@plactagonic@f.cz asks:

I just “sent order” for custom made full frame bag. *

Q7. Has anyone had any experience with custom made bike bags? Are they what you wanted or you would buy something off the shelf?

  • It is more a friend of a friend who does sawing for fun and reclames material from all over the place and it is first time she will do something like this.

Spot the moment when I was overtaken on the sprint by a car, that then braked because UNLIKE ME it couldn't pass between the parked car and the Surprise Oncoming Car That Nobody Could Have Planned For 😤😆 First rear wheel lock-up on the new bike 😬 35 kph to 0, in 2 car lengths. Ah well I missed the strong easterlies this week, I hope they return soon. All the good times on this road are, of course, set with tailwind. Like 20% faster. I'll just have to do my all out effort earlier before the traffic wakes up. #cycling #BikeToot #velophant

Och, it's fiendish, the only significant way to cut down distance and climbing is to go Whitley Bay - Morpeth - Kielder and cut out the first drinks stop at Elsdon, saves 12km & 300m. Might be a good idea anyway because of all the excitement at the start and the "relay" riders who'll be going faster. Any locals please advise - any good reasons to go up to Elsdon if you were riding from Whitley Bay to Kielder? Later on it pays to stick to the route, it's slightly shorter via Sanquhar but off route for the last 80k sounds like a recipe for no support. #cycling #Newcastle #Morpeth #Northumberland

I have Shimano GRX groupset and the rear shifting has been pretty erratic lately. Got a new chain and cassette, replaced cables and housing, cleaned and lubricated everything, and it's still not working great. I wonder if something is broken/worn inside the shifting/brake lever (ST-RX600). Does that ever happen (after 10 000 km)? I am an experienced home-mechanic but never took a drop bar shifting lever apart, judging by the looks it's a bit scary. #GRX #gravel #cycling #HomeMechanic

@CathyTuttle@social.ridetrans.it @BicycleDutch@mastodon.social The flow is mesmerising. When I visited #Utrecht on a cycle tour, I got it all wrong. Being so used to car-centric places, too much caution, thinking and looking in my part caused problems for everyone else. Sorry to the good people of Utrecht from a well-intentioned visitor. #BikeTooter #Cycling #Netherlands

I've been to look at the road works on the A57 Manchester Road just west of Sheffield. There is a trench in the road and lots of fencing, but the route is open for pedestrians and cyclists. #Sheffield #Cycling #BikeTooter

Cyclists and pedestrians now have a way over the 'concrete river' of Highway 1 in Burnaby The city officially opened the new $27.8 million piece of infrastructure on Monday, which is intended to bridge a key gap in Burnaby's pedestrian and cyclist network. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/burnaby-pedestrian-cyclist-overpass-9.7180622?cmp=rss

Today's weather was really nice and the #assenliggers went for a bike ride as we do on Sundays. @twilwel@mastodon.nl, @TheoZw@mastodon.nl and Gert provided the excellent company today. My personal target for today was to reach a total of 0.08 Gm on the bike computer in my Mango velomobile, which was reached a few km before I got home. 84 km in total. Not the longest ride we've ever done, but certainly one of the sunniest. #regel17 #velomobile #cycling #biketooter #netherlands #drenthe #groningen #friesland #fietsen #ligfietsen

I have a proposal to prevent this.

  1. The most senior UK google exec takes the ponts and fines for any offence.
  2. The fines are proportional to income. 3.once banned from driving, the next most senior exec has to take the points.

@dangillmor@mastodon.social TBH, I'd consider any Cyclist poppin' 9x19mm +P+ SJHP (regular 9mm.won't go through tires) into any of those shit vehicles' tires an act of "self & mutual defense" against murder by car… Or just place Calthrops on the markings if not sprinkle them before said cars. #Sarcasm #Commentary #NotLegalAdvice #Waymo #CarBrain #CarCentrism #cycling #safety #RoadSafety

Waymo, a Google-owned company, which officially launched its self-driving taxi fleet in London earlier this month, has told cycling campaigners that it is “normal practice” for their taxis to veer into and block cycle lanes #cycling #roadSafety https://road.cc/news/driverless-taxis-veering-into-cycle-lanes-normal-practice-says-waymo

I've just washed my e-bike and given it a good looking over for wear or damage. Everything seems fine but, as I've never had an e-bike before, I thought I should check the user handbook to see if they recommend any specific checks or maintenance. I now know that I have RIM WEAR INDICATORS! Woo! What wizardry is this?! I've just checked my cheapy Decathlon folder and that has them too. My Raleigh Amazon doesn't, so this technology must've come in some time in the last 40 years. You look away for 10 minutes and BAM! everything has changed. I'd actually thought that the Decathlon bike just had really soft rims. 😄 #Cycling #Bike
