    #BikeNitePQ
    My road bike at home has an issue with shifting, I don't know if the cable is bad (most likely), the shifter is broken or if it's something else.
    The road bike I'm provided this week on tour has electronic shifting, which is intriguing since I go through shifter cables once or twice a year.
    Q: What are the pros and cons of electronic shifting versus cable shifting?

  2. Question for #bikenitepq : Are there any current or former professional bike mechanics on the Fediverse that would be interested/willing to share insights about the profession? What was your professional journey like? Any warnings/advice for someone considering a career change into the profession? Would getting a certification from an organization like the United Bicycle Institute be worthwhile?

  3. Has anyone ever done any cycling around Rivière du Loup?

    Our planned trip to Ontario will probably involve a stop there. If there's a good day cycle in that area we might stay an extra night.

    And any suggestions for bike friendly hotels there would also be welcome. Or #airbnb ?
