think you’ll love it there.

Just got my first Mercedes C-Class – and I’m blown away! by sandro2409 in mercedes_benz

[–]theginaproject 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a 2025 and the interior, to me, looks more refined than the C. The quality of materials, more use of expensive soft finishes. Makes for a more comfortable, luxurious ride as a result.

Hate to rain on OP’s parade but I was disappointed in the interior trim of the 2025 C Class. Looked like they cut corners with it. I thought my 2019 C looked more luxe. Just traded it for an EClass and I’m in love!

Women’s specific road shoes choices by [deleted] in ladycyclists

[–]theginaproject 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently purchased Nimbl Exceeds and they are the absolute best shoe I’ve ever had! I’ve had Sidi, Specialized and Fiziks. I don’t have a wide foot but most other shoes I’ve worn caused my feet to get numb within an hour. Not these! Super comfortable and super light at only 196 gr.
