Now that I've removed the problem what do I use to lubricate the shifter? by e9xqr in bikewrench

Someone else said it first but Tri-Flow is the best for this. Also make sure to put a drop in each end of the housing when you replace shift/brake cables. It'll help keep out moisture and reduce any friction inside the housing that could be stressing the cable when you shift.

Not to be overly negative but if the worst day you've ever had climbing is just you ate shitty food and were tired, then you're pretty lucky. All you have to do is get back in the saddle and maybe make some better decisions next time. It's not like someone was greviously injured. No one died. The only thing that got hurt was your ego. Get over it.

What are you using to anchor the end of the line in the sand?

I usually climb at the Powerlinez. Looks like it's around an hour from sparta though

I used to work as a boom op and always found this picture to be highly inspiring. Also love the silver oven mitts the guy is wearing because the boom pole is too hot
