>>2073839hope he sees this bro
>>2047065Imagine being a low IQ normgroid that doesn't enjoy bicycles, planes, trains, ships, cars and any form of transportation"pick one side only!!!!" cucks are brain damaged
>>2073849But that post doesn't say one side only, why are you trying to create conflict where none exists
>>2073844And once more.
>>2073923really hope he sees this. then you can be agreeable together.
Post your ride during sundown Post your favorite lights and light setupsDo not: Be a haterTalk shitPost daylight ride photos
>>2058814is it a dumb idea to ride my bike on the road at night in the middle of the country? I wanna start riding to work but when I get done it's like 10pm
>>2073782I do this. Keep a tight schedule so you see mostly the same people, and be visible with a good tail light. Consider using two for redundancy. Maybe avoid Fridays when the drunks are numerous.
>>2073614I found a plethora of knives on a bike path. I like to collect hobo stabbers :)
>>2073782yeah, country drivers are usually worse and more often drunk. however there is less traffic overall so it evens out. but still, get lights. and as tempting as it is to get gorillion watt lumenblasters, they dont actually make you harder to hit
In which we discuss the Bikelighting culture (Fahrradbeleuchtungskultur) of our countries.Here in Germany, because of the Danger, it is not allowed to have a blinking Taillight. This is also the Reason that all emergency Vehicles in the World have blinking Lights. By attracting other dangerous night Vehicles to crash into the Ambulance, instead of the civilian Vehicles, it spares Drivers in smaller Vehicles, where the Occupants are less able to administer emergency self-Aid. This is the Consequence of what we call a „high trust Society“; our culture of Politeness dictates the most Risk to the most capable Roaduser. The same Expectation is extended to Police and Construction Engineers who are paid more for occupational Hazards such as a blinking Light.Do you have a Law about blinking Bikelights in your Country?
>>2070713If you want to bet your life on some dinky little reflectors it's your funeral (literally), I'll continue to use active lighting though because I'm not in the mood to sudoku just to prove a point about the CPSC always being right
>>2070725i want to cause lasting, possibly permanent damage
>>2069996I dont believe it without a link to buy.
>>2072941i was wondering if i could find the same chink OEM one somewhere but i actually found a review of the exact brand i foundhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovt3nyL0Rz0and an american retailer having a SERIOUS fuckin gigglehttps://workshoptools.com/products/farpoint-two-pack-rechargeable-350lum-headlamps-flhr35206
>>2070556you should have both desu. idk why car and bike light manufacturers alike stopped making lenses have reflectors in them so it both acts as a reflector AND diffuses the light so you dont just blind oncomingengineers are all incompetent now and i genuinely believe that the current workforce is objectively stupider than it has ever been

>>20566855pBpHe should stay home.
>>2071627Eh some cats are fine with it especially when they're young or if they're accustomed. When my cat was smol I used to take her to the park on a leash and she didn't mind much
Lets recommend each other literature specifically about the design and engineering behind your favorite locomotive or piece of rollingstock.
Definitely on top of my shopping list.
>>2073789Fixed
Is there still a fixie subculture anywhere out there, or am I showing my age? Im still enamored with the whole “fixie punk” aesthetic. Considering jumping back on social media is there are still people doing this. But I realize its a niche subculture from the early 2000’s thats been made fun of since day 1.
>>2069482>Am I considered a fixie guy if I never pedal backwards, and ride my bike like a single speed with extra long braking distance?You're still a single speed rider but that's ok you guys are alright
I wonder if the guy with the bianchi (can't call him bianchi-kun) has it fixed
>>2033719Everyone can ride a fixie, but few can ride one good. You're the former.
>>2033678Uh what year do you think it is
>>2038471You sound generally unpleasant, maybe they are picking up on that.
What is the intent behind statements like "I'm not a cyclist, I'm just a person who gets around by bike"?At a surface level it is obviously meant to (proverbially) throw other cyclists under the bus, but to what end? Would it somehow appease the anti-bike people if the person "blocking traffic" didn't agree to be referred to by the word "cyclist"?
>>2000001I just don't want to be associated with obnoxious lycra clad biker dads
>>2071358It's really just this.
First nice day in a while and all the pinarello customers are out. I think you know the kind I mean.Starting to see why everyone hates roadies and I'm a roadie myself.
>>2071358>>2071407too bad, you are
>>2071358>>2071407>>2071788Pickme cyclists are a laugh riot
A 17-year-old German teen has been living life as a modern nomad, leaving his parents’ house to live on trains and travel all over his country.While most 17-year-olds are only just beginning to consider the idea of leaving the nest, Lasse Stolley has already been on his own for over a year and a half. Convinced that his school studies were already behind him, he convinced his parents to allow him to leave their home in Fockbek, Schleswig-Holstein to embark on a unique train-hopping adventure. It took a lot of convincing, but they eventually agreed, and for the last year and a half, the German teen has essentially been living on trains, traveling all over his home country, working as a self-employed coder during the day, and sleeping on night trains at night.“I’ve been living on the train as a digital nomad for a year and a half now,” Lasse told Business Insider. “At night I sleep on the moving Intercity Express (ICE) train and during the day I sit in a seat, at a table and work as a programmer, surrounded by many other commuters and passengers. I travel from one end of the country to the other. I’m exploring the whole of Germany.”He gave into his wanderlust in 2022, selling most of his possessions and packing what was left in a 36-liter backpack that he has been carrying with him ever since. Minimalism and resisting the urge to acquire new stuff are an essential part of his lifestyle, as he needs to take everything with him wherever he goes. It’s not always easy, but he has found a way to make it work.https://www.odditycentral.com/news/german-teenager-left-parents-home-to-live-exclusively-on-trains-for-the-last-year-and-a-half.htmlhttps://www.businessinsider.de/leben/bahncard100-17-jaehriger-lebt-seit-jahr-2022-in-den-zuegen-der-bahn/
>>1986079He got off the train thougheverbeit?
>>1986100of course they have the internet, they have Obama phones. Lefties can’t give away the hard earned money of the middle, and lower middle class, fast enough to useless drug addicts and hobos.
>>2071201damm, I forgot about that meme
>>1986079>17 years old>not living at homeThis must be fake news. He's of the sel-important/coddled generation. Worse than hippies.
>>2071703He's 19 now though
Post your shitbikesssss
>>2069904If you're so smart then explain it to me.
Over 25 years old. So shitty that the vbrakes use cantilever brake pads.It was gifted by a local farmer to a friend of mine (with a lot of issues) who lived at my house for a few months. The friend is long gone. This bike outlived many people i have known, and it will other.
>>2070705The fagmobile hahahahaha
>>2070705Now this is a fucking shitbike
>>2070705uhhhhhh that quill stem is set dangerously high
Anyone here work on them?What's it like?How did you get the job?Is it any fun?How's the actual car amenities? Do you get meals, beds, or is it just a rolling office?
I am a railway fan from Moscow. In my free time, I make videos of trains, subways, and transportation. Ask questions about my activities, and the transport of my country, stereotypes, in general, everything that is interesting, I will try to answer.

Been to some tri events. They call it the yellow monsoon. Mechanics say the bike shed after a race reeks of piss.
>rim brakes reeeeeeee carbon reeeeeee All we need is a closeup of the pristine drivetrain causing reeeee and we'll have /n/ bingo
>>2073539It seems like the pissing is something of a draw for them. Triathletes seem like really weird and culty people. I wouldn't be surprised if there is a lot of overlap with crossfit practioners.
>>2073530just whip it out n pee while riding
yes I also piss myself in training
>wears a rolex daytona while driving, just like paul newmanFine>wears a rain coat when it's raining, just like gene kellyFine>wears gym shorts at the gym, just like wilt chamberlainFine>wears aviators just because, just like val kilmer in top gunFine>wears tacticool ballistic nylon cargo pants when working, just like steven seagal in under siegeFine>wears cycling shorts when cyclingWhoa wait WHAT NOOOOO YOU CAN'T DO THAT YOU TRYHARD WHAT IF SOMEONE THINKS YOU'RE LANCE ARMSTRONG AND YOU WOULD HAVE TO TELL THEM YOU'RE NOT A PROFESSIONAL RACING CYCLIST THEN THE UNIVERSE WOULD EXPLODE NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
>>2067899>Are you mentally ill?It’s quite clear, don’t you think?

>>2067330Or you could have 23 watches. Buy what you want, nobody can stop you as long as you didn't impregnate them.
>>2067330If you can't buy it two without any saving then you can't afford it.
>>2064062Aviators are dated. Get you some Oakleys.
is it possible to just a plague-infested ship to fuck off indefinitely?

>>2072721>>2072686A few years ago I watched a bunch of her videos. She almost convinced me that a cruise would be enjoyable. Almost...
>>2072610People just love breathing on, and getting breathed on by strangers. Its the premiere human identity at this point.
>>2073051crazy how people now think it's worse to have someone cough in the same room as you than it is to have ten different dudes and a variety of animals nut in each and every one of your holes

Gonna go on a trip to Bulgaria, I want to see their cursed looking steam locos and aging fleet.
>>2073155Is it Bulgaria that has that narrow gauge train run entirely by children?
>>2073432Children's railway
>>2073432No, thats hungary. There's 2 amusement parks in bulgaria that is literally just a narrow gauge railway, both are not operated by children.
