I would rather do an unmade road like that on the Grasshopper than the Silvio. Nice to get back on tarmac where you can race the MTBs.

Espresso? Is it legal to use coffee as a performance-inducing drug?

It was a dark and stormy night. I was riding alone on a long lonely road. In my mirror I saw a strange shape that seemed to glow with an eerie white light. It was moving incredibly fast. It flew past silently, seeming not to touch the road and it nearly forced me into the ditch. The...

Bloody hell yes! I have always wanted a fairing. Do not give a hoot about the aero, just the brolly.

A consummation devoutly to be wished. If that happened to me I would really feel like Merckx. I am only ever going to be booted out for being too slow.

Add COPD and race with me.

You want a brolly. Is a fairing without sides any good for that? Rain in a crosswind goes sideways.

Do boxers fall over in the required round? I do not know much about cricket, but what about spread-betting? Or ball-tampering? I expect there is something like an equivalent in baseball. The peloton has been dodgy ever since they invented it. Not nice, but if there is money in it, why not...

Yes. I would hardly notice that on either of my bikes.

This discussion has been opened before. Look at the websites of the online shops. You see the components categorized as "road" or "mountain". Mountain ones have clamps that do not fit on road bars. Road clamps do not tighten on mountain bars. The clamp on the boom of my Silvio does not...

I hate getting off and pushing it. I ride up some steep ones and I have COPD, so I go slowly. I could probably walk faster. I got a 38t ring and a 42t cog and learnt to go slow and pedal smooth. This is also a useful skill if you are commuting.

People in the street shout at me about going to sleep while riding. If it is a folder it is like a person who did yoga.

DF can draft behind a 'bent and still see the road ahead.

You should have got a bike trailer and moved everything that way.

I have not been on a DF for years, but I think that if you want to mix DF and 'bent your best bet is Cruzbike. These are the most DF-like 'bents, because of the triangle and because of the way they make you use your upper body. You will get more used to it with mileage, but you may also get it...

Belly-builders are a similar, only in their case it is beer.

They are all going to have to get extra magnets for their speedometers.

Rattle your fillings. Detach your retinas. Massage your kidneys. Worse than that, bend your wheels. I hate bad surfaces.

Drafting

Same here. Maybe I can find the space and the money for one of them there training machines and join you all on Zwift and Discord.
