There were a bunch of asshats out on the roads and trails today. Riding fancy carbon bikes and wearing black kits, passing people with impunity.

I’m not sure you know the difference betweeen cheating and sabotage or general f’ing around. Bless your heart.

I hope those cheaters come to happy hour to claim their prizes.

Why do you hope that? Do you have big plans for them? Do tell.

Help me, brother. They’ve caught me and I fear I’ll never taste beer again.

Have you not met Sarah Bee?

No. Though I am well acquainted with Sarah Lee.

This challenge confuses me. Why does it start in March? Why does the imperial version have a metric climbing requirement, while the metric version has an imperial climbing requirement?

Building your own doesn’t take all that much time, money or skill. I bought a ’70s Fuji off craigslist for $75. Take off the derailleurs and (shifter) cabling. All you really need is a rear wheel, cog, lockring, and chain, which can be obtained from the internet. Put on the rear wheel with fixed cog and add a chain. Use the inner chainring on the existing double and you are set to go.
You may have the adjust the brakes when you change the rear wheel for both rim width and caliber length if you changed from 27″ to 700c.

I bet everyone was assuming the OP wanted something nice.

I made the mistake of googling this and now I’m creeped out.

I think breathing is less important than pedaling. Seriously, if you have to coast to catch your breath, just hammer harder and take care of the breathing at the next natural break.

I’ll just leave this here.

Smaller cog is the answer here.

Seriously. What, do you skip leg day even on ride days?

One must become a ninja oneself. The rider will just suddenly notice they now have lights and reflectors and a vague memory of a slight breeze and a faint shadow.
