>>1981344Female bodybuilders often get implants because cutting kills their tits so hard. Pathological muscle girls often suffer a similar fate, or at least try hard to make their pecs look like breasts.>olympic-style weightliftersPretty rare in my experience. Most female weighlifters are fridgemode chunkies. But I suppose it's possible since having a little extra fat doesn't hurt anything.

>>1992070Did you say "I have visual on the runway"?It's like calling "no homo" for the CVR. They have no way to tell.
>>1993193>>1993218Nah I was like “I can’t see anything, I hope the runway shows up *MINIMUMS*, let’s go, let’s go, *100* there’s a tree to my right, alright I see the lights “
Have you ever defended yourself against a car while cycling?I've considered executing U-lock justice a few times and knocking off a mirror or something, but it seems like a good way to go to jail or get killed.Recommendations? Stories?
>>1981395Not sure I would call it defence but I've broken mirrors and tail lights of cars parked in bike lanes. Oh an one time a ute overtook me very quickly and shouted something like "fuck off fag" but I caught up in the lights and broke his mirror with my lock, then hightailed it back throught the sidewalk.
>>1988146Glock owners are too stupid to defend themselves. They're more likely to shoot themselves on accident. They always screw it up somehow

Do you guys ever talk to fellow passengers on your public transit?>another week of riding the subway>another week not talking to anyone, barely making eye contact, just standing facing the door/looking at the floor>another week seeing the same people at my home station and never talking to them>another week seeing the same qt girls and never looking at them let alone talking to them, even if a seat opens next to themI know it isn't common for people to talk a lot on the train nowadays with everyone having headphones on but it still feels horrible
>been riding subway for 10 years>have never spoken to a single other person despite seeing all these same people who get on and off with me in my town's stationit doesnt even matter anyway, not like i would tell people any details whatsoever about myself. still living with mommy and daddy in my childhood home at 32 years old, you think im exposing my life to a single person where they can see that? even the people in town who ride their bikes on the train like i do, i cant face that humiliation even though getting to know people in my same town would be a good social experience, i cant do it.
>>1989964i only speak to people i have financial transactions with
>>1990645How often do you take the subway though? I've been taking it multiple times a day for almost 25 years and I get into a conversation every couple of years. Admittedly it's usually because I ran into someone I know. One time I accidentally sat next to a guy I shared a cubicle with 10+ years prior, in another job in another state. I was in a terrible mood at that exact moment and I was ruder than I should have been so we never reconnected.Usually it's just mentally ill people who talk to me when I'm in a certain mood, I guess they can see I'm also not right in the head. They're not so bad really, just strange and lonely. Since my doctor put me on certain medications it has been easier for me to engage in a steady conversation with schizophrenic homeless people. It's good practice in case I ever want to become a normie again.
>>1990706i take it twice a day during commute hours. lots of people on both trains. see lts of people, the same people usually, getting on and off at my home station. im on the train with some of these people for half an hour. i still never talk to anyone.i know times are different now than the long past because 99% of people are on their phones with headphones on so you would actively have to disrupt their experience to talk to them. but i dont think thats hard for normal peope to do.
>>1989833>Do you guys ever talk to fellow passengers on your public transit?Never.The polite thing to do, and the only thing to do on public transport is to stfu and mind your own business. Talking to random people on the train would exhaust me and everyone else and I would have no energy to do anything else. Anyone that talks to strangers on public tranasport is mentally ill.

>>1992827You've clearly not met anyone who's bought a road bike, got a fit, went on a single club ride then found that they zero flexibility from a life of being a cager. This is the kind of shit that caters to that crowd. Plus old men who still want to ride the same bike they got in the 90s.
>>1992833I don't think that's a statistically relevant problem, but let's suppose it was, if some 70 year old MAGA boomer chose to walk past the rows and rows of upright bitch bikes and went straight for the TT bike with the Chris Boardman position and hurt his back that's his problem, "the industry" didn't force him to do that, he did that to himself
Sometimes I think these threads are made by a single person arguing between their personalities. No one cares about none of the crap you described.

Tell me your favourite loco and I'll rate it/base my opinion of you from it/foam at the mouth about it if it's cool or I haven't seen it yet. Pictured is mine, class 170 (in ScotRail saltire blue livery) they're kinda clunky and old but god do they ever make the best engine noise in the world, you aren't a railfan unless you've heard one thunder out of Glasgow central station.

Share your ride, ask for advice, shitpost about 'em, so and on and so on.All posters with pedal less monstrosities like Sur Ron's will be summarily executed.
>>1984404Best Buy sells some cheap ones that seem decent and u can pick them up so it doesn't get shipped and end up broken
>>1984622same 20mph is fine meanwhile roadfags spend just as much for their shitty gear and blow through intersections all the time to conserve speed
>>1992380This is why I prefer conversion kits because of the easy DIY. Some pre-made ebikes are just awful to work on
is fiido a good brand and specifically the fiido t1. to use for city travel and maybe carrying women back to my place from work
Are thinner tires better for bikes that are used in the city and gravel roads mostly?
large tires (2.25" ~ 57mm) are way better than skinnier on rough gravel, it's the difference between walking or floating over it at full speed.
>>1992407>full carbon fatbikewhy?
>>1992407Honestly probably a goofy ass ride I'd love to give er a spinOn the topic of tires, anyone recommend some fast 650b gravel tires in the >= 2.00in range?|
>>1993054race kingsi think rocket rons come in a 650gravelking slicks or rh if you want no knobs (both are 48mm/1.9" though), but rh does make a 2.2" knobby. not too sure about the rr of that one, but i rh tires feel a lot faster than gravelkings on smoother gravel.
Why does this keep happening?
>>1993015This literally happens all the time, it’s just that for some gay (stupid) reason, the media is covering every little thing. It’s like if the news reported every car crash and near miss, there would be 1000 of stories every day. I should know, I’m a pilot
>>1993015Obviously won't happen over France tomorrow due to ATC strike
>>1993016>I should know, I’m a pilotyou say this to the cashier when checking out groceries, or the UPS guy when he delivers a package, don't you?i guess i would too, you guys are hot shit.
>>1993015Those clowns over in ATC need a refresher course on Vitaly Kaloyev.
If you want help picking out a bike, post your height, what you will use the bike for, and a link to your local craigslist.>I want to buy a new bike. What should I watch out for?Don't buy Wal-Mart garbage.Don't buy department store garbage.Beware of amazon and alibaba garbage.>Should I buy from Bikes Direct?If you are clueless enough that you need to ask, no. If you have no mechanical ability, no. If the alternative is walmart, maybe. Ask first.>I want to buy a used bike. What should I watch out for and where should I buy?Craigslist is good for old bikes.

https://lynchburg.craigslist.orghttps://richmond.craigslist.orgI'm familiar with both these cities but I would have to travel to both of them>>1993008I'm looking for an older road bike, ideally something that I could put a rack on. I'm not well versed in bicycles, I've only rode cheap mountain bikes from when I was younger. I would be using it mostly on paved roads, bikepacking being the end goal. I'm 6 foot.
>>1993010if you're inexperienced, looking for vintage and don't want to spend an arm and a leg, i suggest buying a $20-$50 pos, and spending the rest of your budget on basic tools and new tires. this way you can learn what you like and don't like without spending a lot of money. you'll also learn basic maintenance which will be beneficial in the future. if you hate the bike, you just put the old tires back on and re-list it for the same price you paid and try something else. 80s jap bikes are a great value. Miyata, Nishiki, Centurion, Panasonic, Shogun, etc.
>>1993003Putting bikes direct and amazon/walmart bikes in the same category shows you have no idea what you're talking about. Just because there is a cultural taboo against swapping the 105 crankset and putting in fsa and still calling it a "105 build" doesn't mean it's in the same league as grip shifting monstrosities. I agree the marketing is skeezy and the bikes have negative prestige and many of the customers are probably pretty clueless but it's still better than a random craiglist dumpster dive, and btw you'll need mechanical ability on a mail order bike, unless maybe it's a canyon or something where it's meticulously done except for clamping the bars and sticking the front wheel in the dropouts
