just publishes your training habits to the world which is kinda creepy
You can lock down those settings, so you’re able to use the data to benefit your personal training.
I’m part of a club that uses Strava to organize rides, but what Strava is doing will impact every other app that syncs with Strava, and that’s just a major PITA.
Best option is probably to use something other than the Strava app to record activities and keep backups up the activities locally.
The problem really isn’t people looking for an alternative to Strava, it’s that so many other apps rely on Strava, so people may need to look for multiple alternatives to other apps, just because of what Strava is doing.
This move guarantees that I’ll never pay for Strava. Ever.
Are those still standard lithium-ion? I wonder if silicone-carbon batteries will make it to these types of battery cells (and 18650, and 21700… ). They’re already being used in smartphones to give them greater capacity in the same (or smaller) form factor: https://www.tomsguide.com/news/forget-lithium-ion-worlds-first-silicon-carbon-battery-blows-that-tech-away
Everything is allowed when you have zero enforcement.
If a cyclist clipped one of those, our city would remove the bike lane!
This image would be more believable if the truck was parked about two feet onto the road, so it blocks the sidewalk and any bike lane that might be there.
That happens a lot where I live, and I especially love the ones with trailer hitches inconspicuously sticking out in the bike lane so it can break your shin.
Some people just hate their family so much that they’d rather be working 80 hours a week, and go through great lengths to justify it.

The reality of everything in this world is that if you have to wait for things to be perfect, you’ll be waiting forever.
Sure, cycling infrastructure isn’t great in North America. And some places (like, Ontario, Canada) have actively hostile campaigns against cyclists and remove any safety implements that have been established.
But if we don’t get on our bikes, it only proves that “nobody wants to cycle”, and the infrastructure will never get built.
And really, it’s not even about infrastructure anymore. We had a 13-year-old killed on cycling infrastructure because a driver ignored a stop sign.
We (like the entire world) need to make driving so inconvenient that it becomes the last choice to get around. Only then will people who 100% need to drive be behind the wheel. And because they need to drive, maybe they’ll pay attention to what they are doing.
I do sympathize with people who are afraid or put off by the risk of cycling in some places. I do get it, and there are areas where I live that I avoid cycling through. But I do cycle with the mindset that drivers are all idiots who aren’t paying attention and/or want to run me over. So even when I have the right of way, I assume that drivers will not acknowledge it.
Carbon is not a good choice for a commuter bike. If you’ve got it locked up and someone else’s bike falls onto yours, the frame could be toast.
Wind chills reached minus 36 Fahrenheit (minus 38 Celsius) that night in January 2022 as the family from India set out on foot to meet a waiting van.
Someone didn’t want them to survive.
… this means cutting corners on environmental assessments for the last vestiges of rural land in the GTA. The proposed route is set to raze 2,000 acres of farmland, pave 400 acres of Greenbelt land in Northern Vaughan, and disrupt 220 wetlands.
Wanting to make his buddies rich aside, the destruction of this land is by far the most insidious part of his plan. This is land we will never get back if it’s turned into another highway.
I wish the “Con” in Conservative meant “Conservation” rather than “con job”!
Not really surprising when all food is so processed and pumped full of all kinds of bullshit, from high fructose corn syrup to preservatives to you name it.
No. I refuse to blame those foods for people being fat.
I’m an amateur endurance cyclist, and during peak summer riding, I can eat junk food all day (literally from 5 am to midnight, multiple times an hour) and still end up in a calorie deficit.
It’s actually really hard to gain weight when you’re active, and those junk foods are very common with anyone who does endurance sports (or really any sport that requires high-calorie input over a sustained period). This is why sports nutrition products are basically pure sugar with some electrolytes sprinkled in there.
The problem is that people are eating junk food (jet fuel for our bodies) as if they were athletes. If you’re sitting on your ass all day and pounding back 4000 calories of junk food, yeah, you’re going to be fat.
Now, are those healthy foods? Absolutely not. But if you view food as fuel and nutrition, you can have a healthy relationship with “junk food”, too.
Miller and this guy. Two confirmed Nazis… this is going to end up great. /s
Please, someone uninstall this version of the game!
My guess is pressure-cooking, specifically with an instant pot (which is near BIFL).
Brilliant! That worked!
If we do, this virus will make covid look like child’s play, apparently.
From the Lectric site:
“Every XPedition 2.0 purchase is backed by a full U.S. customer service base and a 1-year warranty.”
I honestly can’t take any vehicle company seriously if they warranty their vehicles as if they were a children’s toy.
Such a bummer.
For sure, a belt drive aluminium bike would be way easier to manage. I’ve got to work with what I have.
I finished coating the inside of my steel frame for the second year. No signs of internal rust when I inspected it, except for the bridge of the chainstay.
For some reason, my fender doesn’t cover this hole, so wheel spray goes directly into it. 🤔
Replaced all bolts with SS, packed marine grease in front of any bearings, and made sure that all rustable parts have either a bit of oil or grease on them.
hot waxed chain with no drip wax ever and a bottle of 99% isopropyl that I use to flash off the water.
Can you elaborate? This will be my first year with waxed chains, and your method seems interesting.
Do you just wipe the waxed chain off after returning home, then hit it with 99% isopropyl alcohol?
How many km between immersion waxes?
They’d need to look up from their phones, first.
