I have two helmets...so I have a choice for the group rides that require them. The white Bell Slant is about 3-4 years old, looks new, was the last one I wore regularly; the other is a Wally Special...

Yup -- Zantac, this tool gave me indigestion. Your point?

Cyclists already DO -- it's called general tax fund at the municipal and state levels. The various fees attached to cars do next to nothing to pay for the roads. Gas taxes and registration fees for...

Just saw the article about the 'possible' crack-smoking by the honorless Mr. Ford; didn't watch the video, but the 'cover shot' for the video was of a fat, balding man next to a vehicle...which made...

The only way you won't get your money's worth out of the new bike is if it turns out to be a dawg. You get on it and pedal, it gives you joy...you've ALREADY gotten your money's worth.

Give some...

Wow, this story is brutal. Hope they DO catch that psycho.

Maybe it's me, but yeah -- this didn't sound like a commute home after a late shift, this was a small group/training ride. Don't think...

Okay, wreckedmiata, so fun for you is breaking the law; cool, just don't hit one of mine. That WILL bring fun to an end.

Given the choice (which my finances don't), I'd be on two (maybe three)...

Tom S. can answer that, others have done it; I'd recommend "GhostRider88" for a LITTLE continuity...!

FB's advice is fine, as far as it goes; Shimano-compatible components are more susceptible to this than SRAM. Ditto for 'natural' lubricants V. synthetic.

I use Slick 50 One grease on my fingers...

Okay, first you want to parse my comment by inserting "voluntary"; CLUE FOR YOU -- NO ONE, UNDER ANY LEGAL CIRCUMSTANCE, CAN BE REQUIRED TO SPEAK ABOUT ANYTHING AGAINST THEIR WILL; I can SHUT UP at...

Well, if your definition of "high speed cycling" is a sustained 20mph/32kmh pace, I'd have to disagree with you; further, maybe 20mph isn't a sprint speed for YOU...it sure would be for ME, and I AM...

Meeting and perhaps having a discussion with Mikael Colville-Anderson would be an occasion I could relish into my 'rocking-chair years'.

Okay, pretty much all my talking points were covered already -- seriously, good job, folks, you eviscerated this garbage article well. Now, who has HG Wells' number, so I can get the minutes back I...

So, in your P.S., you're telling us not to get our hopes up....lol

I use a Coleman LED flashlight (144 lumens, $20), strapped with elastic to a handlebar mount I made from an old reflector bracket and two brake pads. For a tail light, I like multi-bulb LED's with...

Y'all have no sense of irony.....

I'm SO glad to know that riding a bike is as beset with mortal danger as a heavy construction site; makes me look forward EVEN MORE to getting back on it tomorrow! (You cannot be SERIOUS!)
...

I'm kinda curious as to what these "negatives" are that you speak of....

I was suspicious when I Bing'ed you, and found no obit. Glad you could confirm it!

Don't look to me for donuts -- I've almost TOTALLY quit eating them (chocolate cake donuts still tempt me...).

Glad it worked for you. I was going to suggest cheap spray paint -- IME, better than hair spray, and sets up quicker -- but you solved your problem. If it happens again, though, think about the...

My kids go LOTS of places on bikes -- local parks, the Greenway/MUP (without the ride group), they ride to school on days I can escort them (stupid and aggressive drivers, PLUS we're REAL...

The end of the driveway....

HMM -- this NEVER happens; maybe it's because I ride MTB, but my bike doesn't roll 6 FEET without my noticing a flat. If that happens in the morning, my options are:
...

I will usually see a speed-demon rider on the MUP doing his thing ALONE. The one time I remember 'running afoul of a paceline' was on the road -- the group short-cut a left turn, just about taking...

Which means, to me, that GPS isn't worth a shat.
