Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

It's better to approach your followers with a carrot rather than a stick.

Are you a full muffin or just a muffin top? This is important to this thread.

I could reconsider if they introduce LoCal Infantnuggets®.

Soft rear tire for 20 miles. I think it's yet another faulty presta valve, which do appear to have a failure rate of 5% or so.

Do you not pump it up before taking off? I air mine up each night when I get home from the ride so the morning doesn't greet me with sadness.

fwiw - I'm down about 5-6lbs since I started riding... still got about 20-25 to go so i get where I want to be, which is no where near being at a tour competitive weight... I want/need to be in the 175-185 range...

Duh.

120 lbs psi when I left. 60 lbs when I got back. But if it will hold 60lbs that means it probably doesn't have a puncture. I think it's a flakey presta valve. I pumped it up earlier, let's see if it holds 100+ lbs sitting in the garage for 12-24 hours.
