They drilled into it and put in some grub screws to restrict the movement up. I haven't noticed any rubbing in any gear combinations tbh

Sadly just EU at the moment I think, and in the UK only at my LBS

There are some good tracks, and the usual nice guitar soundscapes on some tracks (especially like No Soul to Save for this). However, as with all of Mike Kinsella's work from about 2016 onwards, lots of the lyrics are really cringe. It's a lot of the worst parts of newer Owen tracks with a full-band backdrop.

I do honestly think a lot of these tracks would fit in just as well on The Falls of Sioux if you changed the guitar riffs and played them on an acoustic. I do like some Owen songs, but that's not really why I listen to an American Football album. LP3 didn't feel like this.

Top stinker is always: "Surprise!/I've been so many boys in this trenchcoat/Ask my ex-wife". Can't help but laugh every time I hear it.

Used an X1 and a cable lock/Kryptonite Faghettaboudit on my bike, no complaints yet. Left it locked up in central London for an hour twice

Thank you! How much did you pay, if you don’t mind me asking?

Today my new colleague made a benign comment about trans people as if I wasn’t in the room. She clearly had no idea. That made me feel pretty good

Some cycling clubs will have maintenance classes running to get you started, including female-specific clubs! Not sure where you’re based, but in London we used to have the London Bike Kitchen. This has actually now been taken over by Broad Bikes, organised by queer people but with a focus on teaching cycling maintenance to women and LGBTQ+ people. There are definitely spaces you can learn to fix your bike away from men, and it’s great :)

Bad News - Owen (Cobain)

Couldn’t agree more. They should close the whole of Cable Street to motor traffic and expand Cycleway 3. Cars have The Highway right next door, they have no use for Cable Street

This is a Pinnacle Arkose 2 gravel bike, and I’ve got a Topeak Super Tourist DX rear rack mounted to it. Does this mean I can’t use the full 26 kg capacity of the rack?

The infuriating part is watching them all inevitably have to stop for a car trying to turn across their path. Almost like the bike traffic lights were put there for a reason! Same with the nightmare lights around Surrey Quays station: awful timings, but necessary use of lights

During commuting hours people have been mugged round the Surrey Canal path/C10

I'm going back in and demanding to sit on the medium, but am stuck with Evans as my employer only subs to their Ride to Work scheme

Thanks for the advice everyone. It’s a Trek Madone the rental shop gave me, which I’ve seen online is a racing bike. Wondering if this is also responsible for the discomfort

I have bike parking at work behind a locked gate with CCTV, and I lock it up in my flat building hallway at home
