I took the Maple Leaf Express in business class both to and from New York as a Canadian passenger just a few months ago and it is NOT a pleasant trip. I would only ever recommend it if it were an overnight where your information is checked before boarding. I would have flown if the person I with wasn’t apprehensive about flying.

We just like to jump to extremes all the time.
I remember some time ago the newspaper ran a headline saying you might burn more calories watching football vs. actually playing it
The reason being that watching a match you're invested in elevates your heart rate for a solid 120 minutes (match+break) vs playing where you'll catch your breath every here and there and take a 30 min break.
Obviously that's probably never gonna happen but tabloids here are very "So you're saying it COULD happen?"

>But subsequent studies, such as a 2020 paper published in the Journal of Clinical Urology on data from 8,000 male cyclists, failed to find a link between cycling and increased risk of prostate cancer.

>One such study, published earlier this year on over 50,000 men, found that men who exercise regularly, including cycling, have a reduced chance of prostate cancer compared to those who don't.

>The Swedish study, published in January, found men who undertake regular cardiovascular exercise had a third lower chance of developing prostate cancer.

I only read the parts that I want to believe.

still the fact is this super healthy guy who must've lived 100years died so early. I gave up on my bike, will sell it or break it, just don't want to ride anymore, running is more fulfilling.
You might say it was genetical, but the amount of training he did to win olympics 6 times should've given him a ten times immunity from any problems with reproductive system, but it turned to be otherwise, nature didn't make that area pressure-resistant, just like it didn't make our faces to sit on them. Nature has put reproductive organs in most safe place surrounded by "airbags". We should not sit on our dicks, balls, prostate.

Not a bikefag so forgive the dumb questions.
I just recently started a job and I only need to commute to the train station & back. The drive's not long at all but my car is a shitty beater with expensive problems beginning to crop up. I was thinking of a bike but I'm a fatfuck and the path needs to go up and over a hill so I was thinking of an ebike. There are places to stow your bike while riding the train but there have been cases where like 10 bikes were in the same train, there was just a huge stack of bikes and nowhere to put them, so a folder would be kinda nice. With that context let me ask my questions:
1. Anyone have this Lectric XP Lite 2.0 suggested earlier? How is it? I'd really like an affordable folding ebike, so the Lectric seems perfect, I briefly looked at folding ebikes but scoffed at the price.
2. There are bike racks outside my workplace and they are monitored but I'd still like a strong chain, how is the security on the included bike lock? Any suggestions for better bike locks?
3. Should I get the fenders or can I just get any random fenders and they will work?
4. Also real newbie question, what's a good helmet if I decide to pull the trigger on one of these.

Any answers or resources for any of these questions would be much appreciated anons.
Also, don't tell me to get a real bike, I work a white collar job and don't want to be all sweaty when I get in.

i have an electric bike ive been riding for 3 years, last week the phase wires for the motor melted together after a steep slow uphill climb
I've had to replace the controller and some other parts
ive got the bike up and running again but now the brakes dont cut off the motor and the throttle doesn't work, the speedometer and odometer don't work properly either, neither is giving an accurate read out
the controller came with a connector for a brake light, which i haven't connected, i dont have one, im wondering if not having the brake light connected will cause the circuit to be not connected and cause the motor cut out to not function, i have no idea though
as for the speedo and odo i wonder if ive damaged the hall sensor when the wires melted

If you don’t want your bike stolen, just paint it pink. No nigga is gonna be caught riding a pink bike. Better yet, put some hello kitty stickers on it, maybe some MLP and barney stickers too

Or just start looking for prosecutors who will put bike thieves in jail and otherwise enforce penalties for theft instead of treating criminals like victims, so people have to stop changing how they live just to avoid becoming a victim of crime.

Compared to how I sit on my current bike, I wish the handle bars were closer to me be about the length of my hand. What change in bike geometry am I looking for to achieve that?
I can't post pictures because someone on my ISP got it blocked but I had a size L of this bike and I'm wondering if a size M would bring the handles closer to me.

you can buy a stem with less reach, you can buy more compact bars with less reach, you can unwrap the bars, loosen the brifter clamp and reclamp them a little closer to you. you could tilt the bar upwards a little, but that's only good for a few mm reach.

Anyone work for Lime/Bird/Whoever? Any numbers that these share programs are a success? They had them in my distance suburb satellite, and lasted maybe a year. I used a bike share one way on Chicago after taking the train from Milwaukee. Anyone else love the grossness of handles and seats you can't imagine the filth of? How many units have you seen on their sides/not at docks/in canals. Are the another scam/handout band aid on the cancer of car dependency?
