    I also live five minutes from the beach. It's either in your soul, or it's not.

    It depends how deep it is. I have been able to power through short stretches of loose sand, but it had a packed base. Beach sand, no way. Plenty of people ride 4" analog fatties on the beach by deflating their tires, but adding the weight of the drive system has to make it challenging.

    Watching the peloton - Professional Road Racing thread 2026

    From what I have seen so far, there are maybe four sprint stages in the race. These days, though, the best sprinters can climb, so we shall see. Mads is on the start list. Visma must think that Fabio isn't ready yet, as I don't see him on the start list.

    Yes, that is a good team for that race. I'd like to see Wout in yellow for a while. UAE is giving the "1" to Almeida, even though Tadej is racing. It may not mean anything, or maybe they will work for him for any number of reasons.

    Right, but PON and Giant are conglomerates with many brands. I was referring to a single brand.

    It sounds like you were not properly fitted for your bike. The first issue that you may or may not have with adjusting the bars is how much slack did the bike builder leave in the hoses and cables that go through the stem? If they are not long enough, it's a significant amount of work and...

    I had planned to ride long today, but Mrs. Stomp informed me that our dinner plans had changed and I would not have the time, so I decided, if you can't ride long, ride hard. 52 miles, 3:20 ride time with dozens of stops, Eco set at 80w max. I did a bunch of intervals when the road was clear of...

    We have sold about a half dozen Mogs this year. Very popular.

    Did you buy from a US dealer, and if so, which one? Congrats and welcome.

    Right, but it's all "friends and family", not private equity investment majority.

    Specialized's Mike Sinyard partnered with Merida (Centurion, Miyata) in the early 2000's, and stayed a majority shareholder and corporate leader of Specialized until 2022. I don't know if he still holds a stake in the company. It could be Pretty Woman, or maybe he simply retired. Trek is still...
