    The Indoor Cyclist's support thread

    I realized my cross bike which is my trainer bike was starting to need a new chain. While swapping the chain I figured I'd try putting my single-speed cog on vs my Ultegra cassette. Poor man's Zwift cog. 99.9% of the time I'm in ERG mode so just ran it in the gear that lined up with the front...

    New E-bike legislation in NJ

    I was in an Iowa bike shop and was noticing an old road bike for sale had a registration sticker on it. Got into a long discussion with the owner about how the state used to require bikes be registered. I guess this anti-bike hate isn't new there.

    The people who ride old fluid trainers while staring at their walls are probably the best racers.

    The next few years. Does diversity matter?

    There's a spreadsheet somewhere that they used to figure out the valuation. It could be that they know there's more value in the frequencies than what's on the surface, or maybe there's actually enough money in subscriber fees to keep minor upkeep of the system going? Think of Iridium how it...

    Yeah, I was mostly joking. Their whole culture is different than the vulture capital types. But that culture can change over time, not with the people at the top now and maybe not with the ones they choose to replace them, but a few lines of succeeding leaders. Buffet has said multiple times...

    Remind him that it's also a running race and his wife can sign up to run it. Me and a friend may now be committed... I dislike you greatly.

    Let us know if you end up registering. We live right by the Start/Finish. We often ride there from our house.

    Car-spotting thread

    Funny, I was actually thinking of the Panamera. I recently saw how basically the front of the car comes off for the air filter. Tons of plastic panels, front headlights, front bumper.

    Yeah, NGL it's kind of appealing in the fact that it's really hard, but also really do-able with enough time. With it being fire-road climbs you can settle into a pace vs rolling technical rides where your energy is sapped just by trying to move. Race starts out with a 1800 foot climb and then...

    Front end didn't need to come off for an air filter? Is that even a Porsche?
