somebody is bringing the big guns to the book sale. Proper use of a murdered out GT3

Back from the dead! my solution was to get rid of all my SRAM crap because lawd knows Shimano never let anybody down like ever.

I was going to ask this same question but was embarrassed to admit I’ve still been using a 500…that was until I recently upgraded to my wife’s hand-me-down 510, and let me tell u how super pumped I was to learn that I didn’t have to plug it into a computer to upload xcept that the 510 freezes up...

Can somebody explain the matte paint thing to me? Saw this otherwise tight looking 991.1 turbo (@Carson fact check that) on the way to work. I've seen plenty of matte cars but this thing looked like a 70's velvet painting. who wore it better?

I have to deal with a title replacement and register a boat/trailer. Lucky I was able to grab an appointment at Wallington next week. Anybody know if they’ll let you do multiple transactions on one appointment? I tried to book a second appointment but the system won’t let you book two.

FYI - Unistrut does make a 2 wheel trolley but the 4-wheeler will keep the hook from deflecting when you try to hang something. For hanging MTB's in a small space, the key seems to be turning the handlebars at a 45 degree angle...like the Yakima Hanover or Lolo rear racks. The problem is...

This thread has me thinking about finally re-jiggering my garage storage. SteadyRack looks great but I need to hang like 10 bikes of all different wheel sizes and types. I think I'm going to build a hanging "meat rack" system using hooks on a steel channel with hooks on rolling trolleys...

Never heard of Xert until today. Sounds like a breath mint. Logos and branding are a hot mess. But....I’m all for analytics to tell me how I can train even less than I did before.

I’ve got one. Never ridden. I’ll PM

I took the exam last fall. The questions are indeed as dumb as they come. When I registered for the exam they sent a link to this course review: Everything you need to know for the test is in that 20 minute video.

Snow is gone but the ticks are back and hungry. I pulled a couple off myself and the the doggos after a short walk yesterday.

Some day we will say this about mid-size unibody SUVs.

Fly then rent. Or drive your personal car then rent a RV once you arrive. It's really nice having an extra vehicle so you don't have to break camp every time you want to do a day trip or get groceries. We have rented through Outdoorsy. Smooth process each time but make sure you vet the...

I have Terreno Dry in 38. As I recall they seem not to have great traction on steep stuff. Also the side knobs are not confidence inspiring. Maybe I’ll give em another try

It's been a hot minute since I bought CX tires and its boom time for 40c+ gravel offerings. What's the new hots? Looking for something that rolls ok on road but works well in a CX-bike-as-a-MTB situation. Something that would rip at 6 mi, but that you wouldn't curse on the ride back home...

The Great Backyard Bird Count starts tomorrow. We're planning on doing this with the kiddos. https://www.birdcount.org/ "Participating is easy, fun to do alone, or with others, and can be done anywhere you find birds. Simply watch birds for 15 minutes or more, at least once over the four days...

Literal "shit hits the fan" moment right there. Anybody here running Home Assistant for automation?

I'm just realizing how strange it is that an actual bicycle is first gaming console I have ever owned.

https://www.strava.com/activities/4730911873 This particular edition got really super lazy mid-race. Zwift tells me my FTP is 4.04 w/kg which may be high but lets go with that (it was something like 4.4-4.5 back in the training days so 4 seems reasonable). @60.3kg that puts FTP at 244w. Not...

will order. Thx. Funny thing, Polar. Back in the day, Polar owned the HR market for bike & running but I haven't thought seriously about buying anything from them in over a decade. Actually, I'm a little surprised to see they are still in biz. Around ca. 2003 I got me one of them fancy...
