I wish to rant about #bike technology. My rant may not generalize to anyone else, but I've patiently read other people's rants, this one is mine. I've been riding a #cargobike to work and errands since 2006, year round, accumulating 10s of thousands of miles in the process. I expect my bikes t…
Just used the double-decker bike parking for my #swapfiets at Den Haag Hollands Spoor for the first time. Mind fucking blown. Really makes you wonder what the authorities in Berlin are thinking.

My road bike has a BB30 (press-fit) bottom bracket. Yesterday I noticed it was creaking, so I pulled out my $50 BB30 removal tool, refreshed my memory on how to remove a bottom bracket with a bit of YouTube, pulled the thing apart, cleaned and greased everything, put it back together, and now it doesn’t creak. So satisfying. #BikeTooter
Looking forward to the @… community bike ride in downtown Burlington on New Year's Day. It should be calm and quiet out. -9°C though; hope everyone layers well. A cup of hot chocolate or apple cider afterward is going to be amazing!

The medical facility I go to for PT has a bike rack but it looks like garbage. It is bolted down but just does not look secure.
It's in the parking structure, so it's not exactly out in public... maybe that's a good thing?
But also, I can't ride my bike in the parking structure.

I like the sound of "A bike lane will be constructed in both Eastbound & Westbound Silver Spring".

Sorry I'm late, had to argue with car-brained people about the new bike lanes on Lisbon.
"I've never seen anyone ride a bike on Lisbon!"
"Do I have to shovel two sidewalks now!?"
"People only ride bikes 4 months of the year."
And so on...

Is there a decent / standard way to convert bike lights from a rubber-strap mount to a rack's rear reflector / tail light mounting tab? (What is that thing even called?)
I'd consider a short length of pipe bolted to the tab - is that a janky mess? Should I just buy a different light?

I decided to try a short ride today to see how I feel later on. (Back paid and leg-wise.) I did not dress warm enough but was only out for 20 minutes.
I tried to (slowly) ride across some ice to see how that feels and quickly learned I need to avoid all ice. If I do ride more next winter studded tires are a must.

I kind of want to make a bumper sticker that says "Born to ride a bike, Forced to drive a car" because with the weather starting to improve I am feeling restless and also helpless.
I may get the basement trainer bike set up so I can just try some real gentle riding when I am feeling well enough.

On Saturday I did a bike ride and I very carefully tried to ride over some small patches of ice to familiarize myself with how it feels.
Yesterday a friend of mine was out for a gravel ride, did just fine, was all done and rode through a parking lot, hit some ice, went down hard, broke their hip. Argh!
