    Excuses to Ride

    Speaking of dangerous JS, on that video where you came upon an on ramp type thing and rode right between the merge and the right lane, I felt an anal pucker!!🤣

    Rotor Cleaning

    TY Fooferdoggie! Just for the record it was Fooferdoggie’s wisdom about mineral spirits!!👍😉 As a side bar fooferdoggie reminds me of Snoop Doggy Dog who I prefer to call ‘Sniff Doggie Do’!🤣🤣

    Rotor Cleaning

    🤣 I used mineral spirits once, before riding and some experienced rider gave me advice with wisdom on steroids that mineral spirits is a no no! Soooooo I immediately went out and cleaned again with rubbing alcohol! Fortunately before I rode it and contaminated the pads with mineral spirits! I...

    Excuses to Ride

    That’s a good idea I man!! I have a big supermarket store with a decent riding route, but it has no bike racks! Maybe I can come up with a plan B like you did!🤔

    Excuses to Ride

    That’s a great point and a great topic JS! Here’s a kicker, the CVS I went to that has a great bike route, also did not only NOT have bike racks, but also nothing to lock my bike to, so I walked my bike inside! Now the other CVS that had horrific sidewalks on the route that I’ll NEVER travel...

    Excuses to Ride

    Agree with that all the way! Fortunately two of the 3 busy roads near me have decent sidewalks. One road has sidewalks on both sides, the other just one side. Whenever a route requires either one of those roads I ALWAYS choose the sidewalk option and if I encounter someone walking or riding...

    Excuses to Ride

    Thanks for the post Jed! I would NEVER ride on a road like that without sidewalks! Why? Because my Queen forbids it, and the obvious danger! I would like to comment on the sidewalk subject! We have two CVS Pharmacies near us. I went to one of them with no route issues. I decided to try...

    Rotor Cleaning

    I don’t know enough to take the back wheel off and then tweak it back on correctly. I do like the video instructions tell and put rubbing alcohol on a clean washcloth and wipe the rotors down, CAREFULLY, while ON the bike.😉

    Rotor Cleaning

    I use alcoholic dabbed onto an old washcloth and wipe the rotors! Probably the safest way to prevent the above happening.

    Rotor Cleaning

    Here’s something interesting I’ve found riding my daily exercise route in a flat environment, all side streets with little traffic, about a 25 minute, 6 mile route, I’ve ridden the route enough now that if I use the speed timing is right, and the PAS correctly, the only time I have to use the...

    Rotor Cleaning

    How often do you clean rotors and what do you use? I use mineral spirits.

    Cycling Shorts?

    Ok, you’ve talked me into trying a pair!

    Cycling Shorts?

    After reading all these responses I feel like I probably don’t ‘need’ the cycling shorts/underwear, but I’m also curious to try a pair. My dilemma is, I’ll probably buy and try a pair and then come to the conclusion I’ll need 7 pair because once the weather breaks I see myself riding everyday...
