No. I just like to ride dirt and pavement on the same bike. I raced (MTBs) a million years ago (when I lived in California), but have no desire to do any sort of competitive riding.

FYI, there’s a “trading post” where you can trade shit and people are looking for things like 27" alloy rims

Many people would consider these things when going to their first group ride on a road bike, but not everyone would discuss them out loud, let alone on a blog. I think most of us would keep fears like this to ourselves (probably out of fear of embarrassment) and do what we felt was necessary.

This song came up on shuffle during my ride today. I thought about how much I was enjoying my cheap aluminum frame, carbon fork, brifters, and 23mm tires.

Thanks, Lovely Bicycle!

[Cool site](http://bikefancy.blogspot.com/). Just a bunch of photos of badass women who ride in Chicago. Makes its point without hitting you over the head with it.

Not sure what you mean, but there is dildo store called Dildo King here and they do advertise with massive banners and tractor trailers. They really seem to have corn holed the market.[/quote]

FTFY Sorry I’m late.

Whats the point? That some people who ride bikes are pretty girls? Just another pointless “pretty girls doing things” blog. It’s about a half step away from the fix fix fix.

At first it looks like yet another Copenhagen tribute blog, but I like that not all of them are on fancy bikes (a surprising number of Huffys and Murrays!), that not all of them are dressed in fancy clothes, and that not all of them are young or stylish. Not necessarily my thing, but it works on its own terms and it’s not a fetish site. It’s also an actual resource—if you want to know what kind of bike to ride and what kind of clothes to wear to get around in Chicago in winter, you could do a lot worse than looking through these pictures.

Want:
