Thankfully found some balance to the pozz
Any foodies here need to take up cycling. 2,200 calories burned in one ride.
sheesh
how fatigued does that make you?
Depends how hard I push. I can go at a walking pace equivalent, a jogging pace, a running pace, a sprinting pace. Strava will also calculate the training load based on heart rate and power meter to see how long of a recovery you need for the intensity you exerted.
I went decently hard on this ride, so more than 24 hours for full recovery, but no so hard that I need a day off of exercising.
I'm interested in seeing the math behind that
@Tanner - SC I want to get into cycling. I now live in a city and know nothing about good bike brands. Aside from obviously googling for resources on my own time, what would be a good starting point for getting into cycling seriously?
And by seriously I mean tracking my workouts like you do so I receive that data, a serious but hopefully affordable bike brand, and maybe an app for finding popular cycling routes.
* Determine if you want to do road cycling or mountain biking or a bike thatโs a mix of the two. Theyโre kind of like trucks vs cars, quite different designs
* Trek is my most recommended brand. They are the only brand 100% owned by Americans, based in rural Wisconsin, and have pro-America names for their products like โBooneโ and โCrocketโ. The biggest brand in the USA, Lance Armstrong rode a Trek for each of his 7 Tour De France wins.
* Specialized is #2 brand I recommend, they innovate the most, based in bay area California, sold 49% of the company to the Taiwanese. Cannondale is #3 recommended, based in Connecticut, sold 100% of company to Canadians. Giant is the worldโs largest brand, but theyโre entirely Taiwanese and a bit cheap.
Strava is by far the most popular cycling app
You're the best. Thank you much, I'm going to look into all this now!
When you buy a bike, ask the bike shop to โfitโ the bike to you and ask them about local group rides. If you want to read a book about intro to cycling, I recommend <https://durianrider.com/products/durianriders-lean-body-bible> It also comes with a lot of nutrition advice which you are free to ignore (I like that part too)
If you want road cycling, you can enter at a variety of price points and still be fast. This would be a great start, let me know how that falls in your budget:
@BryceB-ND any progress? Watching any of the Tour De France?
Saw a big fake deer on today's ride
This is making me want to take up cycling

Just before I snapped this picture, the donkey was standing with his face against the fence in a hilarious pose because it was the only corner of the yard that had the least bit of shade.
Average cadence of 100, spin to win!
That is crazy, 50 miles
Do you eat at all during ?
Yeah, I eat Clif bars or Gu gels or honey or Gatorade on rides longer than about 35 miles, else I run out of glycogen in my muscles.
Okay good I know youre human then
๐
You know you're in the south when you have that lovely red dirt ๐
gotta love that clay
That house is beautiful
@Tanner - SC At what price point for bikes is everything considered no good ?
Like $500 and down or ?
I'll be honest, anything above that is totally more than I ever want to spend on a bike
But I know nothing about them either I am just now taking a glance at everything that you were nice enough to link me to.
Tour De France got the gas! It was like anudda shoah!

Cool 3D demonstration straight out of Tron demonstrating how bicycle races are won:

The struggle is real.
And so is the sweat.
Stupid white western liberals went on a diversity bicycle tour of the middle east and the expected happened, at least 4 dead.
> in Tajikistan, a car swerved into a group of seven cyclists on purpose, hitting several. Assailants then got out of the car and stabbed the group.

Ya they could have went to beautiful Haiti.
My great grandmother sent us a postcard from Haiti when I was really young
She did not think highly of the place
Would repri myself if I reported her thoughts on the country verbatim
2,400 calories burned this morning
The dream garage. Not mine (yet).
If you fund my dream garage Iโll fund yours. Lol
@JesseJames only if youโre a ... RC car enthusiast, haha.
I would add a couple traxxas trucks to the long list of cars I would love to have. The only pedal power I have in my current garage are bmx bikes.
This new website turned my 4-hour bike ride into a 70-second arial view summary:

Holy crap that's so far
When you're having fun, you don't want to stop ๐
I wonder how many calories they burned
@Reinhard Wolff
All of them. ๐คฃ
Great pics.
@Tanner - SC I like their taste in architecture.
Is that in SC @Tanner - SC ?
@Madbent Yes sir, in the Greenville SC area.
@Tanner - SC gotcha, looked too flat to be upstate, too dry to be the low country, wrong vegetation for the midlands
