That's certainly the case, and it's a pretty clever solution. Instead of installing a rear freewheel or fixed cog, this person just kept what was there and was able set it at the ratio he or she...

I will miss that light as well--Fairfax has way too many lights that won't change for a cyclist.

I will also miss bombing down Cedar from Gallows/Electric with the reduced traffic that made it...

That's 6 Strava segments; loki could have 6 KOMs! [love the username]

I rode around the traffic island from all three directions this afternoon. I actually like it and feel it's an improvement. Other than the silly left-turn arrow coming from the west, which is similar...

Not a strawman; a strawman would be if I took someone else's argument and distorted or simplified it in order to argue against it more easily than I could the actual point being made. I simply made a...

"Strawman"--I don't think you understand what that term means, and apparently you get insulted far too easily. No one is going to run over the center island because the arrow is poorly done, and...

The arrows are poorly drawn, but overall, it's no different from the little traffic islands designed to slow down traffic on places like Key. Motorists complain about those because they have to slow...

Ah, on reread, could be. I thought that since he had been rear-ended, the car rack had been damaged or destroyed.

If you're still looking for a trunk rack, I have a Thule you can have. It's pretty adjustable and worked for Subaru Impreza, Honda Fit, and a Subaru Crosstrek. Was able to get it to work with a...

Way late, but I threw a few in. Saw the article on ArlNow.

I haven't been by here much lately b/c not much has been going on, then I got logged out and could never seem to log back in. It's the...

I've seen it in Massachusetts (Cape Cod) where two trails merge, but not locally.

I doubt it was the MJ; more likely the press-fit bottom bracket on that Trek.

That's a beautiful bike/color. It's rare that "surprise me" works out so well.

The guy in Roanoke who built my custom steel bike actually shipped the frame to Colorado for painting because he was...

Tangentially related perhaps, but I've found a really nice alternative to the W&OD through there up to the point where the trail runs along Route 9 near the traffic circle. I'm sure some others know...

Early mornings seem to be when folk go out thinking it's cooler, but I find the humidity in the morning worse so go out later in the day (confession that I love hot weather, so YMMV). Bonus is fewer...

I did this through 311 last year (I think; maybe the year before?) when one of the trees kind of fell over the path, leaving a tunnel with poison ivy at the end. They came out and cleared it...

I have blown tubes like that when the bead was too far out, but not when it was too far in. My heart stopped racing, eventually, though the ringing in the ears will never cease.

Doggo already...

I'm not sure if Twitter is the cause of everything wrong with the world or is merely a symptom of it, but it is surely one of the two.

Today I Learned that if you have a tire that won't seat properly, you can overinflate it and the bead will (may) pop right into place.

Had a new 33 mm Challenge Gravel Grinder that just would not...

Tons more cyclists on the roads, including lots of kids and families, but he's right about the vehicle speeds. Other bad motorist behavior (passing too close, horn blowing, not yielding the...

The plus is you get to try that wavecell thing. I was tempted, but I had just recently purchased a MIPS helmet, and also, I think the wave cell would get in the way of the straps I use for the light...

I've been pulling off the trail lately when I get a drafter. Bonus was extra distance during Freezing Saddles.

Wintry Mix(t)es caught them for about 10 minutes once, but then SteveO uploaded all his rides and they pulled away again, so it was a bit of an illusion.

I would not say it's been a failure. I...

Rimas debated for a while whether to Photoshop a reflector over Peanut's privates before posting, but in the end decided that a bit of discretion was in order.

Yeah, drop bars are the right bars for that bike. I can't see why a shorter stem wouldn't work, but if that's true, the angled seat post might be enough to get you forward an inch or so.
