@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] A5: I run into similar situations all the time. In addition to what the OP described, a driver who tries to wave me through at a 4-way stop intersection causes the same problem.

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] A4: This sums it up perfectly! It takes elected officials who care about the safety and well-being of people regardless of how they travel, and their effort is empowered further by people who are willing to stand behind them.

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] A3: I drink to thirst. Recent research has shown that listening to your body is a highly accurate indicator of when to hydrate. When it's hot, I make sure I take electrolyte mix rather than pure water to avoid water intoxication.

@ascentale @bikenite

On the bike trail this week. I rode past a kid trying to fix a red and gold flag in his front basket. On the way back I saw this lying in the trailside grass maybe 30 meters further on, so I guess that effort failed.

I assume this is some figure from Hindu or Buddhist mythology, but I am just guessing. No idea what the word is some script is.

Any recs of a site that could read the word?

It wasn't there today.

And our traditional last question: 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!

A5. These events happen to me on a weekly basis. Either I get very aggressive drivers or those who think they are being nice by not following the rules of the road and offering me to illegally proceed. Often I have had to point at the stop sign showing that I do not have the right to proceed. I will wait them out.

@meganL asks:

I bought a POC Cularis helmet that happens to have a magnet clasp. As I've gotten older, my neck skin is no longer tight. For the first time, I managed to very painfully catch my neck skin in the magnet clasp and had a HELL of a time getting it out.

Q6. Are there embarassing/annoying things that have happened to you with your cycle/accessories since becoming old/disabled/temporarily disabled that didn't used to happen?

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

@CharlesSites asks:

I have problems with the occasional motorist being "nice" rather following the rules of the road. I will attempt a left turn and a motorist in the opposite direction attempts to wave me through ahead of him even though he has the right-of-way over me. It throws my timing off, and, more dangerous, is if it happens with 4 lane roads so that other motorists may not stop.

Q5. Have you had an experience where a well-meaning person driving tries to be helpful, but causes another issue? What happened, and how could one avoid similar tricky situations in the future?

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

@sinabhfuil asks:

Q4. What causes cities and countries to install cycling infrastructure?

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

@NNN asks:

I took a 5+ hour moderate-pace bike ride on Monday. I drank about 2 liters of water while riding, but still weighed 2kg less the next morning than the day before (yes, I sweat a lot)

I don't think this would work for (say) #bikeCamping with back-to-back travel days.

Q3. How much water loss is too much, on a long ride?

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

@grammasaurus asks:

It’s Sept and days are getting shorter. I’m determined that I’m NOT going to screw up again this winter by NOT planning for something to do in the coldest months.

I’m thinking a long bike trip, probably in the south where it’s a bit warmer (40’s would be nice).

I don’t have a lot of gear, so probably inn-to-inn style, not bikepacking.

Q2. Do any of you have recommendations for a bike trip? I’m looking at Natchez Trace—what else should I consider?

🇮🇹 Giornata #inbiciallavoro? Non proprio, ho lavorato da casa, ma ho portato mia figlia a scuola in bicicletta!

🇬🇧 #bikeToWorkDay? Not really, I worked from home, but I took my daughter to school by bike!

@[email protected] @[email protected] A8: My daughter is into the current Happy Meals toys, so I end up stopping by this McD's pretty often. Since they don't have cycle racks, I just bring my bike in... #BikeNite #MastoBikes #BikeTooter #McDonalds

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] A1a: From Seattle, WA.

A1b: I usually use the Camelbak Podium Chill. It's not completely insulating but keeps the drink relatively cold in the Seattle summer. I like it also because you don't need to squeeze it to drink from it. You just have to suck it. I do have the Camelbak insulated steel bottle, too, but it doesn't fit snugly into my bottle cage.

@MartyCormack asks about electronic shifting:

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.

Q7: What are the pros and cons of electronic shifting versus cable shifting?

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

@Karstan asks:

Q6. 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?

@gcvsa asks:

I need recommendations for a bicycle home maintenance stand that is capable of holding an ebike.

Let's say max weight of 40 Kg? My Rad Power Bikes RadMission is about 50 lbs (~23 Kg) free of accessories. I don't plan on ever buying anything heavier than that.

Free-standing would probably be best, but I would consider ones designed for permanent installation, either mounted to garage framing or the concrete slab. Trying to spend less rather than more.

Q5. Do you have a maintenance stand to recommend?

@FourT4 asks:

Q4. Have you ever knitted an item of bicycle hardware?

(If not, any items on your cycle related to the fiber arts?)

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

@streetmeme asks:

Q3. What has been your experience with fully housed vs. exposed/partially housed cables?

Wouldn't the exposed portion be a pathway for water/dirt to enter the cable housing?

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

@geonz asks:

Q2. Is anybody else having "follow through" trouble? What's your dangling project?

YES I now have Baby Bianchi ready to ride but she needs a small person to ride her.
NO I haven't figured out howto take the cables or the rear wheel off the Gazelle to make a properlawn ornament... and SCHOOL HAS STARTED but ... I could have done stuff tonight...

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 😉
