E, per la prima volta in vita mia, sono andato per #Padova in bici. Ho fatto il giro delle mura rinascimentali, molto bello e scenografico, quasi tutto su canali, all'ombra. Parchi, monumenti, tante bici e poche auto.

Consiglio ruote larghe, viste le pavimentazioni sconnesse, in ogni caso la bici è ottima per girare queata città, come è evidente dal loro numero enorme in giro 😉

Got told I was just plain weird for having my two main bikes setup with brakes on different hands.

My gravel which I built is UK setup (front brake right hand)

My road bike built up by Italian-based Kazak-owned proteam and American-bought has continental setup (front brake left hand).

I switch things all the time without noticing - everything apart from saddle height which must be correct

A3. The variety of respondents.

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] A7: I don't know how picky this is, but I switched from an 11-speed cassette to the current 12-speed one. The old cassette had 23/25/27/30/34T towards the big end. The new one has 24/28/32/36T. Yes, 36T is nice, but the wider, uneven gaps and one fewer cog drove me crazy for a few weeks. I'm more or less used to it now, but it sure took me a while.

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] A6a: The local advocacy group I belonged to organized a ride event to showcase the lack of safe infrastructure in a neighbourhood. We invited the councilmember who represented that area. A6b: She ended up not riding with us. She had expressed interest but held off her commitment until the last minute, when she told us she wouldn't be able to make it. Looking back, it should've been expected. She turned out to be anti-bike!

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] A5: I wish I had a funny story or two to share. The only things people have said to me while I ride are (1) "Hey do you want to race?" (by a motorcyclist next to me), and (2) "That must be a Roubaix!" (by someone standing on the sidewalk as I stopped nearby)...

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] A2: The biggest change in my cycling life occurred when we bought an e-bike to carry our daughter around a few years ago. That has helped me tremendously in strengthening my legs as I've had to take the same hills on my acoustic bike as my wife does on the e-bike. As a result, I now ride everywhere, even where I used to combine cycling and public transit. 😅

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] A1a: From Seattle, WA. Sadly, I feel the summer is over, too. We at least have a few weeks before getting into the nine gloomy months of the year.

A1b: That's because days get shorter faster as we approach the autumn equinox. Since Seattle is a northern city (sitting at about 47.3 degrees N), we still get plenty of sunlight until 7:30 pm or so. I use a 900-lumen headlight when riding at night. So far I haven't had to use it yet.

Thanks all for the #BikeNite questions tonight. And thanks for answering, reading & discussing.

We had a lot of questions, which is great. There are a couple saved for next week. But please send more as it's great to have a nice queue.

Reply, boost and favorite to keep it going. Thanks for being a part of this community. And you can follow #BikeNite, if you haven't yet. Use the hashtag to help boost awareness!

And our last question this week as usual: your week in a photo.

Q8. What did you see this week? Reply with a photo if you'd like. Cycling related or not is fine. Tell us about it!

#BikeNiteQ #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #MastoBikes cc @bikenite

@pete asks:

I changed a cassette recently to one with a different spread of gears and while working fine it just _feels_ plain wrong.

Q7. How picky or sensitive are you to changes in bike setup, whether that be size/fit or components-related?

#BikeNiteQ #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #MastoBikes cc @bikenite

@bobjonkman and @uxMark ask:

There are municipal elections in Ontario, and cycling advocacy orgs are doing "Rides with the Candidates".

Q6a. Have you done a "Ride with a Candidate"? Does it do any good? That is, are candidates who go on these rides more likely to vote for cycling initiatives after going on a ride?

Q6b. What was the outcome — that is how did candidate act/behave before and after the ride? And how did winners advocate for and/or vote for cycling initiatives if elected to council?

@geonz asks:

Q5. What are some fun an interesting things people have called out to you?"

(Inspired by "Bright F*in lights!!! I could see you 'way up there!" last night, which housemate says based on her observations are probably my pedal blinkies).

#BikeNiteQ #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #MastoBikes cc @bikenite

@rasterweb asks:
My bike has hydraulic disc brakes. Last week I took off the front wheel and put it back on a day later and all was normal.

A few days later I did it again but when I put it back on my front brakes seemed extra grippy! It took very little pressure on the brake lever to activate the brakes.

Q4. Why might have happened?

#BikeNiteQ #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #MastoBikes cc @bikenite

@rand asks:

Q3. What do you love about #BikeNite?

#BikeNiteQ #BikeTooter #Cycling #MastoBikes cc @bikenite

@uxMark asks:

I’ve posted a lot recently about my recently-acquired electric Brompton. The change it’s made to my cycling life has been dramatic, particularly when taking it on a train.

Q2. What big changes have you made to your cycling life? Was it a change in gear? (New bike, new accessory?) Or a change in attitude? (Cycling was for leisure, but now for transportation.) Or a change in context/environment? (Improved cycling infrastructure, or a move to a new place.) Something else?

A4. Not really a lucky charm, but I've got a Northumberland flag on the top cap on one of my bikes. (Unfortunately, the other bikes have a Garmin mount there, or I'd do the same on all.)

A3. Thanks to the Streets Ahead podcast, I recently discovered (to my slight surprise) that Alexei Sayle is a keen cyclist. He had a Campag-equipped Raleigh as a kid, follows all the cycling races, and features his own bike rides on his podcast.

(Definitely a celebrity to UK people of a certain age.)

A2: I have Runcam Thumb Pro W (looking at Thumb 2 now) on the helmet with custom powerbank on the back.
I record in 4K XV (4:3 sensor stretched to 16:9) everytime I ride and after that download everything and transform to 1080p 4:3 using scripts and ffmpeg.
I keep recordings for a month and after that delete them. Also every month I publish #peertube video as @humanpoweredvehicle for others to see what's going on.

This is my pet peeve about Lime devices. They don't need to be locked to a cycle rack. PLEASE don't park them like this and take away the precious space from those of us who have cycles that need to be locked.

@derpostillon Mal ein realer Weihnachtsbaum! Ich bin jetzt kein/e Politiker*In aber im #ADFC-Münsterland #verkehrspolitisch unterwegs. Mein #Weihnachtsbaum ist aus #Fahrradteilen #upcycled und steht für #Verkehswende #Nachhaltigkeit in der Fietserei der ADFC-Münsterland Geschäftsstelle und ab dem 22.12.2023 in meiner Wohnung. #fedibikes #mastobikes #Fahrrad

#Frostpendeln.de #MdRzMöbelgeschäft und mit beladenem #Lastenanhängergespann nicht nur obligatorische Fotos vor dem Schloss in #Münster angefertigt, sondern auch auf einer der Fahrradstraßen von Münster! Übrigens, den großen #Lastenanhänger können sich Aktive des #ADFC_Münster-s auch für großvolumiges o. langes Ladegut ausleihen, wenn sie an ihrer Leeze eine Weberkupplung montiert haben. Eine Einweisung zum Gespannfahren und zur Ladegutsicherung ist selbstverständlich! 😉 #Fedibikes #mastobikes

Jemand Empfehlungen für ein preiswertes gutes #Trekkingrad, das aber auch im popeligen Stadtverkehr taugen würde?

Worauf würdet ihr bei den Komponenten achten & wieso?

🚲 Le temps se gâte à nouveau, je me replie sur le centre d’Angers. J’ai du temps avant mon train retour. Après une petite balade, j’en profite pour découvrir une spécialité locale : « La Gouline », une sorte de tourte feuilletée aux rillauds, champignons, échalotes et tomme Angevine. Avec une salade verte pour le côté diététique👌😇 #VoyageAVelo #randovelo #cyclo #cyclotourisme #mastobike #mastobikes #cyclisme #bikepacking #voyage #velovoyage #bikeTrips

Genau meine Meinung: Down with electronic shifting! Oder in den Worten von Ernst F. Schumacher: "Jeder intelligente Narr kann die Dinge größer und komplexer machen. Es braucht einen Hauch von Genie und eine Menge Mut, um sich in die entgegengesetzte Richtung zu bewegen".

Heute ist es mal Zeit für einen winzigen #BikeMaintenance Tag. Der alte Sattel am #TrekkingRad von 2018 war jetzt am Ende und durch den Schaden hat er dann beim #Fahrradfahren auch schon wirklich ungünstig am Oberschenkel gescheuert. Jetzt wird der alte gegen einen Terry Figura Men ersetzt. Die erste kleine Testrunde auf dem #Fahrrad war schon mal gut :)
#fedibikes #mastobikes

Heute ist der Burley Flatbed eingetrudelt - meine eigene kleine #Verkehrswende. Er war problemlos zusammengebaut und lässt sich genauso schnell wieder zusammen klappen.
Morgen steht mit ihm der erste große Einkauf an, bin sehr gespannt.
Falls jemand von euch gute Tipps zu diesem Anhänger oder Fahrradanhänger grundsätzlich hat, gerne her damit.
