Imagine how much time they'd have lost stopping and putting on the shoes the old fashioned way.

We just got this bike for my wife. https://www.rei.com/product/798566
Aluminum frame, 700c wheels, 7-speed drivetrain, and Northroad-style bars. And not a lot of money (to a bike racer
).

I was. Then I started pricing things out and it was a lot more than my wife wanted to spend on a bike she'd occasionally ride.

got my new Magishine lights all installed. Still letting a couple of them charge. I'm probably gonna go for a little shakedown cruise after the game is over, which will be late, and I'll be tired. I'll see.
The light on my helmet is a little heavy, but not terrible. It'll strengthen my neck muscles. The headlight is freaking bright, and that's not even with the helmet mounted one. It's gonna be awesome.

Ahh. Missed your first post. Just had to post this after I took flak for saying Hopkins was dangerous a few weeks back.

No kidding, not sure why she thought going across the path of oncoming cyclists was a good idea...getting her shoe in should have been the least of her worries.

I rode tonight.
I'm noticing that early in the season, riding was seriously habitual. I'd come home from work, put on my gear, go ride, come home, prep dinner, eat, browse web, sleep.
When I stopped riding, everything went out the window, my bedtime moved from ~11pm to ~3am, simply because without physical exertion I wasn't tired.
Well now it's starting to become habit again, the schedule of my days are starting to fall back into place. My fitness is still ass, but hopefully with some good riding and good resting it'll be back pretty quick.
