    "Onesie Ride

    Mother of God nooo... If this actually happens in a "non- charitable" context with a noticeable number of forum members participating, I shall offer my immediate resignation from the forum.

    There, that should get the ball rolling...

  • I want to by a cycling cap...

    You can sponsor me not to wear a onsie

  • Done.

  • In fact I would sponsor the entire world population not to wear one, not in public anyway...

  • I threw up a little as I was riding home last night, didn't stop though.

  • That story corresponds with what the guy tailing you home said...

    Is it time to start calling out bad cyclists? >>>

  • I stopped at all the red lights and had a hat on, it's almost a helmet.

  • No one in their right mind would ride under the influence of alcohol not wearing a hat.

  • So you only ride on tequila?

  • Safety first, safety first...

  • I'm afraid of the rain. Went out and bought a set of zaffiros in the hope that they'll have a little bit more grip that the ridiculously slick Luganos I have on at the moment.

    Last winter I ended up with the right side of my face all swollen and a dislocated shoulder when my rear wheel slipped out from underneath me. I was rolling along slower than walking pace.

  • Whatever your problem is, Zaffiros are never the solution.

  • Luganos are actually pretty good in the wet.

  • Tubs for the win...

  • Luganos are actually pretty good in the wet.

    The kevlar strip yoke is pretty much worn out on the front and the back, so it's just like a slick.

    Had a little slip turning at a roundabout today and it just reminded me.

    Was thinking about getting GP4000s but they're expensive and I heard they wear really quick when brklzz.

    The zaffiros would just be for October-February.

  • If you're actually "scared" of the rain i.e. not comfortable riding in wet conditions, perhaps you should start using a break, before worrying about your choice of tires... Riding brakeless is bad enough as it is, but to do so without 100 percent confidence is a recipe for disaster. Don't get me wrong I'm not taking the moral high ground here, I ride brakeless myself... Just saying.

  • If you're scared then just get drunk first, only tequilla mind.

    Yeah I know what you mean, and I did on my last bike during the winter, but I'm riding a precursa with alpinas so I've no real choice but to go brakeless.

    I'm not really afraid as such, I'm just always wary and looking to decrease the risk. I suppose the whole thing about the tires is because of the last slip during the winter I figured I'd just get a new set and ploug through it.

  • Obviously get some tires that are fit for purpose... and lower the tire pressure a little.

  • I'm riding a precursa with alpinas so I've no real choice but to get equipment appropriate for my uses

    Either do something about it or quit bitching.

  • I just bought a Garmin.

    And opened a Strava account :-/

    wtf?!

    I bought some rapha yesterday. I'm such a roadie douchbag.

    Feel the need to cleanse myself on some mucky mountain trails.

  • I ride off road in Rapha kit.

  • I just bought a Garmin.

    wtf?!

    Watch out, it's a slippery slope. I just bought a cadence sensor and am upgrading my Strava account to premium...
