Haha! - We have special bike induction loops hereDo you guys over there have traffic lights which are only triggered by a sensor? ... And the lights don't detect bikes!</rant>
OK thenSummer next year then?
Hey, I'm pretty sure I was the first one to bring LMGTFY to TRF. :tongue:
Besides, I can ride a bike, I just don't have one besides my 20" wheel (not frame) one with backwards pedal breaks.
Blue light special :wink:

Light Machine Gun to fight you? (what does LMGTFY stand for?)
This is MY choice of a bike
It gets about 1/78 of a mile per gallon, so it's a good thing you burn 1790 calories per hour pushing it!
Do you guys over there have traffic lights which are only triggered by a sensor? There's one on my commute at a T-junction going on to a fairly fast road, with pretty bad visibility either way if you're joining. And the lights don't detect bikes! I've tried just about everything I can think of, but the only options are to either wait for a car to come along and trigger it, or jump the light when it's safe to join the main road. Drives me nuts.

I took my motorized bike out today...passed a whole bunch of Spandex riders and all their dirty looks:lol:
Very nice! You should get some full on leathers and grow a nice Billy Gibbons beard.

Looks like a nice ride, eugene. Now get it out there and get some dirt and get some of the shiny covered up. I'm still waiting for the last of the snow to melt and the frost to go out of the ground so we can hit the dirt! I bought some new wheels for the 29er, and I can't wait to try em out.
snip...Then there is the condition of the roads these days. Many a year ago I used to ride a bicycle equipped with 28 spoke wheels with 220gm Clement Sew-up tires. I could ride those tires until the casing was showing through the tred and never suffer a flat nor wreak those lightweight wheels. By the time I had to discontinue my riding I was using the heaviest tire/wheel combination that could fit the frame and I suffered flats at least weekly and dented rims about twice a year.
Who the hell wants to commute on a thirty+ pound bike just to avoid all the above???
Continental Ultra Gatorskins. From the Atlantic to the Pacific (4,506.7 miles) on a single pair. Six flats:1 tire wire, 1 unknown, 1 internal object chaffing, 3 goat heads—and that was my fault for walking the bike through a field. Great tires.
Anyone want to join me on the Tour de Summerlin in Las Vegas on 30 Apr, 80 mile route? Now I just need a rocket themed jersey, other than my US Air Force one.
Oh yeah, this fitness plan combined with Weight Watchers for diet planning has allowed me to lose 170 pounds w/o surgery since 1/18/2010. Not bad if I do say so myself!
