What happens when you elect the alligator to drain the swamp it lives in? Such a mystery. 🤔

The reason behind the buffalo’s attack on the trackers remains unclear>

Well, just a wild guess, but “These creatures are shooting at me and want to kill me” sounds like a pretty good reason.

Yay! Well done!

The tires, mostly. I had one of the early mountain bikes back in the 80s and kept a wardrobe of tires for it. (This was when there was a lot more choice for 26" wheels). The 1.75" moderately knobby ones were for daily commutes, the smoother 1.375" for weekend camping trips with the touring club, the chunky 2.25" knobbies were for the rare occasions when I actually used it as a mountain bike. On Friday night I would swap over for whatever I planned to do that weekend, then change back on Sunday night. I got to be really fast at tire changes after a while.

I use a pump sometimes, but the Flextail is a lot faster.

When my better half started having prostate problems, he found that SMP saddles worked best. He ended up with the Glider model on one bike and a Stratos on another.

A long ago clubmate of mine would disagree. She was launched headfirst through the passenger side window of a car that abruptly turned left in front of her. Her helmet was demolished, but her only injury was a dislocated shoulder. She brought the remains of the helmet to the next club meeting to show us.

I just bought a new one. Guess I better check to see if it passed. Edit: it gets 5 stars. Specialized Align ll.

Does anyone else remember those helmets from the late 80s/ early 90s where they left off the plastic skin and just used the foam with a lycra covering? I still remember seeing Curt Harnett’s shatter all over Glenmore velodrome when he crashed in a sprint race. He sat on the track apron for a moment, brushed the remaining chunks of foam out of his hair, then went looking for another helmet so he could continue in the competition.

Is it wrong to hope that he someday finds himself destitute and homeless?

Given the MAGAt’s current obsession with drag queens and trans women using women’s washrooms and locker rooms, it’s right up to date.

Not always. I’ve gotten a few from women.

At the moment my dream bike is the Circe Morpheus tandem. My better half started having balance problems a few years ago and had to give up riding after a long lifetime of cycling. He gets bored riding on a trainer indoors and wishes he could join me. In the front recumbent seat of the Morpheus, he would have a low center of gravity and a clear view. Unfortunately, the price is a bit more than we can afford, between currency exchange rates, shipping, and import duties.
