I sometimes try to get into the rotation so I'm not pulling the last mile so I can be fresh for the final sprint. It usually doesn't work out the way I planned.
|
I thought I was getting more and more fit, but today i burned out after 2 miles.
|
ok ill play..
i worked as a bike mechanic at Dicks sporting goods but quit because i got tired of working on lame bikes and keep missing group rides. i have spent twice(almost 3 times) as much on upgrades as i paid for the bike. i am NOT to fat for this sport. i climb better than i sprint but wish it was the other way around. |

I am a terrible speller. Not just a bad one, a horrible one.
One of my most vivid memories from first grade was a time when I couldn't remember how to spell few. That's right, a three-letter word. It simply slipped my mind, which made for a rather embarrassing spelling test. I don't know how the teacher sat there with a straight face. If it wasn't for the spell checker, I'd look extremely illiterate sometimes. i thought i was the only one. i think you could beat me at a spelling bee. ive always been a math guy |

I believe that unless you are getting paid to race, men should never shave their legs...and even then it's pretty silly and has no impact on speed.
who shaves their legs to go faster? after you crash and get some good road rash you will wish you did shave your legs. i also think it looks odd to see hairy legs on bike short /bibs. to each his own i guess. |
+1 to that.
This thread is turning into the Addiction addicts one. |
Ok, ok, this a thought so far. Every time I see those runner/jogger on the bike lane when there's a dedicated jogging/running lane next to it, I feel like running them over with my bike. Yes, a $3000 bike, and I think it's worth it even if total my bike while doing it. So, one of these days you guys read on the news paper that someone got run over by a bicycle, it's most likely me. :D

I really want to shave my legs, but my wife asked me not to, so I didn't.

I'm tired of living and cycling in Australia.

I don't use GPS, own a smart phone or a wireless computer.
And I have no desire for any of them. I do think some of the videos that show a lot of that info are pretty cool. |
I don't really want to go for a ride right now
But I know if I do I will feel better than if I don't so i will go.....eventually. |
-Early on, when I first started cycling, I made the mistake of buying one of those stupid "skort" things with bike shorts attached underneath. I don't know what I was thinking. I'm too embarrassed to ever wear it.
-I put $15 Look Delta pedals on my CAAD 10. |
In the winter, I dress in commuter gear so no one questions why I'm out riding in the bad conditions every day.
I wear underwear under my bibs in cold conditions. |
