uLock New York lock and an air tag hidden under the seat or somewhere else sneaky. Take photos of your bike and serial number. Register it with your renters insurance or homeowners insurance. Park it in public, visible spaces. Go ride your bike! People will steal anything if they really want. All you can do is deter them

I think saying “it takes skill” and “probably requires you to be fit” are contradictory to your point. I would also argue that billiards is technically a sport. Golf is technically a sport.

Hey not trying to be an internet jerk, just wanted to point out that his last name is Walz not “Waltz”. Hope you have a great day.

Have you ever seen the frozen food section of a grocery store?

What is the “304” referring to?

I’d love any suggestions on what to use for mobile (Chrome on iOS) and YouTube via an app on my TV

Is this a Wake reference?

I’m shopping mainly for steel frame bikes. Here are a few I’m considering:

Quicker, more aero gravel ish bikes: Soma Double Cross Surly Midnight Special Basi le Montreal

More all terrain, more upright geo, kind of ATB bikes: Soma Wolverine All City Gorilla Monsoon (brand is shutting down) Basi Hog’s Back

Others I often see recommended and discussed: Surly cross check Kona Jake Salsa Marakesh (touring) Canyon brand in general

If your priority is to do some amateur races, im sorry if none of these suggestions really help you. As others have suggested, think about the tire size you want to run and make that clearance a priority.

What is it with this article quoting something but then embedding a different tweet? Wouldn’t you want to show the tweet in which she said the thing you are saying she said?

I’m sorry, that was the top level comment user. That’s my mistake.

Assuming others see you is like planning to make this situation happen.

I mean you’re making a lot of assumptions about the situation here. The only piece of context the article provides is that they were at an intersection (doesn’t state what kind), the cyclists were already going through and “she just came right across and split the group.”

It doesn’t say if there was a hill for the oncoming traffic which could have caused them not to see the car before the group began to cross. It doesn’t say that the cyclists all saw the car and decided “you know what we have enough time let’s just go.” It doesn’t say she was on her phone (though that is what my assumption is).

What we know is that she, intentionally or not, killed someone because “she didn’t see them.” How could you possibly fault a group of 10 people for this?

Editing to add: Your argument is all about trust. You can trust or not trust anyone to do anything and all that does is increase or decrease your chances of a critical outcome like this. I ride very defensively and very visibly. Safety vest, front and rear cameras with lights, the works. At a certain point the only thing I can to do increase my odds of not getting hit while riding is just not riding my bike, which is not an option for me or many other people.

Why would you not expect to see other road users at an intersection? You would expect to see a car, why not a cyclist?

Not me! I’ll take a pack of this Chewlie’s gum right here.

Nice

It’s not an accident it’s manslaughter.
