Hi Terry! You’ve inspired me to start playing in traffic! Without your videos, I would still be stuck on trails and in bike lanes. Now I upset every driver in my town and they all call me “big shredda.” My FTP has increased by 300 W and I got a gf. Now I’m on a mission to steal all the Strava segments but in oncoming traffic. I wish that the wahoo element roam ™️ would track my civil disobedience so I could share it with you.

[@ImBigBossNotSeanConnery]

Is there even a point for nyc bike lanes to exist? I see cars there parked so often, it seems like these drivers are using it like a parking lot 😂😂😂 You even see entire bike lanes covered by them sometimes.

[@Slash90ita]

[@jerebenitez8542]

Also, who puts them next to where cars park? Do people not know that you need to open the doors to get in or out of them? They're designed to be dangerous lol

[@drewdailey8631]

and then drivers get mad when you don't ride in them...

[@c8ake]

@@jerebenitez8542 its generally people running into stores "quickly" or delivery drivers.

[@ImBigBossNotSeanConnery]

@@drewdailey8631 Facts! 💯 I hate when they get mad at you for that reason. They wanna act like we should stay in our place but they're not even willing to stay out of ours. So you can use the bike lane but cyclists are not allowed to use the drive way, even if bike lane is blocked by cars or a delivery truck? They sometimes even honk at you so aggressively for that nonsense. One time, this driver honked at me even though I was going more than 30 mph one time. Like, seriously? This isn't a high way, you should not even be going faster than me in the first place. I also hate the drivers that make a sharp turn without turning on their blinkers. A mistake like that can seriously end someone's life in an instant. These drivers do not care about human life, some of them should not even be allowed to drive anymore.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” theodore roosevelt.

Hey Terry B. I bought my son a 6ku urban track because we already have bikes and I didn’t want to spend a ton on something he might not like. Do you or anyone on here have any suggestions on decently priced upgrades, in case he does like riding a fixed gear? Things like a better chainring, crank, brakes, etc. unfortunately, I’m no bike expert.

[@tintorras01]

Every upgrade depends on what the bike already has, but for starters, invest in a good chain, any wide KMC is good enough, foot retention, depends on the preference, wether your son wants cages, straps, or clipless. Check out Zach Gallardo here on KZbin, the dude makes a ton of videos on that topic

[@exquizit_d]

@@tintorras01 Awesome, thanks! I think I'll invest in those two, the chain and perhaps straps. I think I'm just paranoid that this bike was so cheap, that in my mind something's gonna fail after a week.

[@tintorras01]

@@exquizit_d Well i have a US $250ish fixed gear and it's the most reliable bike I've had, not because of the parts but because of how much I look after it. keep it clean, bolts tight but not overtorqued, grease were it requires, tyres well inflated to avoid flats, chain lubricated and nicely tensioned to avoid dropping it, and it will be a good if not better ride

[@aswtx75]

I saw a KZbin video about wheel weight and whether heavier wheels were slower, and they showed that the weight of the wheel doesn’t matter for the very reason you stated. It’s slow to start but you roll longer so you get that energy you put into the wheel back. The key though is you can’t brake much. You lose all the energy you put into getting the wheel moving when you brake. Even going up hill the weight of the wheel doesn’t matter as much as you would expect, especially if you are going to be going downhill afterwards.

[@SkepticalLlama]

I've wondered about this!
