Just shows you what you're dealing with on Craig's Fail, er uhm, I mean Craig's List.

Igualmente

Why was the original question asked? What does the word "ect" mean? Neither make sense to me.

I suggest you look at the OPs recent threads (at least the ones that have not been deleted by the mods) and draw your own conclusion.

I suggest if you can't handle this thread or the internet in General you have bigger problems than this thread.
As for people telling others to "look up my threads" ive posted 20 times in the last 6 months get over yourselves its not about [you].

There are some serious mal-adjusted lurkers here.

I'm on at least a dozen forums and this is the weirdest.

I believe the above is directed at me. Let's be honest, your recent activity in this forum suggests impulsivity. Clearly there are all types in this place, but if you can't take some ribbing you may want to reconsider. Riding the bike matters more than silliness in bike forums.

Peace.

Usually after every ride, if I can.

If posts about carbon shoes & inner tubes are above your skill set you may want to hang out somewhere else.

The questions don't get any easier.

As for [my] posts they are my business and nobody else's.

Go assassinate someone else's character.

Stop putting them in public forums then.

Also, why on Earth would you consider changing out a perfectly good tube?

znomit

Thanks, we work hard at it!

I just glanced at your posting history, and you have about 200 posts since last August.

RPK79

Tubes typically don't spontaneously start leaking due to age. They'll get trashed another way long before that. I also bring a couple spares on my rides so I could just replace it when I'm "55 miles from home". Granted I don't do a lot of 110+ mile rides. Maybe things are different for ultra-long distance riders like yourself.

CNC2204

I carry one extra at all times except when a do crazy long rides with a Triathlete, with him i carry 2.
Ive been lucky for the most part with flats, i try to avoid them at all cost.
The gas company has been tearing up my street the last month and the gravel & asphalt has tore up my new road tires.

Not too happy with that.

I ride hard and break parts, just wondered how tubes held up.

Best advice i've heard is change tubes with tire changes.

CNC2204

Thanks mom ...

RPK79

Just do what you want and listen to that one guys advice. You're not going to listen to us so stop asking.

CNC2204

Who's "us" ... you mean you or the Posse ?

Hey man do what you want, i don't take the internet too srsly.


Im telling you this forum is "tainted".

I srsly doubt most these guys get out of their moms basement let alone do 150 miles a week.

Forums are about exchanging common interest & ideas about similar experiences.


Not slamming someone because they ask a fuggin question.

FWIW ... $ 0.02

znomit

You should definitely do that then!

But maybe it was posted by one of those tube company shills that frequent the forum.

Doug28450

If you hate this place so much, why do you keep coming back?

RPK79

Us = everyone who posted anything in this thread because their is pretty much a consensus that you use the tubes until they fail you.

I'm pretty sure you do take the internet too seriously.

Meh. I agree we have a rash of CNC threads.

You're probably right. No one one bikeforums actually rides bikes.

CNC2204

I never left, im in my house.

I decide with to let you idiots in my life.

Its my life.


I did 15 miles today in 40 mph wind it was brutal but we have snow in a couple days and it was 70 degrees.

BillyD

I can tell this won't get any better. I'm clairvoyant like that.

OP, you got all the straight answers you're going to get here.
