I am a railway fan from Moscow. In my free time, I make videos of trains, subways, and transportation. Ask questions about my activities, and the transport of my country, stereotypes, in general, everything that is interesting, I will try to answer.

Disasters never have one root cause and neither did the destruction of cycling. But I know some important milestones in the decline and fall: 1. COVID 19. Enough said. 2. Full suspension mountain bikes. Enough said. 3. Reddit. Enough said. 4. Twitter. Enough said. 5. British "people". Enough said. 6. The d-tch. Enough said. 7. The state of Utah. Enough said. 8. Zwift, Peloton, "Spin Class", and other cancer. Enough said. What were some other key moments?

I'm having a difficult time deciding on what I'd enjoy most for a weekend/overnight fishing trip boat. I've kind of broken down my wants but its still kind of difficult>reliable enough to run trouble free for 6 month stretches >500 naut. Mile range >purchase price below $20k >space for a full week aboard with 4 people total if needed So far my 2 top choices have been a bristol with a skeg rudder and fin keel, or a small bertram flybridge like a 28 or something close. Anyone have experience with either sailboats or offshore fishing? I've only been out a few times on a center console which was great to fish off but pretty much only had some bench seats to sit on and had next to no cover from sun.

>>2060805 >Buying them's the cheap part. I'm tired of this myth. I bought a $15k sailboat (30 ft) two years ago and outside of moorage fees I've spent like $400 on maintenance and repairs, and that includes buying a polishing machine and servicing the sails.
If you buy a good boat and take care of it, I really don't see how it can cost these huge figures people are talking about.

An entry level new bike, that is agreeable to ride, not dragged down by antiquated standards like QR, that you won't regret buying, nor immediately feel the urge to swap out half the components because of cut corners, cost approximately USD $1500 at standard retail prices as of late 2024, give or take a few hundred (depending on the finer details). Now, the prices are going to go up by at least 20%, and the smaller independent brands are going to go under as only the largest players will have the spare cash to ride out the sudden loss of consumer confidence. The most interesting and original bike products will simply disappear from the market permanently until the next wave of prosperity (which may be entirely concentrated somewhere far away and foreign, so that only the wealthiest of your peers will be able to import and use such goods). How does that make /n/ feel?

>>2064233 >can't find tires Weird, I've always been able to just ask my local bike shop if they can replace any part, and they usually have something if not 2 or more options for any specific part. I don't really care for parts originality much - if it fits on the bike and works without too much of a hassle, it'll have to do. This is how I have gone through 2 gearboxes, 2 sets of tires, new brake discs and a new chain already. I think sometime in the next month I might have to replace either the gears or the pedals too - I'm feeling some unevenness while riding.
If a bike is using proprietary or otherwise rare specific parts, I really don't know why you would bother buying it to begin with (unless you're a 40-something with more money than God to throw at this as a hobby). Otherwise, spare parts hopefully shouldn't be that rare.

>>2064273 I might have been using the wrong terminology. The actual hub gear hasn't been changed to my knowledge, but the gear selector and the linkages have needed replacement.

>>2064280 >I call the things that don't have gears in them "gearboxes" why are you giving advice on this board? I mean ok you're esl but so are half the people here. you can very easily use the same internet you're using to browse and post with to look up these definitions.

My apologies for the poor English, I should have looked it up indeed. I was too hasty.

How big can sail boats get? Is there an upper limit?
Anonymous
Quoted By:
>>2061055 The problem with sailing ships is that you can't stack containers on the deck. They would have to be xbox-huge to offset that drawback. Technically, it's not that big of a deal, but practically it will cause some issues. Upper limit is dictated by the layout of harbors, bridges, etc.
