There's like 3-4 settings you can easily find out which position to put it in because you will be unable to ride if it isn't in the right setting.

So the difference between the longest and shortest settings shows the difference between the most and least belt tension - right? They're totally dependent upon each other?

Alone, country roads, scorching sun

Agree. This is my homeland (inner spain), is pretty hot in summer (30ºc-38ºc), I like riding alone along the wheat fields and bulls/cows listening to the cricket/insect sounds. My sister thinks that our land is ugly and dry, of course she said that because she was brainwashed by her friends, the fact is that the country can be beautiful, last month I ride on a day with the bluest sky possible and the fields were golden as fuck, it was really nice riding that amazing rollercoaster of small hills, too bad the road was Syria tier during several km, I will avoid that part in the future. Mountains are kinda far from here, but this year I will finally get my cager license which probably I will use it just for carrying my bike to nice sites.

For training purposes I think the better option is a mixed terrain, or flat with mountains, or pretty hilly to do intervals.

Shimano, Campy, Sram, Microshift - no matter which you pick they all do the same thing with slightly different ergonomics, there's right or wrong answers, just personal preferences.

Gross

Every year around new year I consider registering, then I remember that these fucks don't allow aero brake levers. Maybe if I ever build a bike with non-aero levers.

Practical, efficient, fun, or not horribly slow? No.

But as long as it rolls, it's certainly possible.

There's an actual offence for that in Australia.
Road vehicles with bladed attachments are illegal in some way.

>>1000986
A legacy of The Road Warrior movie, i assume.

I fell for the magic shine meme, after two rides the battery was toast, got a replacement battery and charger, and after three rides it was toast as well.

Cygolite 850 and B&M Ixon I QSpeed Premium up front.
Cygolite Hotshot and B&M LED Line Permanent in back
Tons of SOLAS tape and 3M stealth tape everywhere else

Also; meant to add that yours is pretty sweet, OP.
Would you considering getting a professional one? Always thought the Campy wings would make a good tatt.

I got one of an AR-15/M-16 bolt face on my calf years ago, and now everybody thinks it's a sprocket.

It's kind of nice that it's subtle enough to not be recognized easily, but also sad because most of the people I ride with are military.

You probably won't be winning the TDF, but you're at about the age when most people get into cycling seriously (aka have disposable incomes)
>the average poster here
The only thing average here is "if you don't do it my way you are wrong and stupid", but that's pretty much 4chan as a whole. We get non-cyclists, we get faggot casuals who ride on weekends only, we get people whose idea of "commuting" is rolling 300 yards on a BSO and then locking up their BSO outside to rust, and then, occasionally, we get real cyclists who ride actual bikes that don't suck, every day.

>going fast

Bicycles just don't go that fast, if you want to go fast get a motorbike. In fact, being one of those stravasshole freds will make you universally despised by every other normal cyclist, along with every other person alive.

Distance is a different thing, ride regularly and you'll be cool. Also this:

Europeans don't need cars as there are actual cities.

Within half an hour on foot, I have a halfdozen grocery stores and a dozen malls. Most of my surroundings are forests, if I go straight north there'll just be more trees until I reach the Arctic Ocean.

Goddamn that pic looks like hell on earth

Except it would take 5 minutes to travel that distance in a car and you wont end up sweaty.

I wish I could tell that at them as I go et behind in a narrow bike lane

But riding with her will be awkward.
You ride in front of her and you wonder if she's thinking you're showing off and racing, but if you ride behind her you wonder if she thinks you're a pervert checking out her arse.
Ride side by side and you are an arse for impeding traffic.
So just fap to her facebook photos like a normal person.

>>1001804

Just ask you weird, sweaty creep.

>>1001808
Two cyclists riding abreast isn't impeding traffic.

>>1001760
Look at your tires, there will be size stamped on the rubber sidewall.
