    General Bike Thread (Desiderata, Questions, Pics)

    Anyone recommend a solid, moderately priced road clincher tire (700x23) for mostly training and some racing? I'm leaning towards either the Hutchinson Atom Comp, Vredestein Fortezza SE, or the Michelin Kromion. All are priced around $25-30 per tire on different sites. For budget tires I'd...

    Just finished a 20 day water fast

    You know, the sad thing is that ten years ago when I was 19, I was probably gullible and impressionable enough to entertain the same ideas and beliefs as the OP. My dad also believes all this pseudoscience bullshit, and it's sad really. I haven't yet figured out exactly what quality allows a...

    Morning Smoothie Recipe

    If you're using a few cups of the above with added juice to make a smoothie then that muffin is not your first carb of the day. In fact there are more carbs in that smoothie than I probably eat total most days. My Smoothie- handfuls of mixed greens, kale, whey protein with stevia and ice...

    Morning Smoothie Recipe

    I make a big tupperware container (the kind oft used for cereals, i think it's 4litre) of mixed fruit salad every 6-7 days so it takes no time in the morning to make a smoothy. Typical contents include; a pineapple, diced bag of green grapes, 1/2 pint of fresh berries, usually blackberrys or...

    Apple Cider Vinegar/Honey/Garlic

    About a week. I tried today for the first time in years, just put too much vinegar today, 2 tablespoons, a touch of honey and 1/2 clove garlic. As far as it being bullshit, each of the three have been used for thousands of years as their own individual remedy. Honey is a natural anti-biotic...

    Recently made a Hitler-Jugend cut video:

    You know, one thing making this all kind of creepy is that you're all calling it Hitler Jugend. And not, you know, Hitler Youth. One of those two sounds a lot more like the speaker might not believe the holocaust happened, you know? no, actually. Merely using the german word for 'youth' doesn't...

    ART - Active Release Therapy?

    I tried it for issues in my upper back/neck. I had a bit of a recurring "kink" that would cause the surrounding muscles to bind up and cause other issues. (stiffness, headache, dull pain etc) I can't say it was really effective for me. I went in seeking a targeted therapeutic...

    General Bike Thread (Desiderata, Questions, Pics)

    the funny/sad thing is.... 17lbs is considered "obese" by roadbike standards... I wouldn't disagree, but I'll surmise that its obese only by those who obsess about bike weights so the "standard" is set by folks who are fixated on the weight of their bike I know a fair number of committed...

    Just finished a 20 day water fast

    You're wrong. People living thousands of years ago lived to advanced ages. Ever hear of Adam, Noah etc ? They lived to 900+ years and yes it's real years because as generations passed the lifespans became shorter and shorter until the max age of man was listed as 120 yrs. And it's funny but no...

    Winter boots that aren't ugly

    There's a company here in Quebec that makes them, picking one up tomorrow. http://www.garneauslippers.com/p-57-...n-insoles.aspx awesome. I've wondered where something like that could be had. Retailer down the street from me too. these would have worked also to extend comfort range; (the...

    Slim climbing pants

    Like the above poster said, Patagonia is great, as are some of the other companies listed. Arc Teryx is great, and has a really cool logo also. That being said, here is my suggestion regarding climbing pants. I think the original poster should get some "ripstop" cargo pants for climbing, here...

    General Bike Thread (Desiderata, Questions, Pics)

    just curious, would anyone know if these fat tired bikes really work well on snow? (not that we have snow here, I really am just curious) yes. There is a limit of course, but yes. Big difference.

    Thoughts on shaving your legs

    Apart from the aesthetics a couple legitimate (to a degree) benefits for cycling are; Cold weather embrocation. Rubbing embro on a pair of hairy stumps is a mess before and after. MTB; a lot easier / quicker to clean the salt crusted mud/dust/sunscreen film off of a less hairy leg. This can...
