Jose Gonzalez played an excellent show at UCSD tonight! It was the perfect weather for an outdoor show.

When I'm in my bike garage and see someone ride by, I'm like "hey you there, I ride bikes too!" like a big ol dork.

I feel like the work phrase "I'm flagging this" or "Thanks for flagging this" is everywhere now, and people have picked it up verbally from AI's overused responses.

and to add, the bench mounted bike repair stand was a game changer for me, didn’t have room for a stand up

Damn right too. Next time you best put that bike on a trainer in the back of my Ford Raptor, and pedal as I drive us literally into the entrance of the store.

I once had to park like two entire blocks away from a store. It was awful using my legs like that, and I wrote my city council immediately.

If I could filter out all posts that aren't about bikes, walking, mass transit, and dogs, I would. oh and mexican food.

Thanks to the amazing @carmendarlene.bsky.social for helping me through a tough day. And holy hell, she introduced me to Indian raita just now. So amazing. Anyone else tried this?

Def send pics as it takes shape. And yeah, I had to go with a black GRX crankset. Needed my silver one for another build, and this was the only easy and affordable way to get lower 2x gearing up front

Was reading about those fancy magnet-laced spokes with no holes. Feels like magic!

yep! Like I said, beautiful on the outside. On the inside, entire floors are sealed off for mold remediation..... 🫠

Whoa! Old school. I finally got on board just 3 years ago. Took a few tries to get comfortable with sealant and mounting. After that, now never going back to tubes.

I think you'll be very pleased after the sticker shock wears off. Running my 35s tubeless and they are a joy to ride.

It does! I love those overhangs. Birds do too, excellent spots for nests underneath

Best solution is clearly to just leave the car idling 24/7. Start/Stop eliminated completely.

My highly subjective and non-rigorous research findings draw the same conclusion. Switching to GP5000s was a game changer. And then the 35mm TR version even more so.
