    End to end Illinois Ride

    I saw a flyer for this the other day. I did a similar ride last year, but don't have time to tackle it this year. My ride was mixed surface so all road should be smoother.

    Rend Lake Bike Trail

    I get stressed riding on bike trails. I'm not the fastest guy around but I ride kinda fast and don't want to put others at risk.

    What's the last organized bike ride you rode?

    Yesterday! Hard to get the motivation to get on the bike. Had to rely on discipline and bargaining with myself to ride to get dinner and ice cream to get it done.

    The Black Bibs Summer Kit

    I was looking on the website at the bibs...they look extremely thin on the legs. So you're saying not see-through at all? The chamois section is standard material it just looks like the difference is in the legs. Can your wife confirm that they're not see-through?

    Electronic everything...

    Seeing that it's just a patent is a good thing. They're just trying to make sure noone else gets it first. Patents don't have to work

    Anyone riding today?

    Black bottoms always, but light tops works. It also shows off some of my ink which, IMO, makes me look "cooler"

    What all bikes do you have and what's next on the list?

    That aventon looks like a good deal. I love the idea of an e-mtb because i'm not good on a MTB yet so getting comfortable going faster while not having to actually work as hard can only be a benefit.

    New to Cycling? Here Are Some Tips to Get You Started

    I don't necessarily think that is fair to you though. There are plenty of rides with different fitness level requirements. We really try to have rides that are A, B, and C groups

    Electronic everything...

    Hopefully with more experience that will go away. It's something I regularly work on.

    Electronic everything...

    tbf, that's why I ride disc brakes even on the road bike. It allows for more "panic braking" if needed, although you shouldn't.
