Re: I'm a tart
and a cannondale T200 tourer when we had lockdown back in 2000? foot and mouth. it snapped after a month or so.
swapped for a specialized sirrius pro, which also snapped.
there may be more.

Re: Saddles
mike, i had a period of swapping saddles almost every ride. then i got a heads up off a bloke who had prostate cancer.
he told me to try a ISM adamo saddle.
i now have them on my 3 bikes, and they are a revelation.

Re: Who’s appreciating riding their bike?
i struggle a bit from time to time with terrible mood swings and bouts of anger/guilt. if i did not have my bike to ride to get away from people, even loved ones i would not be a nice bloke to live with. so this for me is more of a mental wellbeing thing than a exercise thing. i ride daily all the t...

Re: Why Fatbike?
enjoyed that.
i dont ride a fat bike, but i do ride a 29+ bike. main reason is that the strength and support from a large tyre/wider rim works fantastic with a much heavier rider like myself.

closing national parks, and imposing fines?
If the national parks were to be closed (if this was possible). could the police start imposing fines to people from outside the area?

Re: Gravel porn
i am with Stu on this. they all look very nice, but oh so uncomfy.
drop the saddle a couple of inch, and add a couple of inch to the steerer and mayby they would be comfy.
