I went from using a garmin fenix to an oldschool mechanical watch and my stress levels have gone down like you wouldn't believe. The only thing I miss is garmin pay.
Although, it was pretty nice to be able to see which people are lowlife losers on Tinder back in my dating days. They made it very clear how shitty they were when they bashed me for my green bubbles. Saved me a ton of time!
jesus, who hurt you?
- Pope Francis condemns Momika’s actions, saying he feels “angry and disgusted” to see the Muslim holy book desecrated.
isn't this incredibly ironic...
if you ask these people what background radiation is they mostly just stare at you with huge bambi eyes.
thank you! still feels a little bit like riding a tractor with the ultra wide handlebars but I guess people get used to it 😂
Also was it a pain in the ass(literally) to ride on rough surface?
I wouldn't really say literally, but it's definitely a learning curve. I did not expect it to be that technical from the photos I saw beforehand, but it was full of holes and loose sand on some places, and regular ramps of 15%-18%. I could do with an 11-40 instead of the 11-34 it came with rofl.
Can you explain what makes it gravel bike as opposed to a mountain/off-road bike, or are the terms effectively synonymous?
it's like a road bike with wider tires, nothing special - it's much faster on light gravel and pretty decent on pavement as well.
I’m afraid it’s been good and if there is a shift in power, it will just be new assholes with money and weapons, not a revolution.
The wagner group and the guys behind it are supposedly even more radical than putin is - if they get in power, the war on Ukraine will get much, much bloodier very quickly.
not really. the stupid stuff, like nfts, are dying, but the rest is still the same.
me as well - it's all back.
but can you actually register to beehaw? Because I tried days ago, and I still can't log in.
I have to say they are absolutely awesome. In the 4 years I've had it I have never, ever needed to adjust my derailleurs, it's always where it should be, vs. the constant battle of cables stretching and just generally having to tinker with it every couple of months.
I used to have mechanical sram, the one lever shifting was really clever and I loved it, but now I'm back to shimano with di2 - having said that I think i'd be just as happy with electronic sram :)
Riding in a group is a huge help, drafting will save you about 20% of the power that you'd use trying to ride those speeds on your own.
I see PBS Spacetime, I upvote.
