>>2075596sweet. did they pull you over?
After a few hot weeks we have about a week of cool windy weather. Taking a few days off riding after getting a tooth pulled at the dentist. Took nearly 25 minutes of repeated drilling and yanking to get it out. I'm surprised my jaw doesn't hurt more. Damn near impossible to keep food from getting in the hole while eating. At least I can flush it out with my water flosser on its lowest setting while holding the wand back a ways.
I didn't ride today, but yesterday I saw a bunch of roadies stopped on the bridge and two of them were squaring off and the more roided up one sort of made a lunge/move at the less roided up one (they were both looking pretty stronk) and the other roadies were trying to pull them apart and be like calm down mang. I left because well, what's the point of standing around rubbernecking like an asshole, it's none of my business but here I am blogposting about it anyway. I imagine one of them almost caused a crash though why else. Maybe one of them said mean things about hookless or TPU.Also last weekend I stopped at a public park/pool thing for some gatorade because I was running out of water and a bunch of middle aged dads had surrounded a middle aged fat guy who had what looked like high end photography gear and he looked fearful/defensive and it looks like they thought he was taking creep shots of the kids and things were looking pretty tense with everyone filming on their phones like it was going on youtube and the fat guy was trying to explain how he had the pictures to prove something (?). I didn't get there early enough to see how it started and I didn't want to end up being a bystander in a viral youtube video so I left. Maybe he got his ass kicked it went viral or maybe the cops showed up and he showed the pics and was exonerated who knows. I don't really want to know.This blog post brought to you by some shitty product you don't care about, use code #schizophrenicfred for 35% off your first month.

>>2076260>>2075437thankstoday went on a 55k trip to test luggage for an upcoming long trip i want to do in a few weeksloaded the bike with 6 days clothing, sleeping, shower, a laptop w. charger stuff, 2 action cameras and a drone, spares, a bit of food and some other things and the only thing that sucked was going up a 25% hill
>>2076350>55kthats expensive
hot
>>2076350it's nice there
Did my second metric century this year. Lowered speed a bit, so HR stayed in zone 2 for longer. Bretty slow, barely over 20 kmh average in urban/semi urban setting, buuuut I didn't feel dead after the ride. Actually felt pretty good. Historically I've ridden my long rides too kinda hard, and been completely broken when I get home.So next time I will do longer slow ride. 120 prolly, then le imperial centry next i guess. Maybe 200km in two months or so. >>2075426Cool purple bike.
>>2076350You need to keep right buddy
>>2076519buddy, can you seriously not tell he's from the UK considering the rocks he visited >>2075426are you from the united states of america perchance?
>>2076524That looks like the American north east in that video. Do you have to screech "on your right" when passing in bongistan?
>>2076713neat
had another chain tension related rear wheel lockup today. i think i have to drill my frame to attach this stupid tensioner better, it keeps fucking sliding around no matter how much i reef on it
>>2076712when you have a stroke on your ride
>>2076712>>2076713Very cool, how come my country doesn't have something like this? Is it because of culture? I refuse to believe that i won't be alive until such infrastructure gets build here
>>2075418It is impossible to suffer wherever you are
