My only advice if for you to lighten up* and stop being so defensive about your heavy-ass bike.



*Get it? Lighten up? It's a pun! Because your bike is heavy!
This made me laugh. Maybe I am insecure and defensive.

By the way, it was a nice conversation for the most part (except for him poor mouthing my bike). He told me of a scenic training route he takes around a nearby lake that I may actually try and ride it using my heavy-ass bike.
